WHO WANTS A MAD MEN DOLL?

JANUARY 21, 2010

Rumor has it that Mattel is planning on releasing a Barbie version of Don and Betty Draper. However, I doubt they could top the above prototype, soon to be featured in Haute Doll Magazine.

One of our wiki members, Michael Williams, photographed this Ken / Don prototype. Michael says:

I shoot for Haute Doll Magazine (www.hautedoll.com) and we'll be featuring an eight-page spread in our April 2010 issue of an amazing miniature reproduction of Don Draper's office, complete with furniture, as well as six of your favorite characters in 1:6 scale.

JON HAMM TO HOST SNL AGAIN

December 8, 2009

Jon Hamm had a great time hosting "Saturday Night Live" last year. I, for one, was delighted by his James Mason impersonation. He is a hot commodity in Hollywood these days, so Hamm has been scheduled to host the show again next month.

Be sure to look for him again on "Saturday Night Live" in January. Maybe we'll see another commercial for his delicious John Ham.

MAD MEN / X-MEN MASHUP ART

Hopefully, even non-comic book fans will appreciate this mashup art from MADATOMS. If you've seen just one of the X-Men films, then this should make sense to you. I think it's brilliant!

JON HAMM TO CO-STAR IN FINAL SHREK MOVIE

NOVEMBER 24, 2009

Jon Hamm's career is busting wide open right now. He has a slew of new projects to work on before the next season of Mad Men, including the final Shrek movie! He will provide the voice of a resistance leader, according to USA Today.

Hamm will actually be an ogre, if you can believe it. According to director Mike Mitchell, "He is the best looking ogre you've ever seen." Naturally!

REAL-LIFE McCANN RESPONDS TO MAD MEN

NOVEMBER 18, 2009

At the end of Mad Men's third season, we saw Sterling Cooper being sold to McCann Erickson. Although Sterling Cooper is fictional, McCann is not. Recently, the giant firm humorously placed ads in publications that read, "Welcome, Sterling Cooper." There is also a shout-out to the show on McCann's New York site, McCanny.

According to The New York Times, McCann didn't know about the on-screen merger until they saw the finale. However, they had a great sense of humor about it, even though some characters reacted negatively to working for McCann.

On a personal note, my husband mentioned to me today that he used to go into McCann's Dallas office all the time when he was a courier in college. He said it wasn't a "sausage factory" at all, as Mad Men proclaims. Instead, there were free chips and drinks everywhere (courtesy of their clients) and everyone in the office played Doom against each other on Fridays. Sounds like a swell place to work, if you ask me!

JANUARY JONES HOSTS SNL

NOVEMBER 16, 2009

Last weekend, January Jones hosted Saturday Night Live and it was very refreshing to see her smiling! There were many standout sketches for Jones on Saturday, including her as a Grace Kelly type in a Hitchcock spoof. However, it was this one that really made me think of Mad Men.

NEW INTERVIEW WITH MATTHEW WEINER

NOVEMBER 13, 2009

Big thanks to shaynarose3 for tipping us off about a recent Q&A with Matthew Weiner. The Mad Men creator opened up about season three and answered some questions we have been kicking around.

Remember when some of us were just positive that Miss Farrell was going to turn all Fatal Attraction on Don?

Matthew says:

I think the idea of a woman who wanted to have sex with a married man and enter it with her eyes wide open about that was very confusing to people and they thought the story had to lead to him getting caught, because I’m telling a story. But it’s not conscious on that level, it’s really not.

Well, I think we've learned by now that this show is completely unpredictable. The rest of the interview is just as enlightening. You can read it here.

LIFE SHOWCASES THE REAL CONRAD HILTON

NOVEMBER 11, 2009

Mad Men has incorporated a lot of real-life clients and personalities into its storyline, but none so influential as Don Draper's adoptive "father" – Conrad Hilton.

Life online has put together a great slideshow featuring the real Conrad Hilton, an extremely influential man (and the great-grandfather of Paris Hilton).

Don't you love seeing pictures of stars before they were famous? Usually, it's comforting to know they had an awkward stage, just like the rest of us. Not Jon Hamm, though. A picture of him from his high school football days surfaced this week and he was always handsome.

MAD MEN INTRODUCES A WHOLE NEW FIRM

NOVEMBER 9, 2009

What a finale! Don, Roger, and six select co-conspirators managed to escape the doomed Sterling Cooper and start a completely new company. It took a lot of fast thinking, fast talking, and fast action to pull it off, but they pulled in all the right people and now they're off and running.

A quick look at the staff of the brand-new Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce:

Don Draper Tipped off by Conrad Hilton Don was the first to learn of the PPL sale, and unhappy at the prospect of working for McCann, he got the conspiracy to start a new firm rolling.	Bertram Cooper Recruited by Don At first reluctant to take any action over the sale of Sterling Cooper, Bert was swayed by Don's passion for the ad business.	Roger Sterling Recruited by Don & Bert Roger came around when he realized that he'd never actually started his own company. He brought the critical Lucky Strikes account with him.
Lane Pryce Recruited by Don, Bert, & Roger No longer an outsider, Lane's power to fire the Sterling Cooper execs was crucial to their plan, as was his knowledge of corporate finance.	Pete Campbell Recruited by Don & Roger What the new firm needed most were accounts, and Pete came through, swayed in part by the fact that Don chose him over Ken.	Peggy Olson Recruited by Don Still bitter at Don, Peggy proved the hardest one to convert. But Don kept after her and finally convinced her that she was irreplaceable.
Harry Crane Recuited by Bert Needing someone to manage the new firm's media, Bert & gang essentially ambushed Harry and left him little choice but to join them.	Joan Harris Recruited by Roger It quickly became clear that the new firm wouldn't stand a chance without Joan's expertise, and one call from Roger was all it took to bring her aboard.	Trudy Campbell Along for the ride Not technically employed by SCDP, Trudy is so excited and supportive of the new project that she's taken to bringing them lunch... and cake.

There's also the question of those left behind, namely Paul Kinsey and Ken Cosgrove. Is that the last we'll see of them? And don't forget that Sal Romano is still out there somewhere as well...

THE BEST (AND WORST) WORKPLACES ON TV

This week we celebrate the Mad Men season finale with a look back at 30 of the best (and worst) offices in television history, from Al Swearengen's inner sanctum to J.R. Ewing's bullet-ridden desk chair.

MAD MEN HEADS FOR THE BIG FINALE

NOVEMBER 4, 2009

Mad Men's third season has certainly been the most eventful yet – and with one more episode to go, a whole lot of questions still hang in the air. Will we get our answers, or are we going to get the mother of all cliffhangers?

	Will Betty leave Don for Henry? If so, will she also abandon her children for the "fairy tale?"
	Will Joan ever find her way back to Sterling Cooper? Is Greg destined for Vietnam?
	Will Roger's marriage to Jane make it another year? How long can he survive without Joan?
	Is Peggy finished with Duck? Will she leave Sterling Cooper for greener pastures?
	What happens when PPL puts Sterling Cooper up for sale? Is Lane destined to wind up in Bombay?
	Will Pete really take up Duck's offer to join Grey? Can Ken handle the pressure of his new VP position?
	Is Sal gone for good? Will Sterling Cooper find a new Art Director?
	Where has Conrad Hilton been? Does the Sterling Cooper sale open up a takeover possibility?
	Will Guy ever golf again? (Sorry. Couldn't resist.)

Tune in Sunday for (maybe) some answers! And in the meantime, share your theories and predictions for the Season 3 finale!
