But they're two completely different kind of shows. I'd say Mad Men is closer to what The Sopranos is. A character study of a very flawed person. The mob activities/ad agency stuff is secondary to the character.
I think Boardwalk Empire is plot first, character second. It seems to be about plot point A to B from week to week, although I do like the exploration of Nucky's early life to give some context about why he is the way he is at the present.
