Mad Men

Mad Men Logo Set in 1960s New York, the sexy, stylized and provocative AMC drama Mad Men follows the lives of the ruthlessly competitive men and women of Madison Avenue advertising, an ego-driven world where key players make an art of the sell. I love this show so much. It's perfect every Sunday night. Swooooooooon.

  Mad Men - Almost makes me want to get cable.

Almost makes me want to get cable.

I'm very picky about what I take in on TV. I think most of it is trash, yes. But this series is top drawer, with fine writing, complex and vexing characters, and an authenticity to the period it portrays from the costumes, to the sets, and to the issues it examines week after week. It has held up in quality each season. view more

  Mad Men - Mad About Mad Men

Mad About Mad Men

My partner and I don?t have cable so wouldn?t typically have access to this show but thanks to Netflix Instant Queue we are finally able to catch up on the last few seasons! We are whizzing through the show (already at the end of Season 2 after just a month or two). This is the perfect show for us. I love the drama, the costumes (if only my closet was the same as Betties?). My partner loves the drama and the lines from Don Draper (he is so incredibly smooth). We are now huge fans of the show and will be interested in watching future seasons as well. The styling on the show is phenomenal. A must see?especially if you are a Netflix Instant subscriber! view more

  Mad Men - Mad Men Mania

Mad Men Mania

We recently got addicted on Mad Men on Netflix. It's a great show. I've always been a history buff and it's fantastic to see a slice of another time. The sin factor is TOTALLY overdramatized though. It is constant smoking, drinking, and affairs. The show would do better to concentrate more on other storylines and issues rather than just going for the shock factor all the time. It makes me sad that Hollywood can't come up with anything better than sex every scene. view more

  Mad Men - Love the Details

Love the Details

Mad Men - Love the Details How does Don make bad behavior look soooooo cool?!?! Ha! One of my friends started working on this show this season, so I thought I would finally check it out... Added ALL the disks to my Netflix queue. I was instantly sucked in! I really love the behind-the-scenes stuff showing you all the thought to details that goes into a period piece like this. It's not an easy thing to do. The stylists and set peeps deserve some serious props for what they do! I even went out and bought the book "Sex and the Single Girl" by Helen Gurley-Brown to get an idea of what ladies were reading back then! Too much fun! view more

  Mad Men - Great Show!

Great Show!

My husband and I have been hooked since the beginning. We love to hate Don Draper! His character should be dead(actually all of the characters) from the unbelieveable amounts of alcohol & cigarettes that they consume both in and out of the office! view more

  Mad Men - Great show

Great show

This show is great on so many levels! It's aesthetically pleasing, and showcases its era beautifully. The characters are all incredibly flawed, but very interesting. Overall, just a great show with a great cast. Can't wait for the next season! view more

  Mad Men - Timeless Elegence

Timeless Elegence

This show balances a good amount of drama with the history of the time period. I enjoy watching not only for the story lines and the characters but to also get a glimpse at the 60's culture, fashion, etc. Disappointed there will be a delay for the next season but looking forward to it all the more! view more

  Mad Men - Season 5 of ?Mad Men? Is Delayed Until 2012

Season 5 of ?Mad Men? Is Delayed Until 2...

One of my favorite tv shows of all time Maybe right behind "The Wire." Pooh pooh on the delay, but I will wait patiently. This show is worth it. Anyways, looks like the show will tap out at 7 seasons - which is probably a season too long. That said, any of the three upcoming seasons can go in any direction and play with time intervals at the behest of Matthew Wiener and his team of writers. So, it's not unlikely that we'll see the show venture into the Nixon era. For extra shiggles, check out this chatty piece I came across where the writer wonders what S5 will be like for the show, the firm and the characters: "7 Looming Questions for Mad Men Season 5" http://ht.ly/4Fsz0 view more

  Mad Men - Love It

Love It

I love this show - it reflects a time period when families were valued and kids were allowed to be kids. I find this show entertaining and love how they integrate historical activities along with the storyline. I love being able to connect with the characters through their high times as well as their low times. I was disappointed to hear recently that it only has 3 seasons remaining. view more

  Mad Men - Thrilling and Provacative

Thrilling and Provacative

Every episode of Mad Men provides twists, turns, and insight into the troubled lives of everyone who works at Sterling Cooper as well as their families. Don Draper is the quintessential manly man but is a highly flawed individual, partly due to a troubled and disturbing past. There's a lot of smoking, drinking, and infidelity, so this isn't your family show--but besides that, everything's fair game! view more

  Mad Men - Mad Men: THE Best Show on TV!

Mad Men: THE Best Show on TV!

While I started watching Mad Men mid-way through season 3, I fell in love with this show. From the costumes to the now politically incorrect office behavior (and extracurricular activities, if you will), I was hooked on the stories of Don Draper/Dick Whitman and the folks at Sterling-Cooper. Of course, there is also the fashion and mid-century modern decor to envy. As a history/political nerd, I enjoy how the writers are able to work actual events into the plot without being cheesy and over the top. Now that the 4th season is over, I find myself anxiously waiting for season 5. I want to know what's next for the men & women of Sterling-Cooper-Draper-Pryce! view more

  Mad Men - New Favorite TV Show

New Favorite TV Show

Mad Men is my new favorite TV show. I heard about it when it came out, but I haven't had cable until now. I have been trying to rent all the past seasons. Season four is great so far. The characters are well written. They are easy to love and hate at the same time. The drama is fun and juicy, but not unbelievable like a soap opera. view more

Best show on tv

Mad Men - Best show on tv My favorite show on tv! The new season is going a little slow and I wish they'd show less of the work aspect and more of Betty-Don dymanic now that they're divorced. Nonetheless, this show is smart, unique, and beats most of the garbage that passes off as good tv these days. view more

  Mad Men - Smart television

Smart television

This is one of my favorite shows on television. The characters are so well-developed and the scripts are deftly written. The show captures the time period so well, but does not get too nostalgic as it realistically portrays some of the era's problems, like sexism. view more

  Mad Men - Mad Men Season 4

Mad Men Season 4

The new season of Mad Men has taken a turn for the better. Don Draper can't just get along by sitting back and letting his good looks and talent do everything for him. The "new" Don Draper will actually have to make everything happen now, for himself and everyone else. Especially, since they are all there for him and his talents. view more

  Mad Men - Great Costumes

Great Costumes

It is such a great show. You can tell how much effort was put into each episode. And nobody can ignore the phenomenon costumes -- apparently the girls have to wear slips underneath, to be truly in character. view more

  Mad Men - One of TV's greatest shows

One of TV's greatest shows

This is by far one of the best television shows i've seen. I have seen all the seasons so far and can't wait for the next one to start tomorrow. John Hamm plays his character so well, as do many of the other actors. Very interesting and entertaining plot lines that aren't at all cheesy or over the top. Great costume and set design as well, very authentic 60's vibe to the whole show. It is a must see for sure! view more

Matt Wiener is a genius, seriously. This is the best show on television, hands down. It's an intricate story told with carefully drawn characters. There is humor, suspense, drama! Everything anyone could want out of a serial narrative. view more

  Mad Men - Awesome TV show!!!!!

Awesome TV show!!!!!

I love this show. I own season 1 and 2 on blu ray and need to get season 3 as well. Don Draper is the coolest and the show is so unique. There is nothing like it. It makes you feel as though you are back in the 60's living it with the characters. view more
