He enlists the help of the best thieves in the business, and with their help he will steal from the rich and give to the poor, to help balance the crooks in high power positions. He and his team help provide…leverage.

Mad Men (The Complete Second Season)

Synopsis: What you are, what you want, what you love doesn’t matter. It’s all about how you sell it. From AMC and the Emmy® Award-winning executive producer and writer of “The Sopranos” Matthew Weiner, comes Mad Men, a provocative new primetime drama about how to sell the truth. Set in 1960 New York, the daring new series is about the lives of the ruthlessly competitive men and women of Madison Avenue advertising, an ego-driven world where key players make an art of the sell while their private world gets sold.

Cast: Jon Hamm, Vincent Kartheiser, January Jones, John Slattery, Elisabeth Moss

Recommendations: If you loved season 1 of Mad Men, then I don’t even have to convince you to watch season 2. This is your chance to get caught up before the season 3 premiere on August 16.
