Mad Men if you're nostalgic for the good old days... When men were men, and smoking in the office wasn't bad for you.

Mad Men is one of my favorite shows. It's very character driven and slow. I love it because i find the time period very interesting. Never seen the other 2.

I do, considering Boardwalk Empire is probably my favorite show

If you don't need violence to enjoy a TV show and apperciate character development, Mad Men is for you. Out of the three, by far the best show acting and story wise. It's a slow burn at times, but really enjoyable.
Sons and TWD don't hold a candle.
If you like The Shield and would enjoy a watered down version of it,watch Sons.
If you were a fan of LOST and would like to keep watching LOST, watch TWD.

SoA went to shite after the s3 finale, and TWD is garbage compared to the comic. I've never seen any of Mad Men.

Walking Dead is not a very good show.

Then you'd probably like Mad Men. It's the best of the three IMO and I've watched at least two pretty consistently.

Mad Men takes a bit to get into, but once you get a feel for the characters it's some great TV.
I'm watching SOA right now, on season 4, and it's pretty good. It's addictive.
Walking Dead has highs and lows. I'm a sucker for anything horror related though, so I like it.

I've yet to watch the Walking Dead. From what I've read from fans, I'm not sure I want to. They seem to almost hate the show.
Mad Men is a slow build, but it's very good. I think it has to catch you in the right mood initially.
I've quit watching Sons of Anarchy. I just didn't care about the characters or storylines anymore. I don't know what it was. It feels like it should have wrapped up already. I tried to watch the premiere this season, and I couldn't make it through the episode. I may catch up later. I don't know.

TWD is good if you like zombies/horror. However, it will plod along slowly for about 3/4 of each episode with a sometimes feeble attempt at character development. Then give you some great zombie killing action for the rest of the episode.

I've seen all of Walking Dead, first few seasons of SoA, and the first few episodes of Mad Men.
No matter which show you choose, you should at least watch season 1 of Walking Dead.

Can anyone tell me what each show is about?
Mad Men I gather is about an Ad agency..?
Walking Dead seems to be some sort of survival show?
Not sure about Sons

IMDB would do that for you.

Sons is about an outlaw motorcycle club

Yea ik, but I find imdb usually gives more of a "this character finds himself doing this" kind of description rather than compare it to something I can get a better idea of. I also value the input given on this board

Yea, it has really failed in terms of actual drama, IMO. I do enjoy the plain action aspects of it, though. They can't build up any characters because a) the writing sucks 2) 90% of the characters exist to be killed off which takes any drama out of the equation.
