Title: Mad Men
Post by: Pugnate on Friday, February 04, 2011, 05:11:23 PM
So who watches this? On the third season right now. It is a very well made show.

Some of the social norms of that period feel so shocking now.

Great show.  Love it.  Some of the best TV happening right now.

They really know how to smoke their cigarettes too.

Yep.  As an ex-smoker, it's kinda hard to watch sometimes.

Damn.  Maybe I should watch this before I try to quit again.

It's a great show. My sister and I watch it regularly. We finished up the 4th season a couple of months ago when it aired. I like the show but I do find that some of the story arcs tend to drag on for a bit.

haha that is exactly what I was thinking through the first season. I was wondering how the show would impact people who had just quit smoking. :P

I think what I like best about the show is how there hasn't been a single slanty eyed mofo on so far. Not one.

My brother would agree with you.

I'll admit I won't re-watch episodes. It's a show where once I have the story I don't feel a need to revisit any episodes, except for scenes of Joan (Christina Hendricks) or Megan (Jessica Paré, Season 4).

I'll still take Mad Men reruns over "reality TV" programming any day.

Well, I'm sold. Sounds like my kind of show - I'm going to start watching immediately.

When the Chinese rule the world, I am going to pretend to be one of them so I can have you all put in front of firing squads. And because our eyes are so slanted, we'll have a hard time hitting you so you'll probably be shot several times all over before you actually die
