On this week’s Mad Men Men, we dig into “Dark Shadows.” That's right, it's the episode where envious smog spreads through the office, the suburbs, and even Thanksgiving dinner!

If you’re new here, Mad Men Men covers Mad Men from three angles. First, we have a first-time watcher (Will Ashton). Then, we have a first-time rewatcher (Mike Overhulse). Finally, we have the over-rewatcher (me, Jon Negroni).
