VUDU has Mad Men: The Complete Series (Digital HDX) on sale for $19.99.
Thanks community member KayOttik for sharing this deal
About this TV Series:
Set in 1960 New York City, in an unexpected new world - the high-powered and glamorous "Golden Age" of advertising - where everyone is selling something and nothing is ever what you expect it to be. The drama unfolds around Don Draper (Jon Hamm), the biggest ad man in the business. As he calls the shots in the boardroom and the bedroom, he struggles to stay a step ahead of the rapidly changing times and the young executives nipping at his heels.
This deal takes me back to one of my all-time favorite slickdeals. For a brief few hours on the morning of 9/15/20, this collection was on sale for $7. It appeared to be a price mistake, because IIRC, each of the individual seasons was also on sale for $7.
Ironic, considering you're watching a show about advertising.

LOVE this show and huge value at $20...but I HATE the VUDU screening option for television series. It is so clunky when you put a show down and try to pick it up again later...doesn't intuitively know where you left off (especially in multiple viewings)
Well I'm on my 4th watch of the show so no commercials saves me a lot of time and will save me more time on my 5th+ watch
LOL
Well..if you have watched same show 4X times already it sounds like you have a lot of free time. I say that assuming you also watch other things as well besides Mad Men

I hadn't seen this and wasn't super interested in watching it but I jumped on that deal just because it was so cheap and it ended up being one of my favorite shows ever. Best $7 I've ever spent.

I don't have kids so relatively speaking, I have a fair bit of free time when I'm not working. It takes 30 days of about 3 hours of watching per day to get through it with no commercials. I can easily do that in a 3 month period, all while watching and doing other things. I save about 15 hours worth of commercials while watching the whole series through. I bill $200 an hour for my time so spending $25 (I bought it before this sale obviously) to skip commercials is well worth it to me. If 15 hours of your time is worth less than $20, that's your decision.
Not exactly the same, but if you like 50s - 60s time period shows you might like the Prime Video show The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel[amazon.com].
Final season drops April 14!
As for Mad Men (also got in on the $7 deal), I'm in the minority, but I think the first two seasons are some of the best TV I've watched. Seasons 3 and 4 are also great, then it kind of fades until you have to slog through season 7.

The next episode shows up for me under my "Watchlist." It does this for me on all of my devices: Roku, Fire, and Android. When I'm binging, that's where I go.

I guess I missing something
How you choose to use( or waste) free time has nothing to do with what you " bill per hour"
Really..since you like Mad Men so much, would you not just prefer to sit and watch it , on repeat, at the rate that you " bill per hour"?
For me..its more about what I prefer doing , than what I " bill per hour" in regards to my free time

Yes, you missed my entire point. I'm talking about why it's worth spending the money I earned to just buy the show. If I'm selling an hour of my time for $200 and I paid $25 for the show, I spent 7.5 minutes of my time working to avoid 15 hours of commercials.
Time is not infinite, and I enjoy my free time. And I no longer enjoy spending my free time trying to explain this to you, so this is my last reply.

You clearly missed my point....free time and " billing hours" are not on the same level and not comparable
You statement proves that
" If I'm selling an hour of my time for $200 and I paid $25 for the show, I spent 7.5 minutes of my time working to avoid 15 hours of commercials."
But hey...since you say you have watched the same thing 4X times I guess that speaks for itself

That deal is right up there with the whole james bond collection on vudu for 9.99 for a couple hours. They corrected it to 99.99 shortly after

When I watched this on VUDU it insisted on queueing up the behind-the-scenes features in between the episodes, and once it tried to play a bts feature BEFORE the episode it corresponded to. This was at least a year ago, so I'm not sure if they've fixed this since then. Most of the seasons don't have any bts features on VUDU anyway, so it's not too bad, especially for twenty bucks
