I’m a big fan of cross-referencing TV shows. Some are just made to be compared, although you don’t quite realize it until you watch one right after the other.

I am speaking of course, about The Amazing Race and Mad Men. Just think how awesome it would be if the folks from MM decided to go on vaycay with Phil Keoghan, work on their personal issues, and pursue a cool million in the process?

Here are the teams:

Don & Betty Draper: Married parents from Ossining, NY. Married nearly a decade, the Drapers have what appears to be a picture perfect life. However, their marriage is crumbling under the weight of infidelity, Heineken, red wine, the horsey set, and distressingly plaid capri pants. Don & Betty view TAR as their last chance to save their marriage, or at the very least another excuse to further exempt themselves from parenting their two kids.

Dick Whitman & Annie Draper: Friends, sort-of spouses, and holiday companions from San Pedro and…I have no idea where Dick Whitman is from originally. In a first for The Amazing Race, one man will participate on two teams simultaneously. How DickDon tackles the sensitive nature of his multiple teams’ dynamics is sure to be an inspiration to other men afflicted by dual lifestyles.

Peggy Olsen & Father Gill: Catholics from Brooklyn. Unfortunately, Peggy is in for a bit of a shock, as she thought she was being escorted by Father Gill to pitch another Young Person’s Dance to her church’s auxiliary guild. Instead, she found herself surrounded by large backpacks, a priest, and Phil Keoghan. Oh, and her babydaddy…Pete.

Pete & Trudy Campbell: Newlyweds, from New York City. As is de rigeur for each season of TAR, one woman’s biological clock has to tick out of control. At press time, Trudy’s father and Pete were arm-wrestling to determine who would get to go on any Travelocity Roaming Gnome “You are TEAM NUMBER ONE!” trips with Trudy. Special consideration has been made to avoid traveling to countries where Trudy could secretly adopt a child and bring it home with her. Keep an eye on her…especially for challenges which do not specifically call for a Roaming Gnome.

Joan Holloway & Roger Sterling - Man about town and woman about town from Manhattan. After Joan dumps her domineering ass of a fiance and Roger dumps his 20-year old whatchamacallit, they realize the next logical step in their relationship is to “take it to the next level” by appearing on a reality television show. Be on the lookout for Joan’s “ARE YOU LOOKING AT MY BOOBS?” t-shirts and “ARE YOU LOOKING AT MY ASS?” shorts.

Ken Cosgrove & Salvatore Romano: “Co-workers” from New York City. Chip & Reichen, or Oswald & Danny? You make the call.
