If you haven't seen this show... then you are missing one of the best, most compelling, and - dare I say it - educational show on TV!
Yeah - I was sleeping and missed season one (ordering DVD), but MAN - if you're in advertising (and, let's face it, we do have a leg in it), then you HAVE to watch this show. Even though it's based in the early sixties, the issues and principles are, for the most part, still VERY relevant.
Uh... not a family show, by any stretch. Just a warning for the very conservative.
PEACE.

Other shows I'm keeping my eyes on:
This show starts tonight so TiVo it if you have to - but if you're from "Northern Jersey" (cough... maybe uh Newark - I went to college there), you might recognize some locations:
Jacked: Auto Theft Task Force premieres tonight at 10p on A&E
A new show started last night on Sundance Channel called "Architecture School" - and yeah, you DO get critiqued like that - I went to college for Architecture and we called it ArchiTORTURE:

Enjoy! And don't forget Entourage on Friday nights at 10PM (two episodes back to back) leading up to the season premiere:

Thank GOD for the DVR.
PEACE.

Mad Men is a great show. It's tough watching Mad Men without wanting to smoke tho.

For someone who would have been a science geek if he hadn't discovered entertaining people was a lot more fun, "Big Bang Theory" on CBS is funny to the tenth power on my chart.
