SEB: mad men s05e08 episode review The power of Mad Men is the ability to go into dark places but stay amusing. Lady Lazarus, as dark and disturbing this episode was, was also one of the funniest this season yet. It says something about advertisement, I guess. Even when life looks like baked beans, it [...]

SEB: mad men s05e09 trailer, episode preview Mad Menepisode promos are not telling much usually. They’re more about the mystery, the rythme, and especially what about the characters don’t say. In the next episode of Mad Men, the ninth out of thirteen this season, the characters must deal with some Dark Shadows. And although in [...]

SEB: mad men s05e08 episode promo What does Magen really want? Ist it a quieter life with Don, or a new carrer path for herself? If you’ve watched last week’s episode of Mad Men, you remember what her father has told her (“you’ve given up”). A girl never forgets such a sentence from her father. [...]

SEB: mad men s05e07 episode preview, trailer After we’ve visited all those far places in last week episode of Mad Men, this week things are getting real. The plot summary for At The Codfish Ball is pretty laconic: Don, Roger and Pete attempt to bring in new business. Sally comes to the aid of a [...]

SEB: mad men s04e06 episode review Last night on Mad Men, we had a chance to see things from a different perspective. Peggy saw things from a different perspective after the new writer told her he was born in a concentration camp. Even Beans didn’t affect her this way. And Roger went into an LCD [...]

SEB: mad men s05e06 episode trailer Next week on Mad Men things are looking slightly brighter, but only for a moment. The new writer is back, Peggy is making a mistake, Magen doesn’t seem too happy – and Don is focused on business again. Read last week recap – Mad Men season 5 episode 5 [...]

SEB: mad men s05e05 episode review After the horror story we got last week from Don’s inner devil, this week’s episode was even darker. No, Don didn’t kill anyone yet (although his rope drawing during the meeting was maybe a hint for the future) – but the darkest places are usually not bleeding, they’re just [...]

AMC is really pissing me off. Breaking Bad season 4 premiere did very well but the cable channel wants to make serious cuts for the planned fifth season. Sounds familiar? Just a few months ago, after a long and tedious negotiations, AMC has made the deal with Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner, and perhaps it [...]

SEB: tca awards nominees Later this summer we will hear what the Television Critics Association loved most this year. This year’s TCA Awards would be hosted by Parks and Recreation‘s Ron Swanson – Nick Offerman (so no matter what the critics chose, it’s going to be a hell of an event). A group of around [...]

SEB: mad men 5 spoilers, Jon Hamm There’s a lot of shoosh around the upcoming season of Mad Men, but here’s the first detail we got for you. It appears that the first episode of Mad Men season 5 is going to be directed by Jon Hamm, the star of the show. It will be [...]

SEB: Mad Men watch online, Netflix After entering the world of original drama, with the David Fincher/Kevin Spacey upcoming drama series House of Cards, Netflix now exclusively buys the rights for Mad Men in an off-network syndication deal, a first-of-its-kind for Netflix. The deal between Netflix and Mad Men producer Lionsgate gives the online streaming [...]

SEB: mad men season 5, mad men season 6, mad men season 7, Matt Weiner Finally AMC/Lionsgate and Matt Weiner have agreed and the Mad Med fans can start counting: the series will return for three more seasons, the fifth season to premiere probably in Spring 2012. This is not very soon, but at least [...]

SEB: Mad Men season 5, Matt Weiner AMC was just about to seal the deal with Lionsgate and showrunner Matt Weiner, and to make Mad Men season 5 official. But this deal is taking very long and we won’t get to watch the fifth season of Mad Men this summer (all the other seasons until [...]

I recently ran into some very good covers for the Mad Men intro song. The original opening credits sequence uses the song “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2, whos songs feature in other series, such as CSI:NY, the movie Paradox, and various advertisements. Adam Ben Ezra plays the Bass and turns it into 10 different instruments, [...]

Showtime hasn’t released the premiere date of The Borgias yet, but the previews are here. I’m very excited about the show. After Mad Men‘s 1960′s and Boardwalk Empire‘s 1920′s, I’m ready for The Borgias‘ 15th century Italy. Orgies in church? Neil Jordan (The Crying Game) is directing? Jeremy Irons will star? Sounds like a very [...]

After listing my Best 5 New TV Series Of 2010, it’s time to check how the older and wiser series are doing. Of course it’s a tough call to make, as there are many good shows that are still on, and in some cases the more they’re here the harder it gets to really appreciate [...]

I don’t usually review The Simpsons, not because I don’t like the show – I think it’s great and almost always pretty funny. Also, in the last years the creators of theshow allowed themselves so much freedom, that what I said in my last review for Community fits also in The Simpsons case – it’s [...]

My review of last night’s Simpsons episode, Donnie Fatso, featuring guest star Jon Hamm, will appear in the following post. But watching this funny Simpsons episode reminded me on the parody The Simpsons have made to Mad Men, and this parody reminded me on some other great parodies for Mad Men. The Simpsons Mad Men [...]

Actor Rich Sommer, who plays Harry Crane on Mad Men, had a massive twitter accedent last week. He wrote a vague thing, about Mad Men not having season 5, and made a huge buzz over nothing. Perhaps Sommer really needs somebody to write the words for him, because what he meant was very different than [...]
