I gave that show a shot earlier this year after hearing people say its one of the goat shows, but i thought it was just boring. After 6 episodes i just gave it up. I didnt like any of the characters.

Is it like a soap opera?

Do people get shot on this show?

Its written very subtly and it portrays a certain lifestyle that's appealing in a lot of ways. It's a great representation of office politics. There is also a lot of hot women

Great acting
Great detailed writing
Great representation of an era that makes it seem like you lived there.
Plus it's just cool :smugdraper:

I'm assuming people don't like it because it's not their cup of tea or they have ADD and can't pay attention unless blood is on their screen every 5 minutes.

MM isn't for everyone. It's a show that focuses on dialog. Most people don't care for that type of stuff if that's what the entire show is pretty much based around.

Season 5 has be great, breh. I agree with the sentiment that it got boring in some of the middle seasons, but if you sat through 4 seasons, you owe it to yourself to watch season 5.

Favorite show since the wire. I can follow it better than the Wire though. Maybe its because I'm into office politics :manny: I Worked at the Corporate Offices for a supermarket for a year so I have an understanding what the tension in the office place on the show can feel like.

But I'm like the OP when it comes to Game of Thrones. If that blonde ain't getting naked , I can't get into that medevel shyt. Even though the midget is a G.
