most overrated show of all timenothing fucking happensironically it shows how powerful these advertisers were because they managed to convince all the lamest people you know that this show was worth watchingfuck boomers
>>220472241Season 1 - KINOSeason 2 - okaySeason 3 - ZZZZzzzz
>>220472241if ever there was a show or piece of media that resonated with pic rel it would be mad men
>>220472241>>220472306Its comfier than Sopranos
>>220472241do you feel better now, faggot?
>>220472280Really? I felt it was a really slow starting series... it peaked somewhere between 5 and 6The last season was... just like the rest of the series. Tragically wasted potential, just because Weiner didn't want to be formulaic. They set it up perfectly... the corporate rulers want to replace Don with a computer. And where the hell did it go?
>>220472241filtered
The show made me relapse
>>220473612Truly. Too dumb to get it.
>>220473729too intelligent to fucking fall for it
The carousel is the best tv episode ever made
>>220472241The way this show pretended like they were all big brain geniuses for coming up with basic marketing concepts that had already existed since the dawn of time was funny
>>220474924Anon I...
Do you think any of these characters were reading the works of William S Burroughs? Did Sal find his way to Fiji and get fucked by Allen Ginsberg? Did they meet The Sailor on 103rd and Broadway? Did Don ever see a deeply alcoholic aging Jack Kerouac go off about the Jews on stage?
>>220472241It’s not a show for Trump supporters, that’s for sure
>>220474924...
not a single actual counterargument to the OP, curious
>>220472241Binged watch all of this recently and I haven't been motivated to watch a show or even do anything for a long time. I loved every season and thought the show was incredibly consistent. The aesthetics of the show are really beautiful, the recreation of the 60s as well as camerawork and the subtleties of the lighting are really really sweet. I guess if you come into it with the expectation of high stakes it can be disappointing. The show is essentially a soap and very character driven. But for me this is one of the best shows ever created.
>>220474924Understand its a loosely humorous show about Ad Men and how they bullshit through life because they are living Ads. ‘Ad Men’ that’s not a job title, that’s a person who is half-Ad and half-man. The Advertisement nature seeps into Don’s character and has him lying to his wife. In fact he got his job at Ad Inc when he proved he was an Ad-Man by lying to his boss the master Ad-Man. So yes everything they do is an Ad and therefore horseshit. Are we really buying this presentation? He fucking know he just made it up because he’s getting divorced this week for cheating on is fucking wife!
>>220472280Season 3 was the writers high on their own farts. Conrad just wanted Don to blow him like everyone else.
>>220472241>most overrated show of all timeNo, it isn't, nobody has ever said anything positive about this garbage. it is perfectly correctly rated as SHIT>>220472340They're exactly the same
Conrad is fucking right though like what is this fucking metaphor shit, Hilton on Moon on page. Fucking great idea for an ad. We don't have to actually do it but that's the type of space-age thinking we're up to right now in this changing world and the public should be excited about whatever new ergonomic toilet design or liquid nitrogen desert they'll be seeing in the next few years, Sure a Hilton on the moon why not? We're using photomontage to astrally project dreams onto the public you fucking rube!!!! Don't you turn country just because you think I'm your dad!
Superimpose Hilton over Bright Blue Image of Space-Age Moon, induces public association Hilton-SpaceAge-Moon. Look at moon even, think Hilton. Capture mental real estate 'rent free', paint it Moon-HiltonGet it?
>>220475353>>220475420Just do the last scen of the beans ad but with the Hilton logo
>>220475034but it's about scammers and capitalists, peak trump shit
>>220475034Who makes these posts? I can never tell if it’s some troll farm or a literal child who thinks they’re being all devious by trolling on the nazi site? (Something I did when I was 10 too, but it was Stormfront)
>>220472241>nothing fucking happensdon should have to GET THE THING before TIME RUNS OUT and drive his car REALLY FAST and get CHASED BY BAD GUYS and have to SHOOT A GUN and things should BLOW UP and Don should QUIP ABOUT IT and finally reach the thing JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME but then it turns out there's ANOTHER THING HE NEEDS TO GET oh shit CLIFFHANGERRRRRRRtotally agree, fellow mindbroken normie
>>220472241its Tulsa King for pseuds
>>220475524Anyone not worshipping the retarded MAGA cult I presume chuddie
>>220472241I stopped watching when they decided it was important to show literal homosexual scenes.
>>220475582I voted for Hillary
Don is simply Fucking Boring and that's all there is to it. I just don't give a shit about this hothouse flower and it's ridiculous he's supposed to be this bottled up alpha male archetype meanwhile he's literally on the verge of bursting into treats in front of the entire office every episode
>>220472241just admit you're a midwit who got filtered
>>220475616Dons romances are the weakest parts and just goonfuel for female watchers
>>220472241shut the fuck up
>>220472241Mad Men is literally one of the best written shows I've ever watched. I dont know there is a single bad episode. And even the only meh episodes are S1 finale and S2 opener.I remember this distinctly because both eps were back to back and I was worried the show was falling off.Anyway every character gets a proper send off, they are written off with dignity and the show checks in on everyone even people you long forgot. Tho for some reason the show runner gods really decide to fuck Birdie for some reason. Not sure why they punished her so. And the finale is one of the best finale of any show ever.
>>220476178It is just an advertisement, there's nothing "well written" about it.Kill yourself Jew
It's a good show and one of the few that explores appearences, beauty, superficiality. It does insist on itself and it's at its worse when it tries to be 'funny', especially when compared to Sopranos brilliant dark humour.
Zoomzooms can't process life in such a based society. Sad! Many such filtrations.
Most TV-shows never touch on the fact that their main characters are beautiful/ruggedly handsome. Mad Men actually asks the question: what happens if you are really good looking? Paradoxically, it offers a profound exploration of superficiality.
