The Long Goodbye For Mad Men

AMC, following their strategy for the final season of Breaking Bad, has decided to air Mad Men's (which launched their Original Series brand) final season in two installments. The first 7 episodes (The Beginning) will run in spring 2014 and the final 7 (The End of An Era) will air spring 2015. Creator Matthew Weiner believes the two installments for the final season will allow him to create a "more elaborate story."
We're not sure if it feels like prolonging the death of someone who is near and dear to you or if it's the feeling of not wanting to let go. Bad boy Don Draper has become part of conscious, as have the other cast members. We discuss the shows as they air and the day after. We hope Weiner will find a life for some of these characters somewhere (as Sex in the City did). We want to know if Don Draper becomes an ultra-right republican in his old age.

Looks Like Kerry Washington Couldn't Fix SNL

Image
Reviews for Kerry Washington's appearance on SNL , considering Saturday Night Live was dealing with a very public issue concerning the lack of black females on the show, seems to have focused the diversity problem (like a laser) on the writing staff as well. Could diversity among the writing staff be the issue, too?

'Game of Thrones' Season 4 Is King

Image
Ratings At 9PM on April 6, a total of 6.6 million viewers (including us) were watching the often bloody and grisly "Game Of Thrones" season 4 premiere. This was GoT's most-watched episode  to date, and the most-watched episode of any HBO series since 2007. Season four of GoT was up 52% from season three's premiere. Another 1.6 million viewers watched the show at 11PM and 1AM. Bringing the Nielsen's ratings up to 8.2 million. HBO GO (where our members were able to get caught up) is expected to drive the numbers even higher. As we've stated before, we just wish GoT would pick up the pace just a little bit.
