I like all three for very different reasons.

I'll throw in a 4th show, if you haven't watched "Justified" go start it now.

Sons started really well. Now, I wish everyone would die. Aside from C-Note and Chibs, I don't like any of the characters.

I do - one of my top 5, some days it is #1.

I wanted to like it - I should like it - but I hate that kid (Charlie Hunnam - or at least his character), which made the show unwatchable for me from fairly early on. Maybe I'll give it another go in the future.

enjoy a TV show and apperciate character development, Mad Men is for you.


I lost contact at the end of Season 4 - I was actually caught up at that point, but didn't start Season 5 for whatever reason - but I really enjoyed it through then.

So, for the OP - Mad Men is the best show, from what I've seen - I've watched scattered scenes from TWD and the first 2 to 3 episodes of SOA - Mad Men is clearly better as a pure character drama.

Never watched a lick of each show and need a new netflix series to get hooked on. Sell me on one.


I loved The Walking Dead until they left the farm and went to the prison. The prison got old quickly for me. The end of last season was not very good IMO and I haven't watched the first half of this season.

I just can't get excited enough about it to watch it.

the show suffers because a certain percentage of its fans watch the show expecting a horror movie and it has more to do with human nature than zombies.
I think it is a great show, well made with excellent imagery/story lines/character development and several holy shite moments that catch you totally off-guard.


It sucks at character development and introspective looks at human nature.
