RUN FOR OUR LIVES!” We honestly had no idea he was camping in the middle of the jungle on The Island from Lost. But as usual, Doc is correct! This week’s main source of entertainment has come from people behaving badly. READ FULL STORY »

'Mad Men' pick up lines: 'Anybody mind if I take off my pants?'
If superimposing your face onto Joan Holloway’s body (because come on, obviously that’s who we all would want to be) wasn’t enough to hold you over until the July 25 premiere of Mad Men, you’re in luck. Here’s a look back on all of the show’s classic moments of borderline sexual harassment pick-up lines (some have proven to be more effective than others): READ FULL STORY »

'Mad Men' Starring You!: JibJab leaves Lois fans out of the fun
Remember when your step mom sent you a JibJab Christmas card with family members’ heads superimposed onto dancing elves? That got a chuckle, right? Well, now JibJab is in on Mad Men fever — working itself up into a gin fizz in anticipation of the July 25 premiere. All those Facebook friends who last summer changed their profile pictures to avatars of slinky, smoking secretaries and dapper Dans can get a little refresh on events past while stepping into their beloved characters’ selves. Warning: Be careful whose heads you paste on the Betty and Don bodies because you’re basically foretelling the real-life couple’s doom. But it’s always a safe bet to make someone fan favorite Joan or Roger. Me, I would’ve liked a spin on the runaway lawn mower, so I don’t understand why JibJab won’t let me be Lois.
What say you Mad Men fans? Will you indulge? Which character have you missed the most during the hiatus? How many friends do you have that dressed up as Joan on Halloween?

'Mad Men': It's hard to get obsessed with promos that tell us nothing. But I'm a go-getter and I did it!
Pop Culture Pet Peeve: Ubiquitous promos that tell us nothing about the new season. Come on, Mad Men: Give me something! A glimpse at which plaid Don will be draped in during rare cozy-time scenes! A [click-click-hair toss] from Joan! An explanation for what Don Draper was up to in the great outdoors during filming! I want at least one new mysterious word-clump of dialogue per promo per week until the July 25 premiere, so we can continue to needlessly post them here and figure out what it all means. Video’s after the jump. READ FULL STORY »

The 100 Greatest Characters of the Last 20 Years: Here's our full list!
To help celebrate Entertainment Weekly‘s 20th anniversary (one more year and we can finally drink booze!), the writers and editors have carefully curated a list of the 100 greatest characters in pop-culture over the last 20 years. Whether the fictional women, men, ogres, muppets, babies, and cartoon rockers who made our list were initially created before 1990 didn’t matter so long as they made a lasting impact in the culture after 1990. Some characters were so inseparable in our minds and hearts — like a certain highly articulate TV mother and daughter, for example — that we simply listed them together. (Hey, it’s our list, so we get to make the rules.) Rest assured, we carefully deliberated, debated, argued, and bickered over who would make the cut and where they deserved to be ranked; after you take a look at our list, please feel free to do the same in the comments.

Jon Hamm, if I were your makeup artist, you would never have to cut it out with the rough play
Image Credit: Splash NewsDon. Don! Over here. I’m writing you this fan/love letter in my brainwaves. Why don’t you ever pick me up like this? I could be your makeup artist and I wouldn’t dream of holding an open bottled beverage so close to your white shirt. You could just keep running, you know. You wouldn’t have to return me. No way would you incur any late fees on the library book Meditations in an Emergency because I would not report the crime to the police. Where would you want to go? Maybe we could drive down the coast in this hot red car. You’d snap, “This fresh ocean breeze has mussed up my coif. Fix it,” and I would.
Jon Hamm on-set for season 4 of ‘Mad Men’ in San Pedro, CA, 5/5/2010

'Mad Men' returns July 25: Mark your period-specific desk calendars
Mad Men is officially set to return for its fourth season at 10 p.m. Sunday, July 25, according to The Hollywood Reporter. So that is when we will learn what’s to become of the dissolved Sterling Cooper and the dissolved Draper marriage. And whether this heralds a new, lighter, screwball-comedy era for Mad Men, as that finale kind-of hinted. And how much fabulous early-to-mid-’60s fashion you can cram into one show.
Are you counting the days until Mad Men‘s return, PopWatchers? Is your anticipation heightened even more now that creator Matthew Weiner is hinting there could be only two more seasons after this? (Related: If you clicked on that link, am I the only one who does want to see Don Draper in a leisure suit, contrary to AMC’s intimations?)

'Mad Men' done after six seasons? Not so fast...
Image Credit: AMCIs the end in sight for Mad Men? That’s the rumor today, swirling after Matt Weiner apparently told members of the National Association of Broadcasters that he couldn’t see the show going past a sixth season. (The fourth season is supposed to start airing this summer.) Except that’s not exactly what AMC says. According to Mad Men‘s home:
“No one wants to see Don Draper wearing a leisure suit. We trust Matthew’s vision and that he knows where to take the show. But with that said, M*A*S*H figured how to stretch the Korean War for more than a decade, so stay tuned!”
Oh, snap! A healthy six seasons could be a long enough run for Mad Men, but who knows what we’ll all be saying two years from now? I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see it go longer — the third season ended at the end of 1963, which means there’s plenty of ’60s goodness left to be milked. (Weiner’s rep has yet to respond to EW’s calls.)
Quality not quantity, right, PopWatchers? Do you think specific ends in sight help or hurt shows?

Christina Hendricks is a woman men love. Officially.
Mad Men‘s Christina Hendricks graces the new cover of Esquire‘s “Women.” issue. Her curves look so good even I want to reach out and touch them. (Then ask her whose idea it was for her to eat watermelon seductively for an inside shot. I guess we’re supposed to be waiting for the juice to drip onto her ample cleavage? I suppose that’s more creative than having her lick an ice cream cone, which wouldn’t have matched her nail polish.)
Hendricks also penned an open letter to men revealing a number of truths about the way women think and what they want/don’t want from a man. Give it a read, guys. She speaks the truth about why you get laid (intelligence, humor, and your smell*), and offers helpful tips such as, use the word “panties” more, and “No shorts that go below the knee” and “Also, no tank tops.” I tend to agree with her on just about everything, save the statement “No man should be on Facebook.” I don’t consider that a deal breaker. Ladies, did Hendricks get it right?
* Anyone other than me still love the smell of Drakkar Noir? [Answer.]
