This show just gets better and better. Why isn't it as famous as shows like Sopranos or Breaking Bad?

I mention it every time someone makes a What show should I watch next? I always says its top tier. It is honestly openly praised as one of the best shows ever, yet in a weird way is far lesser known.

lack of violence. bb makes up for its bad acting with shocking and exciting stuff. sopranos obviously has a big emphasis on violence. mad men is too cerebral and most people focus on the visual aspect because everything else goes over their head.

Yeah that breakdown after he gets the phone call about his ex-"wife" dying and how he says she was the only person who knew him hit me pretty hard tbh, and I almost never have that kind of response to things like that. I guess it just hit close to home or something.

Not sure I agree it gets better and better though, I think it dropped off post season 4 (maybe 3 actually) but it's still really good. I do hate everything they did to Betty though (you'll see) considering she was literally the perfect woman before the whole marriage falling apart thing
