I only just realised that the name of the show is a play on "Ad Men"; like, it's a show about "(AD)vertisement men (employees)" and it's called "mAD men", because they work on advertisements but they're also mentally ill like me

Not Madison Ave.?
yes, it's literally in the first episode
Wait, so the subtext of the show title is "Mad(ison Avenue) Men"? Madison Avenue Men? That sounds gay.
>The ad men
>on Madison ave
>the mad men
It’s both
but are they mad?
and dont forget during the James MADison presidency as well
I know this is the troll but it’s infuriating me anyway
The show starts with an explanation of the name holy shit
OP here, I never finished a single episode of the show - I got through maybe 3/4 of the first ep.
it's in the fricking intro dude
Literally where? Post a screencap.
Begone zoomer
Shit show btw
That girl in it is extremly hot, though.
Soap opera for gays
The Madison Men. Nothing more badass than being called Madison.
It literally means Mad Men not because they are crazy but because anyone else would go crazy in their enviroments. So yes, they are crazy for normal people. Being so detached from your emotions is not normal, likewise Mad Men.
Yeah but you're not taking into account that "ad" is part of the word "Mad", and "ad" is short for "Advertisement"
I concede that but the play on words is so much bigger than just their professions.
It's right there in the first episode when they walk into the guy's office and he goes "hey it's the Madison Avenue Mad Ad Men!"
Post the timestamp

>pours himself another old fashioned
what if the real madison avenue was the chip and dips we made along the way?
it's certainly not Madison men. in the first episode it says something along the lines of 'in the 1960s these advertisers were called mad men. they also came up with the name themselves.' on a black title card
actually I'm probably wrong, but that title card is there and probably has what I said and the Madison thinf
this entire show was Matthew "The israelite" Weiner trying his hardest to be as good a writer as David Chase / Terry Winter and failing
How about instead of mad men, it's madame men and they're all trannies or something.
Lmao, you should replace Adam Friedland as third mic on the comedy podcast Cumtown
During pride month? Are you insane? That's just a degree of uncouth I'm not comfortable with.
