The Emmy-winning juggernaut that got AMC rolling on this hot streak of shows. At first I wasn't interested because nothing about an ad agency seemed all that compelling to me. After the first two seasons aired, I decided to check it out and see what all the fuss was about. At first the story was pretty boring, but the acting was pretty good and I decided to see where it was going. At the end of season 2, I finally found things to start leaning toward the interesting side. I watched 3 while it aired, and that was the season where things really started to pique my interest. It was like all the character development from the first two seasons FINALLY started to pay off and shit was finally going down. I quite enjoyed season 3 and was really interested to see what would happen after the finale, but was disappointed with they way they continued into season 4. Spoiler: They just skipped over the whole setting up a new agency part and picked up after they had a new building and plenty of clients. Season 4 had some really great episodes and I'm now looking forward to the new season, which is supposed to start in March.
I just read something interesting from Weiner. Spoiler: The show is only going to go on 7 seasons and he wants to end it in the present with Don being like 84. I'm not sure how I feel about that, but I'm sure I can't really decide until it happens.
