From the Mad Men Blog: For the second year in a row, Mad Men has won the Golden Globe for Best Television Series (Drama) beating out the competition of Dexter, House, In Treatment, and True Blood. With this win, Mad Men is the first back-to-back winner in this Globes category since The X-Files in 1998, and the first cable drama to ever receive back-to-back wins in this category. Joining show creator Matthew Weiner as he accepted the award onstage were cast members Jon Hamm, John Slattery, Vincent Kartheiser, January Jones, Christina Hendricks, and Elisabeth Moss. "I'm genuinely thrilled about this," said Weiner before noting "we missed this party and this is an amazing party," in reference to Mad Men's Golden Globe win last year, which took place in the midst of the Writers Guild strike and therefore was given without an awards show. Weiner thanked the Hollywood Foreign Press saying how "they embraced the show immediately" adding that the award was "for everyone who works on this show. My friends at Lionsgate and AMC, it's been an amazing journey... I love that you guys love the show, it means a lot to us."

So now it's Mad Men. Seems like it wasn't all that long ago that Michael and Elliot on Thirtysomething gave us an inside look at the advertising industry. Of course there were movies like Lost in America, Kramer vs. Kramer, Nothing in Common, Crazy People, Mr. Mom, and What a Woman Wants.
My Question:
Which TV show, movie, character, etc. really nails the good, bad, and ugly of the ad industry?
