In my opinion, the best show on TV. Nothing matches the style, sharp writing, and incredibly interesting characters and stories.
Appreciate this awesome show!

My only complain is that its slow moving.

Otherwise, its superb and I love it. Cant wait for season 4 next month.

I am currently about half way through the first season. Excellent stuff.

My brother watched it a lot, and from what he says it's really good.

I appreciate Christina Hendricks' tits and ass.

I hear the show's good as well.

Absolutely fantastic show... season 3 finale was the most fun I've had watching TV in a while (especially for a drama)

Very good TV show.

Haven't seen any of season 3 yet. I have Season 1 and 2 on blu-ray though.

Have they discovered that Saffron is just conning them under a false name? It's what she does.

Excellent show. It gets placed on a mantle next to The Wire and Deadwood for "Shows that other TV Producers need to watch so that they realize supernatural plot twists/flashbacks/dream sequences/bullshit are not needed to write a compelling narrative. And p.s. complex, interesting characters"

Only in the middle of the fifth episode but I love it. Pete's a creep but I feel for the guy, especially in the episode New Amsterdam.

Yeah, great show, was watching Golden Violin episode (Sal invites Kenny over to dinner) last night, so tragicomic.

Still need to see the fourth season

I hope some traces of psychedelia show up as we get into the late 60s, but I'm not betting on it.

Super Dude · « **Reply #14 on:** March 18, 2011, 08:09:40 AM »

Peggy might just be my favorite character.

Phoenix87x · « **Reply #15 on:** January 20, 2018, 06:20:44 PM »

Just started watching, two episodes in. Its surreal to see life in this different era.

The Walrus · « **Reply #16 on:** January 20, 2018, 07:51:24 PM »

I was hooked from the start. It's a damn good show.

My most memorable episode was the one with the riding lawnmower in the office.

That was my favorite as well, though I think the best moment was Don's Kodak presentation. My dad and grandpa had always used slide projectors, so I have always known the trays as a carousel. That whole scene just tapped into my childhood.

Don's behavior in the later seasons really dragged on for too long, but I thought that the series finale was really well done and loved how the off-the reservation behavior led to the "creation" of the most famous ad of all time.

Almost done the first season. This show is really great, and I equate it to drinking a nice warm cup of coffee. A nice slow enjoyable burn. And what I'm getting at is that is not something I want to binge, but something I want to take my time with and savor. An episode here, and an episode there.

My favorite characters are Cooper, Sal and of course don draper.

I love how when faced with blackmail, draper owned it and just went into Cooper's office, disarming the weasel that is Campbell.
