Mad Men update


Fear not, Mad Men fans, series creator Matt Weiner has been re-signed to a two-year deal with AMC. There had been concern when the third season was announced in October with Weiner's status in limbo, and salary negotiations were said to be contentious. But the Emmy-winning show lives and dies with Weiner and AMC apparently realized it couldn't continue without him. Season 3 is on track to premiere next summer -- July, in fact -- with a fourth season likely the following summer.

Speaking of Mad Men, series star Jon Hamm will make a guest appearance on an upcoming story arc of 30 Rock as Liz Lemon's new love interest. I'm concerned -- such a convergence of favorite actors could very well make my girlfriend's head explode.
