its about ad men in the 60s/70s and the shenanigans they get into, it's supposed to point at how shitty men like that were back in the day but they just come across as incredibly based
It would depend how old you are and how much you want to understand post WWII and Korean War vet/fathers. It’s a genius show in my opinion and has hot broads in it
It's about the American Dream and how people are okay with being lied to as long as they are being reassured that their lifestyle conforms to this ideal.
what you want to do vs society's expectations for you. The masks we all wear. American Life. It's the Soprano's companion piece. I always rewatch them one right after the other.
Great dialogue, Great characters.
Lmaoing at the idea that this chink watches American dramas all night and then goes to work and shitposts on an American hobby forum all day. Those crazy orientals!
The poster I was replying to was Chinese, you can tell by the the ridiculous way he posts. And the only Chinese posters on the site are here to advertise for pennies on the dollar

Oh I see, thanks for the explanation. Why do they do it, are they just losers or society’s outcasts or what?

A lot of them are basically prisoners of the Chinese government, forced to sit in computer bullpen all days with a million phone displays in front of each of them. They mostly post off of scripts though. Because they don’t hire chinks smart enough to speak English, those cost a few extra pennies, and when you’re talking about shilling it’s all a margin game. Getting the most brain dead, cheap, bulk, third world manpower that you can and just turning them loose on the site. The Chinese posters that aren’t prisoners are usually involved with one of China’s criminal elements. They’re in even worse shape than the prisoners are. It’s sad really, it’d be a humanitarian crisis if the Chinese were actually people.

What a hard life, I’m sure none if them ever get laid, given what I’ve read about Chinese women. I heard Xi was considering a zero child policy as well, where women can only breed with foreigners. Awful stuff.

They really don’t, many of them are hideous and pockmarked, with weird pear shaped bodies and bad haircuts. It’s hellish.

It’s like those photos of the boxer rebellion, where all the Chinese people had braids and pigtails for hair. No wonder people think they’re effeminate. They just go around wearing robes and braids like a woman, and smoking so much opium that they almost knock the ceremonial gong over. China is a dreadful place.

Nice try, brush up on your English a little

Get it together you fricking maniac, take your meds
Ok morons. The Wire, The Shield, Deadwood, Boardwalk Empire, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Sons of Anarchy, The Walking Dead, Dexter, Mad Men, Homeland, Billions, Westworld (only seasons 1-2)
That’s all I suppose. Of course you should also watch many saints of Newark in case you haven’t moron, and this underappreciated great Gandolfini film, Down the Shore. /thread
how the frick do you figure Dexter belongs in there? It's pure garbage once you take off the nostalgia goggles. Seasons 1, 2, 4, and maybe an episode or two of 6 are the only good parts of the show and good is stretching it. The writing is pretty terrible but the shock and shlock value bumps those parts up a bit.
>you know what's funny? I've been alive for 6 weeks. I know nothing of the world outside of this dog's stomach and I still think six feet under is pretentious
watch Fargo now fren or closer to winter. its cozy and winter kino as well as very bingeable. season 1,2 and 3 are all pretty good but wouldn't bother with 4
I watched that one, though not the final season. Or whatever it is with the sister log shit.
I liked it then but i dont know if itll hold up to be honest
Just keep watching The Sopranos because nothing else compares. You're going to be chasing the dragon for the rest of your life.
No. The last time I watched it was 2011. So I'll watch it again in maybe 8 years. Savor it.
Nothing will reach those heights until the woke cult dies in like 50 years minimum.
hehe catch me
Six Feet Under
Maybe. A friend tried to get me to start it in 2016.
Im on episode 1 right now.
yeah doesn't get rec'ed nearly enough in the context of sopranos whereas mad men is rec'ed too often
Sopranos
house
the wire is better lol
More Sopranos. Watch it while reading Sopranos Autopsy. Watch it while listening to Talking Sopranos.
Recess
How its made
Silvio's coma dream
I tried watching that when it came out. Dropped after two episodes.
It’s worth 1.5 seasons
Lost or Six Feet Under
The Wire is the only thing that compares. In fact I think The Wire is better in some ways.
Mad Men is always good too, just not to the same heights as the other two.
What exactly is mad men about, without spoiling much?
its about ad men in the 60s/70s and the shenanigans they get into, it's supposed to point at how shitty men like that were back in the day but they just come across as incredibly based
So what's the real selling point because that doesn't sound interesting in the slightest bit

I'm 29. I'll consider it since it's frequently included in lists. I'll have to see it eventually.

It's coastal urbanoid shit that gets a good reputation because coastal urbanoid relate to it, not for merit.

Brotherhood.
The Sopranos again.
The Terror season 1
I started the wire but im gonna go ahead and do this one too. I was supposed to this year.
NatureScene with Rudy Mancke. Absolute top kino, every single episode.
The Leftovers
Black Sails (S1 you have to endure, but S2, S3, and S4 are great)
The 100 is solid wank material and actually not as bad as you'd think.
