Mad Men What’s Your Price? Written by Duana Nikki Finke is reporting that talks between AMC and Matthew Weiner might be disintegrating. There are three items of contention: 1) Product placement 2) Shortening the show by two minutes – enough to fit one more commercial break and 3) losing two cast members in an effort to By Lainey • Mar 29, 2011 03:39 am
Quiveration Sundays with Jon As Duana noted yesterday, that might not happen this year. Click here if you missed yesterday’s Mad Men delay article. F-cking network.

Quiveration Jon Hamm and buttholes It is my pleasure to open this Friday with a post about Jon Hamm and anuses. I assure you this is the plural for “anus” because, as you will see, he discovers that himself. (Thanks to Lisa/Ann for sending along the link!)

Quiveration Best SAG Actor...even with a slight hair problem Admit it, there was too much height happening with his hair. Admit it. Just a little. Just a little overlifting. It wasn’t bad from every angle, but from some angles, it wasn’t great either. It wasn’t however as distracting as his tiny bow tie from the Golden By Lainey • Jan 31, 2011 05:17 am
Quiveration Jon Hamm in the pool? I heard that Jon Hamm, his too-small bow tie, and Jennifer Westfeldt hit up the Chateau Marmont at some point after the Globes on Sunday night. And he jumped into the pool, underpants only. (Thanks N!) No one had the good sense to send me a blackberry photo. Sometimes it’ By Lainey • Jan 18, 2011 09:01 am
Assy Style Globes Worst Bow Tie: Jon Hamm He is a fine looking man. But he got out of his car, live on camera, and Lara and Michelle straight up shouted at the same time in shock over his little bitsy bow tie. This … became a distraction. It also made his head look huge. Now you know how By Lainey • Jan 17, 2011 05:03 am
Quiveration You’re never second best In 2010, Jon Hamm was runner-up to Ryan Reynolds for People’s Sexiest Man Alive. Entertainment Weekly, in their Top 10 list of Entertainers of the Year, ranked him second after Taylor Swift. Um, Jon Hamm is #2 to no one.

Best Worst of 2010 Best & Worst of 2010 Written by Sarah (Lainey intro: I asked Sarah for her thoughts on the best and worst in our ongoing Year in Review feature.

Zombies What’s next for Officer Rick Written by Sarah The Walking Dead season one wrapped up on AMC Sunday night with record-busting numbers. Season two is scheduled to premiere in October 2011, which is a long time to wait for something I love so much, but if it means they’ll approach season two with the By Lainey • Dec 07, 2010 03:26 am
Patrick Dempsey The perennial first runner up For years, at the height of Grey’s Anatomy’s popularity, Patrick Dempsey was always second place. And back then – why am I talking like it was 1960? – Dr McDreamy was just as buzzy as Don Draper. And remember, on a main network like ABC, Grey’s ratings dwarfed Mad By Lainey • Nov 18, 2010 10:35 am

Jon Hamm Emma before Jon It’s almost unfair. If they had given Emma Stone better material to work with on Saturday Night Live, she would have been amazing. But they didn’t and it wasn’t it. And this week it’s Jon Hamm for his third time. Jon is never not good. Chances By Lainey • Oct 29, 2010 07:15 am
