TV Shows For Men: 2 Mad Men

One of the past decade's most critically-acclaimed shows is drawing to a close, its seventh and final season premiering this April. AMC's Mad Men, the brainchild of Sopranos veteran writer Matthew Weiner, has entertained and challenged audiences since its pilot, forcing an entire nation to revisit the 1960s and confront its racism, sexism and war-mongering all over again. But despite the grand ambitions, the show centers on one man, the terminally unhappy Don Draper, whose sorrows seem only to increase in direct relation to his career success and whose only escape is in drinking and philandering. 

To outside observers, Don has it all: he's good-looking, successful, wealthy, respected and seemingly able to sleep with any woman he wants. Why, then, is he so unhappy? That is the show's underlying question, and after big reveals about Don's childhood in the latest season, we have high expectations for how the final season will wrap things up.
