agreed. If we go by the old comedy/drama dichotomy I think Sopranos is the best comedy series of all time while Mad Men is the best drama series of all time. If we put in on a spectrum them both have overlap but one is clearly more of a comedy than a drama and vice versa.
Also anyone who doesn't realize the Sopranos is comedy missed the point of the Sopranos
It's literally life. Nothing happens, some crszy shit happens for like 5% of it, you roam aimlessly, distracting yourself, and then you die, mistakenly wishing you did something with your life, assuming there was some secret you missed out on, or something you had to figure out. This is all there is.
i been trying to get into it, almost done with s01 but im just not feeling it, its so uninteresting and pointless, the bits of Don being a genius at his job are good, the rest is boring shit, like who cares about his waifus stay at home mom shit, jesus
>it also annoys me that he cheats on his hot wife with ugly women
First off, Don likes trash gash because of childhood reasons
Secondly, Betty is a stupid b***h who deserves everything bad that happens to her, especially dying of cancer
>Kids don’t like her
You’re right, it’s super rare for a teenage girl to hate her mother. >not her husband, not Don
She’s basically a trophy wife. It was very common for wives to be unloved. Also, Don obviously cared about her to a real extent. So did Henry. They just weren’t a good match, and shouldn’t have married her. >not her “friends”
Stereotypical carry b***hes who don’t like anyone, especially not themselves.
She’s just fricking sad bro. She fell for the meme and the social pressure, and became a wife/mother at a very young age, despite not having a strong maternal instinct or the life experience to be good at it. You’ll notice how much she flourishes in Italy and college, but she’s stuffed in a guilded cage, locked in a role she wasn’t fit for, yet unable to conceptualize life without it.
it’s way too childishly liberal in its revisionist history of how the characters act
proto woke
really puts one off from rewatching the series
the writers room was obviously imbalanced, there was based writers and cringe ones
too many cringe moments in the series stop it from being great
Those are all portrayed in a negative light. The show-runner was israeli fat-balding frickhead Matthew Weiner.
Don Draper is portrayed as a flawed alpha-male who smokes and drinks too much, causes his family to get divorced, etc.
My problem with this show is that only like 1% of the plot is ever actually about advertising. I find that stuff fascinating. Instead we get a bunch of boring relationship drama. Some of it can be kino, like zooby zoo, but a lot of it is just so dull. I suppose that appeals to female watchers.
Tl;dr I’d rather watch them figure out how to manipulate housewives into buying amphetamines than Betty’s mid life crisis
cringe feminist slice of life
Second most based show in existence, second only to The Sopranos

>based show
it's a israeli endzone dance on WASPs
95% of it is boring as shit and 5% is utter kino, kind of goes nowhere to be honest

It's boring as shit but I keep watching it for some reason....

>who cares about his waifus stay at home mom shit
that's actually the best part of the show
the don draper at his job parts are boring as frick

Saw the one episode with the hippies or beatniks
it's boring
it also annoys me that he cheats on his hot wife with ugly women

Lay off my Betty you wienersucker. She did nothing wrong.
>Nothing wrong
Lmao. There's a reason literally no one likes her. Not her kids, not her husband, not Don, not her "friends"

i can't believe i wasted time watching the first season of this piece of shit
i am glad i didn't watch anymore
I've watched all but the last season should I finally pull the trigger and watch it
best show of all time, and it's not even close
It’s anti-white men garbage
>the show about a white guy being a chad and the ultimate power fantasy self insert character for guys, and shows traditional 1950s-60s culture.
sure, buddy. it's "woke propaganda" lmfao
Don’t forget the “money can’t buy happiness” motif, and liberals are seriously classist and elitist.

>flawed alpha-male who smokes and drinks too much, causes his family to get divorced, etc.
sure, but he's still a gigachad. doesn't have to be flawless. and the showrunner being israeli in HOLLYWOOD??? that's unheard of lol
it has it's moments. I watched it for Peggy's fat dumper and breasts.

It was a period piece and low-key with bonus car fanatic porn.
It has many scenes that are kino.
