* SmugSnake: Him and the other British overlords.

* PretentiousPronunciation: His first name is pronounced "Sint-Jin".
* SmugSnake: Him and the other British overlords. In particular, casually firing Lane after keeping the secret of PPL being sold from him, only to have Lane and the other top Sterling Cooper executives basically steal the entire agency out from under him.

TRS has defined The Beard as "fake straight relationship to hide being LGBT". Fake-dating examples that don't fit this go in Fake Relationship or one of its other subtropes. Low context/unclear examples will be deleted.


* TheBeard: So very much, not that she seems to realise it.

TRS wick cleanupMatzo Fever has been renamed and is being cleaned


* MatzoFever: Lampshaded. Particularly in the first season, ''Mad Men'' acted like Jews were a distant and exotic tribe to the main cast of the show, who, while mostly conservative [=WASPs=], were after all New Yorkers in the advertising business and probably wouldn't have been ''that'' befuddled and bedazzled by them. When SC does business with Israel's ministry of tourism, Don arranges lunch with Rachel to pick her brain, and she asks if she's the only Jew he knows in New York. (She is.)

Added DiffLines:

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Don after [[spoiler: Anna dies]]. Don tries to treat Stephanie as a second platonic and supportive relationship, but their generation divide and backgrounds (Don is a self-made man from nothing; Stephanie is a California girl who ended up losing everything) don't mesh well.

Added DiffLines:

* ObnoxiousInLaws: Averted. Ken deliberately avoids roping Ed in with business. They end up forming a friendly bond with one another, in stark contrast to Pete and his own father-in-law.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: He's only in [[Recap/MadMenS3E6GuyWalksIntoAnAdvertisingAgency one episode]], and — if the above hasn’t made it clear — it’s the episode where a guy gets run over by a lawnmower. Guy is that, err, guy.

Guy is that, err, guy. And that incident sets up the chain of events that leads to Don, Roger, Joan and several others abandoning Sterling Cooper to form SCDP.
