Just today I heard something about it. I didn't realize it already premiered. So it's not that good?  What's the premise of the show? TIS

It looks like something I would definitely become addicted to. I said the same thing about heroin.
"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."

The concept of this show is fascinating to me. I'm recording them, but haven't really watched much thus far. So, what is the concept???? I know nothing about this show. TIS

Mad Men depicts the society and culture of the early 1960s, highlighting cigarette smoking, drinking (alcoholic beverages), sexism, and racial bias.[4][5] Smoking, more common in 1960 than it is today, is featured throughout the series; almost every character can be seen smoking multiple times in the course of one episode.[4] In the pilot, representatives of Lucky Strike cigarettes come to Sterling Cooper looking for a new advertising campaign in the wake of a Reader's Digest report that smoking will lead to various health issues including lung cancer.[6] The show presents a culture where men who are engaged or married freely partake of sexual relationships with other women. The series also observes advertising as a corporate outlet for creativity for mainstream, middle-class young men. The main character, Don Draper, observes at one point about Sterling-Cooper, "This place has more failed artists and intellectuals than the Third Reich."[7]

Created by The Sopranos writer and executive producer Matthew Weiner I bet kids made fun of his name all the time in grade school.
