"Mad Men" on AMC (US) - (Spoilers Within)

[Lady Day]

Incidentally, speaking of Superman reboot, I see no one here jumped on the bandwagon for JonHamm to play the next ClarkKent.

Karl Urban needs to be the next CK, seriously.

January Jones News....bun in the oven

If the show was on its usual filming schedule - i.e., was half-done now - they could hide it easily . But since they're not going to be shooting until the fall, I'm guessing that Betty will be pregnant again next season.

Upcoming `60s shows

FYI an article on new network shows. Two 60s shows in the mix. One on the stewardesses & pilots of Pan Am (ChristinaRicci), another a mob show at the Chicago Playboy Club:

I was just watching The Chrysethemum and the Sword and although I still really enjoy Mad Men, and cannot wait for the next season, I hope they bring some of the old magic back. Mostly I mean the supporting cast that went missing in Season 4 as SCDP was born. After so much time, lets just jump to something new instead of the "oh no! the company could fail!" theme and bring back Kinsey, Dale, and for god sakes Salvatore!

Reference what happened during the whole loss of Lucky Strike with flashbacks... and wouldn't it be fun if Sal came back and the fellas decided to do a smear campaign on Lee Jr? I don't know I'm just throwing ideas out that I want to see.

What does anyone else want to see?

 

[Bernie Zack]

Definitely bring Salvatore back! I want to see more crazy Betty scenes, like when she was shooting the neighbors pidgeons!

 

[Mr Vim]

Ah that was a great moment from the first season.

Oh and Aaron Staton has an interview on gamespot for his role in the L.A. Noire video game.

I got two out of three right. And what the heck was on what's her names head?!

 

[Tomasso]

Somebody got paid.....

 

[MrBern]

Somebody got paid.....

Seems so. http://www.deadline.com/2011/06/jon-hamm-locked-into-mad-men-for-3-more-years/
I wonder if three more seasons ends MadMen neatly at the end of 1969....

What was it? Simply her TV commercial snack.

 

[Tomasso]

Christina Hendricks out and about in LA.

I would not have recognized her.

 

[RichardH]

Me neither, looks like she gained some weight compared to that pic on the right..
I can't wait for it to get back on the air again though!

 

[MrBern]

Here's a shot of her from a day before, at January Jones' baby shower

[Tomasso]

Her figure is much better suited to dresses.

Arrrrrg. Sad sad that we have to wait so long for the next season. I'm glad that's back for a few more seasons and I understand why it's going to be late (negotiations etc) but people tend to forget shows when the wait is too long. True fans like us will not, but I'd hate to see it die because of that. Glad Matthew Wiener stuck to his guns re cutting back the length of the show and getting rid of key characters. Not happening now, thank goodness. But we have to wait til January 2012!!! Arrrrrrrrggg
