The first, Mad Men, is set in 1960s New York and follows the lives of the ruthlessly competitive men and women of a NYC advertising agency.  The second, Breaking Bad, is about as polar oposite as you can get from the other.  Breaking Bad follows a chemistry teacher who lives in New Mexico with his wife and teenage son who has cerebral palsy. This guy is diagnosed with Stage III cancer and given a prognosis of two years left to live. With a new sense of fearlessness based on his medical prognosis, and a desire to secure his family’s financial security, White chooses to enter a dangerous world of drugs and crime and ascends to power in this world.

We’ve been watching Mad Men on Blu-Ray from Netflix and are catching up on Breaking Bad from a marathon they did over the weekend of the first season (which luckily was only 7 episodes).  They just started the second season of Breaking Bad last night and seem to be running a marathon of season 2 for Mad Men in the next week or so.

If you’re looking for some good shows definitely check these two out.  They’re better than any drama I’ve seen on the other networks lately and definitely always have me excited to see what happens next.
