Mad Men is either 1a or 1b in terms of best shows on TV right now.

Perhaps I mixed up my meaning. Would my point make more sense if I compared portion sizes rather than intellectual heft. It seemed you were suggesting MM has more intellectual heft because it's got a bigger plate. I was just suggesting that just because a show is more focused (WWII : Stalingrad :: Mad Men : Breaking Bad) shouldn't count against it.
