  • Comings & Goings: Mad Men, Viva Laughlin | Roush Dispatch | 10/18/2007
    You could get vertigo tonight, scaling the heights of the finale of Mad Men on AMC, and then plumbing the depths of the tone-deaf misfire that is Viva Laughlin, premiering on CBS in the plum slot after CSI before moving to Sundays. There, only those with the most morbid curiosity to watch a show’s slow yet hopefully quick death are likely to follow (unless every critic I know is totally off the mark).First, a salute to the best and most fascinating new show to arrive on TV this year (and I’m even including my quirky new treasure Pushing Daisies in that equation). Mad Men, so hypnotic in its look and style as it recreates a classic movie-worthy image of 1960 Manhattan, is a period piece that says volumes about today, or about any era in which salary and status is tied to self-worth and where people construct a false reality to sell themselves on the American dream.Don Draper (instant star Jon Hamm) would seem to have it all.

    Reality guru Mark Burnett has sold to NBC a midseason show called Amne$ia, in which contestants are quizzed on key events from their lives, TV Week reports.

  • Ask Matt | 8/20/2007
    Just wondering about your take on Viva Laughlin. Is it really as bad as some of the critics are making it out to be, or is it the musical aspect that some people just can't stomach? I'm quite intrigued by all of the CBS promos for Viva ? Hugh Jackman! Melanie Griffith! I'm there for at least the first few episodes! read more
