Mad Men has the most depth, subtext and nuanced characterization of any of them.
I'd probably still give Breaking Bad the edge given how amazingly written, acted and visually stunning it is (the last being Mad Men's one slight flaw).

He marries women who fit his ideas of what a wife of someone like Don should look and behave like.
Wives to Don are meant to be a reflection of him and his status.

I regard Faye as someone Don needed in his life at a very specific moment of his life, but I don't see them working out or her being the solution to his problems.
That's not even getting into her getting far too close to the real Don Draper, and we know what his kneejerk reaction to that has been and the fact Don has…

The finale did what it needed to, tie the whole season together thematically, and it did it brilliantly.
I have no idea what my opinion of the season overall would be if it hadn't done that.
On a week by week basis it seemed to me curiously scattershot compared to others, though I now wonder whether viewed in a binge…

Yeah and hopefully that finale was the start of Don meshing the two aspects together as opposed to the Gatsby like invention.
That moment of finally letting his shield down was so powerful, because it offered hope for the character and him being comfortable inside.Also at this stage what Don Draper has done is a real…

Elisabeth Moss probably gets the most highlight reel moments on the show (apart from Roger), but yeah Hamm is the kind of nuanced performance that's hard to describe the greatness of briefly.It's all about the journey, the subtle moments and what certain moments mean to the character as a whole.

That's disgusting!

Don takes off in Ted's plane and waves at Peggy down below, who's spelled out Pizza House in stones.

Ouch, but hilarious.

I don't think Mad Men's a typical spoilers can ruin the show.
I mean yeah, some big moments happen and would hit you harder if you don't know, but it's so character driven and symbolic it can be enjoyed as much on that level.

Marriage counselors tell you have sex in a therapy session? Kinky.

It sounds like relationship therapy for the writer.

I don't think you have to like it, but tolerate it and be willing to sit through it.

I'll give you Gattaca. Training Day's a mediocre Shield knockoff carried only by Denzel's performance.

I think so. I mean there's not much to it and it lacks his 'distinctive style', but it works pretty well.

Fair enough, the way you phrased it did sound like 'I'm dying alone'.

Oh I agree that the film largely sunk under it's attempts to add weight and depth to the issue, and the problem there was that compared to the more tongue in cheek aspects it was an uneasy tonal mix.
I have no idea what Singer was tasked with doing, but if it was to give Warners a modernized upgrade of what Donner…

And I disagree that Snyder's interpretation is an inherently more valid one, particularly as he threw out just about everything about Superman except the powers he has.

How do you do that? With a kryptonite coathanger?

It's not the idea of punching for me, it's what it does with the punching. The whole last thirty minutes was one of those 'this is meant to be exciting, so why am I so bored?' things to me.
