Watched Mad Men on a plane once. Passed the time, I guess, but meh. Never watched Lost. Sitting this one out.

Lost was interesting for 2-3 seasons and then not so much. Never paid off anything that was set up early on.

#2 Mad Men

I was a big of a Mad Men fan as it gets. Watched it 3 times through. Definitely a natty contender for me personally speaking.

I watched the entire show and was fucking pissed at how it ended. The girl in @YellowSnow's gif gives me a boner though which had me struggle with my vote.

#7 Lost

GOT stole the crown for crash landing a series but LOST was the original disappointment.

Still, at its peak it was incredibly addicting. Most shows suck after 2-3 years anyway. LOST made me think and care and boom boom to Kate excessively.

Yep the first three seasons of Lost were incredible, the fourth season was okay, the fifth was an abomination.

Still, the most invested I ever was into a TV drama.

I was deeply invested in Mad Men. Over the course of a month, I binge watched all the seasons

There's a couple big reasons why Mad Men is superior.

Can't quit put my finger on it though. Damnit.

I'm pretty sure that Don's apartment with his second wife is the same apartment Bumpy Johnson has in Godfather of Harlem

I avoided Mad Men until a couple years ago then watched it straight through. Having live in the 60's it wasn't as cool to me as to some. In fact it was annoying at times but overall a great series

I may have to watch Breaking Bad sometime

I didn't end up like the HH thing, because I hated Mad Men era humor. There's a degree of correlation.

Mad Men is a phenomenal show. One of my favorites. First four seasons are just amazing.

Lost was some compelling shit until it made no sense.

I've been loving the new season of Westworld. I was meh on the first 2

Season 1was good IMO. Season 2 was what the fuck but it did set up the current one which looks good so far

I've never seen a steeper rise and fall than Westworld seasons one to two. First season may have been the best drama I've ever watched. Second season was as if the writing team from the first season was fired and replaced by the writing team from Alias. It was so bad that the third season isn't even an option. Not watching that shit.

You might want to give it a shot.
