It’s Saturday, time to figure out where we’re going to watch Mad Men on Sunday night. Without cable, we’re left to find a bar, restaurant or friend’s apartment where we can indulge in one of our favorite television shows.
Last week I called Sheep Station and asked if they were showing Mad Men.
SS Bartender: Sorry, someone spilled a drink on the video projector and it’s not working.
OTBKB: Really?
SS Bartender: Yeah, someone spilled a drink on the video projector. It’s Labor Day weekend and we can’t get it fixed.
OTBKB: Someone spilled a drink on it?
SS Bartender: Yeah, I think it was Don Draper.
OTBKB: Oh, you’re pulling my leg.
SS Bartender: Really, though, the video projector is broken so we won’t be showing Mad Men tonight.
OTBKB: That’s too bad. I’ll call you next week to see if it’s working again…
So I guess I’ll give Sheep Station a call, see if their projector has dried out. I’ve missed the last three shows though my sister has kept me up to date. Last week sounded really fun what with Peggy Olsen’s strip tease game with her art director. She’s developing into quite an interesting character.
And we’re missing out unless we can find somewhere to watch the show…
