In a year that was supposed to be all about losing the Greatest Show Ever in the history of TV, along comes AMC’s Mad Men—the one series that has made us forget all about Tony what’s-his-name. Dripping with glamour, style, wit, intrigue, and more smarts than we’ve seen on the box in a long time, this is the show Billy Wilder would have produced: part The Apartment, part Lost Weekend, part Ace in the Hole. Set in 1960, it revolves around Don Draper, a creative wizard at the Madison Avenue ad agency Sterling Cooper. Mad Men is nothing short of a midcentury modern masterpiece. Make yourself a Manhattan, settle back, and watch what happens—this show is taking us places. amctv.com
