Gordon's story about Paul McCartney's invovlement in the next series of Mad Men is a little confused. First, he's writing music: Paul McCartney writes for hit telly series But then, he's not actually writing, just licensing tracks: The show's producers felt his new album mainly of American classics, Kisses On The Bottom, would be perfect for the show and moved swiftly to sign a deal. But even that makes no sense - why would a series that pays attention to period detail the way Sun photographers pay attention to the cast of [...]

Awesome new original from Jon Defreest and Vulture . As Vulture says, the fictional Scotch & Smoke Magazine would certainly be Don Draper's favorite.

Nothing says I love you quite like a love note from Jon Hamm, the actor who plays Don Draper on Mad Men. The company behind the Hamm-o-gram say it's "like a classic telegram, where you send a special someone a transcribed message, usually in letter form. Except this message is always a picture of handsome actor Jon Hamm (with a lil' somethin' extra)." It costs $5, but a portion of that goes to the charity A Caring Hand . The Hamm-o-gram is at once the most ridiculous thing and also the greatest thing. Can't [...]

"I'd never really considered the Vader-Draper parallels before, but they're not a stretch, except for Dick Whitman not being nearly as punchable as Annakin Skywalker," notes Maske over at Uproxx . And he's right. Designer Dann Matthews swapped out Don Draper for Darth Vader for the opening credits of Mad Men and somehow the whole thing works. It's good to know the sci-fi geeks and classy, period drama lovers can coexist in harmony.

AMC's hit television show, Mad Men, is promoting their upcoming fifth season with this minimalistic one-sheet teaser poster. The show returns on March 25, 2012 with a much-anticipated two-hour premiere.

What's happenin', hot stuff? I'm psyched to be here this morning and have recovered from watching a truly terrible film last night.

The long, national nightmare is finally over now that AMC has confirmed the fifth season of Mad Men will drop March 25 and that it's going to be a two-hour episode.

Un buongiorno a me e un buongiorno a voi. Quando Giorgio mi ha chiesto di entrare a far parte del novero di autori di JunkiePop ho fatto un controllo di sicurezza: mi sono andata a leggere la lista del meglio della tv dell'anno secondo The AV Club . Non sarà l'elenco definitivo, ma è molto rappresentativo di quello che succede sul piccolo schermo che interessa a noi (noi come generazione di tardoni digitali, noi come giovani ed ex giovani pressoché bilingue, noi che difficilmente guardiamo la programmazione di Italia1... noi, insomma). Il risultato è piuttosto sconsolante: delle [...]

We are pleased to announce that Saturna song Periwinkle is featured during the closing credits in the upcoming film The Pact . The film will open during the 2012 Sundance Film Festival where it has been selected to screen during their Midnight Series. Entertainment Weekly says, "This is a more classic horror film, working on tension. It's not about gore or violence. It's a ghost story, and really well done." The Pact was written [...]

Che ormai la tv se non il primario è il quasi primario mezzo per la stesura di nuovi linguaggi, tanto per quello che riguarda le sceneggiature quanto i personaggi e le trame vere e proprie (Aaron Sorkin per dire, viene da lì e ora di là se lo litigano) per il cinema il 2011 è stato forse l'anno con più alto valore qualitativo di sempre sparso nelle varie serie tv. Ormai (o siamo noi che ci facciamo caso ora) il panorama è completissimo, ogni branchia tematica è occupata da uno o più racconti e insomma. Se vi va qui sotto [...]

Una settimana fa avevo sbrodolato tantissimo parlando di Homeland (ancora non lo vedete? davvero?) parlandone come della serie dell'anno. Conoscendomi (io e le persone che mi conoscono) sanno che sono una persona di facilissimi entusiasmi (che poi mantengo ma insomma parto da ODDDIO HO VISTO LA MADONNA e arrivo a sì caruccio) quindi non smonterò per nulla Homeland (che rimane serie dell'anno fino a prova contraria), ma rilancio su me stesso. E rilancio con Boss. Parliamo di un serial prettamente politico, la sinossi brevissima è la diagnosi al sindaco di Chicago (Tom Kane) di una malattia rara simile [...]

"It came to me in the middle of last season. I always felt like it would be the experience of human life. And human life has a destination. It doesn't mean Don's gonna die. What I'm looking for, and how I hope to end the show, is like … It's 2011. Don Draper would be 84 right now. I want to leave the show in a place where you have an idea of what it meant and how it's related to you. It's a very tall order, but I always talk about Abbey Road. What's the song at the end [...]

Major Lazer has made us wait an extra three months for "Original Don," but man was it worth it. The track is finally in full form and is a certified banger, and Tone-approved. It's dancehall at its best as that lazy reggae pace gives it some serious swag. Switch's heavy drums take front and center, equipped with the expected signature snare rolls, making for a beat that will bring out the crazy legs in all of us. "Original Don" is more of an epic than we're used to from Major Lazer, taking some twists and turns before reaching its [...]

A l'issue de la saison 3, on avait laissé Don Draper en plein changement. Il divorçait d'avec sa femme Betty et voyait l'agence de publicité Sterling-Cooper en pleine restructuration, évoluer vers une association Sterling-Cooper-Draper-Pryce. C'est donc en 1964, dans une époque de mutation, un[...]

¿Qué haríamos de las series de TV en la actualidad? Con cada vez menos cosas interesantes dentro del circuito del cine comercial (y casi puro remake), las series se han convertido en un oasis. Puedes seguir las aventuras de un asesino de serial-killers que trabaja como forense en la policía de Miami o quizá disfrutar de la comedia de humor negro en la que un profesor de química desahuciado decide convertirse en fabricante anfetaminas. En fin, las TV series, pequeñas obras de arte de la actualidad inspiraron a diversos artistas a realizar muy personales trabajos en los que plasman su [...]
