Vincent Kartheiser and Elisabeth Moss, Mad Men
In case you've been living under a rock, Mad Men returns Sunday night, and the critically acclaimed, multiple Emmy-nominated AMC drama wastes very little time sucking viewers back into its slick, dazzling world.
But as satisfying as the Season 3 premiere is (yes, we've seen it; no, we won't spoil it... much), Mad Men devotees hoping for answers to all their burning questions will be, as usual, out of luck.
Read our recaps of Mad Men's second season
What you will see is this: Don (Jon Hamm) and Sal (Bryan Batt) take a business trip to Baltimore to reassure a jumpy client. Sterling Cooper's merger with a British firm will loom large. And viewers will get resolution to that cliff-hanger announcement that Betty (January Jones) is pregnant.
What's become of Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) and Pete (Vincent Kartheiser) since she dropped her own baby bombshell, however, is clearly out of sight. But that doesn't mean it's out of mind.
"I don't think it's dead, and I don't think it will never come up again," Moss tells TVGuide.com. "But I think ...

Elisabeth Moss
While Don Draper is washing his sins away in the Pacific, Pete Campbell is losing an account over in-law squabbles and Sterling Cooper's partners are allowing the agency to be sold, at least one of Mad Men's characters has it together: Peggy Olsen. Or does she?
One thing we know for sure is that she now has a new office to go with that new hair cut. And while Peggy probably cares most about getting away from that noisy Xerox machine, actress Elisabeth Moss was more than ready for Peggy's new 'do. "I was so glad to be rid of that ponytail," Moss says. "I wore it every day, with a few exceptions. You just have no idea how badly I wanted it gone."
After the jump, Moss teases a "satisfying" answer to viewers' questions and Peggy's big confession.

Jon Hamm by Jim Spellman/ WireImage.com
Jon Hamm, a Golden Globe winner and likely Emmy nominee, isn’t taking the critical success of Mad Men for granted. “It’s phenomenal. It’s a wonderful experience. But the swirl that happens around the show exists outside the show.” Still, as he quotes his co-star John Slattery, “It makes you feel like … you’re not crazy. Other people like good stuff too.”Critics certainly like good stuff, and AMC’s session promoting Mad Men’s upcoming second season was easily the biggest lovefest so far in the TCA press tour, currently in its first week devoted to cable presentations.The group laughed when a critic challenged the show’s famously tight-lipped creator Matthew Weiner to explain to fans why the mystery surrounding what happened to Peggy’s illegitimate baby — the jaw-dropper of the Season 1 finale — remains unresolved by the end of the July 27 season opener. “I would say, trust me. I will give you the informat...

NBC has recruited a long list of noted directors, actors and writers for its 13-episode suspense and horror anthology series Fear Itself. The series, produced by LionsGate and Industry Entertainment, will boast the work of award-winning horror directors John Landis (An American Werewolf in London), Darren Bousman (Saw II), Brad Anderson (The Machinist), Mary Harron (American Psycho), Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator) and Heroes' Ernest Dickerson. Superman Returns' Brandon Routh and Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss join Cynthia Watros (Lost), Eric Roberts (Heroes) and Larry Gilliard Jr. (The Wire), along with a boatload of other actors who will earn some screen time in one of the series' episodes. And just what kind of horrors can you expect? Landis' "A Nightmare in Lace" follows a bride who receives word on her wedding day that her groom is a serial killer, and Harron's "Community" features a young couple who find their dream home in the perfect neighborhood (until their neighbors start killing ...

Question: In the first episode of Mad Men, we see Peggy going to a doctor and getting on the Pill. (Who can forget that he smoked through the entire appointment?) Women on the Pill don't always get their periods like they would normally, and in 1960? Sheesh, who knows how effective the Pill really was or what its side effects were. Peggy is a very naive person, so the fact that she was in denial up until the end was in character for her. Don't forget, too, that this show is about the advertising game, and any woman on the Pill back then probably did think "that's impossible." I, for one, was very glad it played out as it did and that we were spared the inevitable abortion episode. While it remains to be seen if her initial rejection of the baby lasts, in real life, a woman in 1960 in her position would have no choice but to give it up for adoption. Even if she wanted to keep it, she wouldn't be able to. I thought Elisabeth Moss did a great job of conveying that in the scene when the ...

Elisabeth Moss in Mad Men courtesy AMC
Jeers to Mad Men for marring its brilliant finale with a boneheaded twist. Don't get me wrong, I've adored every other moment of AMC's swinging-'60s drama (OK, except when John Slattery's Roger Sterling puked after walking up too many stairs — that was a stretch). But when secretary-turned-copywriter Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) discovered (Spoiler alert, for the DVRing crowd) that the reason for her mystery weight gain was that she was unknowingly pregnant — and she promptly pushed out a healthy-looking baby — I groaned along with her. This smacks of the kind of soap-operatic plotting this achingly subtle series has so skillfully avoided during its first season. In short, it made me a mad man.
