Just started watching it, about 5 episodes deep into the first season, so far so good.

Hooked, heard it only gets better.

Just started watching this, and Rubicon.

I am in my 40's and remember my dad taking the LIRR to work.... he looked excatly like the guys on Mad Men. Hat, cigs, liquor when he got home so for me it brings back some memories.

The best show on television right now. Hands down.

JMUJet · 08-08-2010, 07:11 PM

I really am not impressed with the show. My girlfriend heard good things so we gave it a try. I thought the first season was really good. The second season was very slow. And I got through about 4 episodes in the 3rd season before I just stopped trying

I almost gave up midway through season 3.. but it got real good by the end of the season.

Seasons 1 and 2 were great. It seemed to go off the rail a bit in season 3 with too much of Don's family, but recovered nicely towards the end of the season.

PocketJet · 08-08-2010, 07:48 PM

outstanding show. Very intelligent writing and acting, a breath of fresh air from the moron reality stuff on the aiwaves now.

Even though Don's a cheating womanizer, I really can't stand Betty. Ungrateful. She really had no idea how unfaithful Don was, so her real excuse for divorce was weak.

Yeah, Betty is a huge *****, I can't stand her.

I thought last season was fantastic. So far this season has been a little slow, but I have a feeling it's really going to pick up now. My favorite character is Roger, he's hilarious.

What channel is it on? I'm surprised I haven't really heard anything about this show.

AMC (254 on DirecTV).

AMC has two of the best shows on tv: Mad Men and Breaking Bad. Plus Rubicon shows lots of potential (tonight was episode 2).