How many years has the Mad Men schizo been at this? What a disgusting existence.
>>220472241Mad Men is not just a show, it's a vibe.
>>220475245How does this post not get play?
>>220475420>>220475353Breakthrough - Opportunity to fully cognitive consent. In fact they may pay us for their own mental real estate knowingly and willingly. Same image Hilton on moon, on moon real estate, sticking out. Hilton-Moon image in closeup head of bald man, raised eyebrow, smirking. Tagline - ‘Exploration on your mind?’ Hilton
>>220477776Hilton-Moon real estate looking like a spot, Hilton holds a spot on the moon, Hilton-Moon holds a spot in your mind. Go there now. In your head. We have built it for you. Moon scary no oxygen and cold but Hilton like home, warm and nice air. Space food probably nice. RecalculatingAd 2 - Space Hilton. Cold moon surface out window, warm yellow heat inside. happy family pipe newspaper wife in tasteful bikini (speculated anti-gravity swimming pool in shot?), boy girl running playing comfortable, dad not bothered. Being served speculative luxury space food, the waitress is the one wearing the sexy silver space outfit, maybe she’s an alien i mean she lives here haha :). Tagline - quote from father to wife, ‘I’m glad we waited for the Hilton’ I would have gotten the job
Still the best girl. I would travel the world with her
>>220475168I loved it. Made me drink more while I watched it but I think of it as a modern period piece.
And by the way if you want to blame me for lack of editing then you are put on notice as someone who overly edits his thoughts. Where do you get your edits from, buddy? Just send it
>>220472241are you the retard who thought it was some big revelation to reveal to the rest of us "Guys, I figured it out- its a soap opera!"
>>220478258Does it matter who says it when it's the same force saying it no matter what way it says it through? In an anonymous world, faceless nameless, is it a mistake that we identify people by sharing the same idea, or is it a conceptual move provided by our unauthorized action? Go beyond space and time and face and name, throw away all that, suddenly the same faces appear and appear. What's up with that? Anyone have any ideas?
>>220472241>the most insufferable character was the MC
>>220478838Reminds me of my own life-film
>>220472340>Its comfier than Sopranos… if you are comforted by girlboss scenes.https://youtu.be/_m67JbGjWnchttps://youtu.be/eohHFdHCo2M
Agreed. Duck should have been the main character
>>220479014>character throws a family golden retriever out into the streets It was a set up. I can already imagine the writers coming back from the future of Duck's story thread saying 'the audience might not see this guy is stitched up as jerk! What do we do about this 'character'? Go back in time, they say, he's only up for a draft. An absolute plot. Hitting he and us with a stray, stitched up like we both strayed the dog. Stray bullet right? Hey buddy, DUCK!!!!
which is to say about Duck, the writers shot him with a stray. Get it? He ducked out
>>220476178>I dont know there is a single bad episode.The fat Betty episode is the worst one and it's still fine.
>>220479320bamalam
>>220474924imagine getting this fucking close and then not getting it
>>220472241Plen
why didn't Don just marry her? she seemed like a perfect new wife for him and she already saw his dick
>>220479484Did you watch the show? She was fucking insane.
>>220479608in what way? she seemed like one of the more normal characters in the show
>>220479608No she McMotherfucking wasn't. She fucking cared and that's what Don needed and fully wanted as was leaking through every thread of his sick body. Come the fuck on. I'm just glad this largely nameless honest dame escaped publicity by properly noticing the wall she had been slammed against seeking any sense of real romance out of a stitched-up ad men. Get it?
Thoughts on Freddy?

>>220479608she based and she cute
>>220480101Smoked a cig the moment I read this to deal with the pain
>>220480115You think Don would've vaped?
>>220479983He was based for getting sober in an industry that was all about getting fucked up all day. I like that he still wasn’t a saint once he got clean and still butt heads with Peggy
Can we all agree that the worst character was Pryce's wife? She spent all the money meant for taxes on a fucking Jaguar lmao
>>220480223She didn’t know how broke they were. Lane’s pride was his downfall. Same reason why he didn’t ask Don for a loan even after witnessing him pay like 20k for Pete’s cut
>>220480223She was squirreling away a little at a time so he probably would’ve still had the same problem. The irony of that scene was that if she had given him the gift a few days earlier he could’ve just returned it and not forged the check
>>220472241Holy shit, this kid is edgy!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXoILGnHnvMWhy was she such a slut?
>>220480316Roger dancing like her the next day at work was one of the funniest moments of the series
but what is it?
>>220480407buttcheeks and prolapsed anus
>>220480407A chip and dip
>>220480155Roger might have tried it
I thought the same when watching it foot the first time, until I stated understanding that the show is about explaining that American life is all a marketing, scam, sham and pretentious bullshit. Literally EVERYTHING about it is MK Ultra marketing and consumerism brainwashing. ALL OF IT.
>YouTubeTV has channel that just marathons mad men all night long>randomly just ends and plays amc slopWhat the fuck am I supposed to watch at night now?
>>220472241>nothing happenseverything happensyou just didn't feel ityou were waiting around to see it insteadim honestly not being smug when I say it's a mature show that requires you to be cognizant of the energy in the room
>>220480407a rifle in disguise
>>220480349that and the Lucky Strike guy making Roger put on the Santa suit are my favorites
>>220479983Got abandoned and then came back humble and saved himself and others. Cool character (and callback to an 80's classic)
>>220481364What 80s classic?
>>220473612I think once /tv/ started turning on Mad Men and LOTR the eternal Summer began. I wish we could go back.
>>220481306I just watched that episode today. I didn’t find that moment all that funny but maybe I just hate that lucky strike guy too much where I actually felt bad for Roger for a moment
>>220480502>>220480155
