This advice is totally useless if you’re not watching Mad Men — and if you’re not and you’re someone who actually owns a TV, I’m not exactly sure what you’re doing with your life — but the weekly edition of Mark Lisanti’s Mad Men Power Rankings, now hosted at Grantland.com, is really one of my favorite reoccurring online features. Sure, it’s spoiler heavy, so don’t read it until you’ve seen the most recent episode, but Lisanti’s non-recap-recap of the show is incredibly funny and far more interesting than the standard “here’s what happened” style of most TV show recaps.
A highlight from this week’s edition:
9. Meredith the Idiot Receptionist and the Tiny Plane on the Pedestal (tie) (last week: not ranked)
If you’re not going to perform your basic job function, you can’t really be surprised when someone throws a tiny plane at you.

What happened on the last episode of Gilligan’s Island……I’ll wait till you look it up Dan…
@Bob Cap: You’re messing with the wrong guy here, as I consider myself a little bit of a Gilligan’s Island expert. The last episode wasn’t any different that the rest. The producers thought there would be a fourth season, so they did a standard “stuck on the island” episode. If I remember correctly, a tribal king from another island visited looking for a bride and the castaways tried to give him Gilligan. Oh, the laughs!
The movies, however, are something else entirely, but honestly, barely worth mentioning.
Thanks Dan…….
