It's a good show after you complete the whole product, but I'd be lying if I said It's a show I'd watch or want to watch again like I would The Wire, Breaking Bad, Oz, House, Sopranos, Better call saul, The Corner or any other dramatic show similar enough to it. Don Draper, much like Bojack Horseman is a character that I never took to since I'm not really keen on seeing white men do white men things for hours on end, while not being generally entertained by it.
The charasmatic piece of shyt that was schtupping the red head was prolly the only bright spot of Mad Men that had me watching it without pure disgust. That and the situation involving Don's "Wife".

I remember feeling that way when I first started watching. It doesn’t try to reel you in quickly but eventually you just start loving the characters and becoming super invested. A top 5 maybe top 3 show for me

mad men is the pinnacle of television. greatest TV show ever made. also a GOAT ending.
it was also made for the older way of TV not streaming
I watched Breaking Bad from it's beginning in January 2008, on AMC, Sunday nights and it ran with Mad Men
it's a different way of writing, directing and watching TV

one of the GOAT scenes 
This shyt is so piff
, glad I stuck with it. Just on season 2, the Jet set episode is probably one of the best episodes of television I’ve ever seen.
The beauty of this show is that the white male is supposed to be at the zenith of societal freedom and power, while everyone else is trapped in their roles, but the irony is that they are just as trapped as everyone else if not more, and Don Draper is the epitome of that.
Pete Campbell has grown on me, thought he was just some spoiled yuppie in the earlier episodes

I had heard about it but only watched it like a year or two ago. It’s a great show
I saw her on Industry before starting Madmen, kept on asking myself why this kid looked so familiarDon and Betty were horrible parents, little Sally acting a fool on Industry
