You Should Read the Mad Men Power Rankings

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.
