Und noch ein dritter Eintrag heute: AMC hat gerade ihren Weblog aktualisiert und angekündigt, daß am Sonntag, den 27 Juli die erste Folge der 2. Staffel von Vincent's Mad Men gezeigt wird. Davor, am 20. Juli gibts noch einen Marathon aller 13 Episoden, weiterhin kann der Kalender für 2009 vorbestellt werden :-)

Season Two Premiere Is Officially Announced by AMC

Need a fix of Don Draper? Want to know how (or if) Peggy is dealing with motherhood? AMC officially announces the premiere of Mad Men Season Two: Sunday, July 27 @ 8PM | 7C. To get you ready for the second season, AMC will have a Mad Men marathon of all 13 episodes of Season One on Sunday, July 20 starting at 12PM | 11C.

Want to do your homework even sooner? The first season of the series will be released on DVD July 1 and is available for pre-order for $10 off the retail price in the AMC Store. Fans can also look forward to the release of the compact disc Mad Men: Music from the Series, Vol. 1 on June 24 and a 2009 calendar soon thereafter.



Sounds good to me, just a couple of weeks to wait :-D
And here the first very small impression of the Mad Men 2009 calender:

This is the second post I have to make today: I found this article about Vincent's Mad Men at "The Envelop" @ Los Angeles Times. It doesn't have any actual news in it, more some general comments on the quality of the show:

Und noch ein Eintrag heute: soeben habe ich einen Artikel in der Los Angeles Times entdeckt, in dem ein kurzer Überblick über Vincent's Mad Men und ein paar Bemerkungen über die Qualität fallen gelassen werden:

The first season of Vincent's Mad Men will be aired on Canadian TV from June 8, 2008. The article provides a short description of the show, tells the schedule and mentions most awards but Vincent's. I think, it's time for AMC to sell the show to Germany :-)))

Vincent Kartheiser's Mad Men hat es jetzt nach Kanada geschafft, dort wird ab 8. Juni die erste Staffel ausgestrahlt. Neid :-)

According to AMC "...Mad Men has officially moved from the planning stage into reality this week with the beginning of production in Los Angeles. The series which will be broadcast in both high definition and standard definition will make its bow this July. While series creator Matthew Weiner has been customarily coy about divulging potential plots points for the upcoming season, he has revealed that John Slattery will be returning to the show as Roger Sterling..."

I'm really curios about that, because Vincent told us, that he will have a new boss in the next season, what wasn't actually surprising, considering what happened in Episode 13. So will RS appear as an adviser? He still owes the place as much as Cooper does, so he might show up once in a while in and gave the new boss and everybody else but Don a hard time? Could be interesting :-)))


AMC hat bekannt gegeben, daß die 2. Staffel von Mad Men sich jetzt in der Produktionsphase befindet, John Slattery als Roger Sterling wieder dabei ist und im Juli 2008 startet. Das ist interessant, da Vincent mir ja erzählt hat, er bekäme in dieser Season einen neuen Boss. Ob RS, dem ja die Firma zum Teil gehört, ab und zu auftaucht und allen außer Don nervt? :-)))

I posted yesterday about a Vincent Kartheiser scene from Mad Men's episode 1.13 The Wheel which was claimed by AMC as been deleted. But obviously some of had seen it, so today I found at Worldpress the explanations for it: According to Roberta Lipp this scene was only shown at the premiere airing of this episode and cut out later. And this didn't happen only one time, so this is a quote of what she wrote in her blog:


Ok, that means for all of us that if we have "taped" the first airing we should hold on to it no matter if we buy the DVDs or not


Ich habe gestern darüber geschrieben, daß AMC eine nicht mehr in der Episode enthaltene Szene von Mad Men 1.13 mit Vincent auf ihrer Webseite zum Anschauen zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Heute habe ich bei Worldpress eine Erklärung dafür gefunden, nämlich dass die einzelnen Episoden nur bei der ersten Ausstrahlung komplett waren. Schade eigentlich! Das bedeutet jedoch in jedem Fall, dass wir die Aufzeichnungen der Erstausstrahlung in jedem Fall behalten sollten, unabhängig davon ob wir uns die DVDs kaufen oder nicht.

Kartheiser_grl posted yesterday, that there is a clip on youtube which shows an Interview with Vincent Kartheiser focusing on Mad Men, Angel and the appearance of clips with him on youtube. The talk was hold by BBC4 and only accessible for UK people. Well, I managed to download it as a flv-file and uploaded it to my German Website, so here it is! It's about 3:30 minutes long and has a size of 10 MB. Of course you need a flv-player of your choise compatible to your computers operating system to watch it. You're welcome to download it, you can do it using the "Download flv-file" link or clicking on the picture below.

So enjoy it :-)))

While I was looking for a way to download the lastest interview clip with Vincent Kartheiser - the one Kartheiser_grl was referring too today - I found a little 30 second Clip in which he's advertising Mad Men for BBC4. It's a flash clip, so you need a player for *.flv files to watch it. I give you direct link to download it: Download link
