Want to be the coolest Mad Men fan ever????
Heard of this television series, “Mad Men”? A few guys and a few gals work in an agency, sell a couple ads, have a couple laughs? Are you so eager for the premiere of its fourth season that you’d leave your home and brave Times Square to watch it an hour before the rest of the East Coast? Or are you so sick to death of that show’s rabid fan base that you’d like to arm yourself with a few advance details so you can ruin the surprises for your “Mad Men”-worshiping friends? (Seriously, though, don’t do that.) Would you just like to meet the actress who plays Peggy Olsen?
An event on Sunday night may satisfy all of these contingencies. AMC said it would show the “Mad Men” premiere in Duffy Square (between 45th and 47th Streets and Broadway and Seventh Avenue) at 9 p.m. – that’s one whole hour earlier than the poor saps who pay for cable television every month will get to see it. The screening will be preceded by “Mad Men” costume contests and other events, and is to be attended by Elisabeth Moss, an Emmy Award-nominated star of the series. Spoiler alert: Season 4 will pick up where Season 3 left off!
The dolls are part of a premium-price collectors’ series for adults that Mattel calls the Barbie Fashion Model Collection. Although there have been Barbies and Kens based on other TV series, among them “I Love Lucy” and “The X-Files,” the dolls will be the first licensed line for that collection, Mattel says, with a suggested retail price of $74.95 each.
My obsession with Mad Men continues....
Great interview with the set designer of Mad Men (which is the BEST show ever on television….if you haven’t discovered that yet!)
Some of my friends attended the Mad Men wrap party on Saturday night @ Cicada in Downtown L.A.
They observed the following:
-January Jones (Betty Draper) is the tiniest thing in the world
-Jon Hamm (Don Draper) is fucking HOT
-Unattractive plain Peggy Olson is really pretty in real life
Another fact that was revealed at the wrap party is that viewership for the show has dropped tremendously (I don’t know why…it’s a fabulous show), and they are on the verge of being CANCELLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So if you have not discovered this show yet, please start turning in to:
AMC
Sundays @ 10pm/9C
You won’t be sorry!
