Mad Men on AMC • Fifth Season Thread

One-upping Joan...

I was not at all expecting that first link to be a picture like that and I'm in shock now

She's cheery, funny and sincere-any girl would long to be her BFF (and ask if she's down for trading outfits).

*barf*

and just wait until she starts telling you about her friend xenu...

"One of the greatest things I heard someone say about him [Fred Armisen] is, 'He's so great at doing impersonations. But the greatest impersonation he does is that of a normal person.' To me, that sums it up."

i have no love for fred armisen, but E.M. has a bit of a credibility problem: she's a scient0logist.

Fun David Chase quote in this piece:

"‘Seinfeld,’ they ended it with them all going to jail. Now that’s the ending we should have had. And they should have had ours, where it blacked out in a diner.”

I agree, but I can always appreciate a good burn.

She's a Hollywood scientologist-by-birth I think, so maybe less damaging to her credibility.

pretty sure you can switch up once you hit puberty?

If this is really I am buying it. Vodka + ice cream = yum

I meant, if this is real.

The alcohol in vodka wouldn't freeze at normal freezer temps and the ice cream would be runny

signed, the guy who would pour bacardi over mint chocolate chip ice cream

how do you explain rum raisin then?

The raisins aren't completely frozen and are embedded in frozen ice cream?

yeah but you still put some rum in too. It does make it harder to freeze but it is possible

they couldn't sell it if there was so much alcohol that it would prevent freezing. the alcohol must cooked off at some point.

well yeah, you're not gonna get drunk off it

A real Mad men-themed ice cream would

guys they're flavors

of ice cream

does this ever start?

The series in general? Sort of yes, sort of no.

relieved that Bert's in the promo pics for S5. was gonna be bummed if he'd been written out.

some spoilers here but nothing that drastic/unexpected:

Pretty cool, the best bit imo is the intro recreation.

Now the black people are protesting outside, as if threatening to become actual characters. I see go-go boots and shorter skirts and blocks of trippy color. I see the first hint of plumage on the men. Don and Megan’s new high-rise apartment is a splash of white carpet and zebra-striped pillows. It’s like their world is about to burst, as we’ve always known it must. This updated “Mad Men” is a mind-blowing retrogasm.

It's like when you watched the Beatles Anthology for the first time and halfway through everything started being in color.

if any of u are canadian you can do this on premiere night:

I get the CBC, yay!

:)

what a promotional coup!

would watch (if i had CBC)

I honestly feel sorry for anyone who doesn't have it, because watching hockey would be a pitiful affair without it.

Ya pretty sure CBC planned it that way!

woah thats awesome s1ocks!!

lol, they changed the photo that originally accompanied the piece to a much better one

CBUT but no CBC here ;_;

more like jessica parve, mirit

I'm a sucker for demanding girlfriends

JP took exception to that description on my FB haha

can I be fb friends with you to see this s1ocki, it is important for my personal development

does itunes put up MM eps right away?

I think it's usually within 24 hours, but there have been weird exceptions

i wanna host a screening party on sunday night but i dont have cable is the thing

Yeah, I think you're probably out of luck on that unless they do something odd about the digital release schedule or if someone has pirated and uploaded the preview copy.
