Mad Men May Not Return
Despite winning Best Drama Series at the Golden Globes this Sunday, the return of critic and audience darling Mad Men is not, in fact, set in stone. Creator Matthew Weiner told E! News, “I don't know anything about next season—I don't even know if it's happening.” He is locked in a contract dispute with the network; AMC claims the show will land on the summer schedule as planned. Christina Hendricks, who plays busty star Joan Holloway said, “There is no show without Matthew.” Weiner advertised his knowledge: “You know me, I'm very forthcoming…And I don't even know what to tell you. I don't know what to say… I've done everything I can. That's all I can tell you.” Guess the highball is in Lionsgate’s court now.

So typical. A show is successful and an actor, producer, etc. wants more. In this economy Weiner is damn lucky to have such a dream gig. "I've done everything I can." Yeah, right. If he doesn't reach an agreement he will be responsible for a large number of actors and crew out of work and the demise of a great series.
