Mad Men premieres tomorrow night. There's been nearly unanimous praise out there for this show, so I'm setting my DVR. I've also heard at least one good review of the show with Glenn Close as a litigator, which makes me hopeful. Anyone know anything?
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

When a professional critic says that she wants to marry the show, you know that it ought to be good.
I've already dumped Burn Notice from my DVR.

I've set the Tivo for the Glenn Close one - hadn't heard about Mad Men, except I somehow though it had come up here, and not totally positively? Who's in it? Now I want to threadsearch and see if I made that up.

Mad Men is great -- totally a must-watch.
If I may be permitted a tiny bit of pimpage...
I have the pilot for Damages in the living room, but haven't had any time to watch it yet.

I have to check my dvr when I get home to see if Mad Men is still set to record. I had to dump something to make sure it and Burn Notice both recorded but I can't remember what and I don't think it took.
When is Damages going to be on?
And who is watching Murphy's Law?

I was kind of meh on Burn Notice anyway, and now that there's another show for me to watch, it's time for me to dump it. The fact that Mad Men is in the same timeslot isn't the main reason.

It feels like I'm watching more new TV this summer than I do during the regular season. Every week, there's some new series debuting.
Is it just me or is there more cable stuff this year?

I agree - there definitely seems to be more this summer.
Is Damages on at the same time as Burn Notice and Mad Men?

Not just you. Or at least there's more cable stuff I want to watch. I'm currently DVRing at least one show a week night, usually more (and a bunch on Sundays), not counting TDS and TCR.
