Best Television Shows

Don’t want to dig out your matching dark shirt-tie combos now that ABC has relaunched early 00′s bloated juggernaut “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” Let Drama Mama help. Here’s what to watch this week:

“Mad Men” (Sunday, 10 p.m., AMC)
Everybody’s been telling you to watch it. So what’s been keeping you? It can’t be the impeccable ’60s period details, the drop-dead beauty of cast members like Jon Hamm and Christina Hendricks, or the decadent delight in recalling when everyone smoked and drank at the office. No, it’s probably the storytelling, which you’ve heard is slow-paced and contemplative, more complex than your average done-in-one crime drama. Well, let Mama put it in perspective. You remember the awesome episode that kicked off the final season of “The Sopranos,” when a friendly game at the cabin suddenly turned into a blood battle between Tony and Bobby, with Carmela and Janice looking on? Well, one of the guys who wrote that? Wrote this. Watch it. Your vegetables never tasted so good.
