Mad Men Reviews, Interviews & More
Last night, Mad Men returned to the world of shared drug use. “The Crash” saw a motley crew from the still unnamed agency indulge in illegal medical enhancement. Through the rose colored glasses of influence, our dark heroes enchanted us with their stories.
Merging isn't without its problems on Mad Men. "Man With a Plan" focuses on the currently nameless agency, along with all the trouble it creates. With John Slattery in the director's chair, the episode held a certain air, but it wasn't enough to hide a slowly creeping oversight.
If you thought last week's episode slowed momentum, you were wrong. Mad Men's barely giving you time to catch your breath. "For Immediate Release" changed the face of the business we love, in more ways than one.
Last night's Mad Men dealt with a historical loss—the death of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "The Flood" left everyone grasping for understanding much like those who really suffered through the tragedy. While people were reeling, one or two developments still managed to break through.
Mad Men continues to impress this week. “To Have and To Hold” resonates in more ways than one. As Don grapples with the price of his wife’s success, a light is shone on Joan’s current state.
Just to make us squirm a little longer, AMC has officially announced that one of its three crown jewels (the others being Mad Men and The Walking Dead) will be returning this summer, as planned… but about a month later than was expected: the premiere date for the final stretch of Breaking Bad episodes will be August 11th. Not only that, Breaking Bad will...
Mad Men is back in its element. “Collaborators” saw Don and Peggy warring with their staff and clientele. But that was the least of Don’s problems. The weight of his past and present is weighing on him. He’s not the only tortured soul as Joan and Pete battle life’s drama as well.
The wait is over: Mad Men has returned. "The Doorway" was a powerhouse premiere that dealt with the show's recurring nemesis -- death. As the episode blinked into focus and Dante's Inferno was recited a calm fell over the room. Don Draper is right where we need him to be.
AMC's hit show Mad Men is all about competition, secrets and lies amidst the glamour of the 60s advertising world. While Don Draper and company have been dealing with the ever-changing decade, they took some time out of their busy schedule to go to a party, of course.
Matthew Weiner dropped yet another stylish poster for the upcoming season of Mad Men. As always, he loaded it with tons of intriguing clues, but revealed nothing (he loves to torture us, no doubt). But this new ad is a lot different from ones we've seen these past few months. Take a look.
Already in the running for one of the greatest TV shows of all time, Mad Men returns this April for its penultimate season. After an intense fifth year, we're hoping that the show sticks the landing as it heads into its final stretch. And we're more excited than ever because of this teaser for the new season.
When it comes to Must-See TV, 2012 brought it! The medium upped the ante with shocking deaths, surprise marriages and a wicked acid trip. There were plenty of watercooler moments that covered Hollywood and politics (we're looking at you Clint Eastwood). ScreenCrave's selected the top 10 that kept us buzzing days after their debut.
This is a good week for animation on Blu-ray. You get one of the summer’s better animated titles and some classic Looney Tunes action. You also get one of the year’s best films and one of the best shows on television, along with some pretty bad summer movies. It’s good week for home video, all things.

The 64th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards weren't perfect -- Hollywood ceremonies rarely are. Whether its the blatant snubs, harsh crowd or predictability, they're never up to snuff. Thankfully, Sunday's show offered a few bright spots. 2012 will forever be the year Homeland usurped Mad Men, and Jon...
It used to be that winning an Emmy was considered sub-Oscar, but now that television is getting to be on similar artistic footing as cinema, it's surprising that winning one still isn't that great an accomplishment. Perhaps it's because of the stodgy and repetitive picks of their academy. Here's the full list of their 2012 nominations :
Last night, AMC aired Mad Men’s fifth season finale and it was almost worth the wait. After episodes full of ups and downs, everything came to a semi-rewarding close. “The Phantom” featured the return of Alexis Bledel, Pete's obsession and possibly "Old Don."
Mad Men is a man down after Sunday’s penultimate episode. “Commissions and Fees” brought a resolution to a piece of plot that’s been up in the air for quite some time. But the solution may not be to every fans liking. Proceed with caution, there are spoilers ahead.

Mad Men’s affair with mediocrity is over; last night was everything fans have been clamoring for. “The Other Woman” focused on the show's ladies taking a stand where they saw fit as Don and his creative team struggled with the Jaguar pitch. Drama burrowed its way into every moment of the episode.

Praise be to Krishna! Last night’s episode of Mad Men shone a light on the movement of the late 1960s, Hare Krishna. “Christmas Waltz” features the return of Michael Gladis as Paul Kinsley, the man for whom all fads become fashion. As the season creeps to a close, will fans finally get what they really want?

Sunday's episode of Mad Men, entitled “Dark Shadows,” featured many quarrels; some fleeting and a few that will shape the rest of the season. As Don regained his footing in the workplace, a glimpse of his vintage, brooding self came out of hiding. Hello old friend, you have been missed.
