This promotional art for Mad Men Season 3 suggests that some pretty bad shit is coming. Season 2 ended with the Cuban Missile Crisis, and S 3 apparently takes places in 1963 - so, Kennedy getting shot; that would qualify as bad shit. The show has always been brilliant at bringing real life happenings into the story, like that episode where Marilyn died and all the women were despondent. And the '60 election when they were all at the office getting loaded and fucking like the world was coming to an end. Which some of them thought it was after Nixon lost.
