Let’s Discuss: Just When Did Last Night’s Mad Men Flashbacks Take Place?

It was the biggest mystery of last night’s alcohol drenched Mad Men . No, not how Don Draper brought home a diner waitress amid a 48-hour bender. Rather, just when were those jarring, pre-Sterling Cooper Don Draper flashbacks supposed to take place? Ahead, senior editor S.T. VanAirsdale and I attempt to clear up this muddy Mad Men timeline.

The 9 Most Scathing Critical Responses to January Jones’s Emmy Style

Listen, I am no fashion critic, and Movieline’s “9 Most Scathing” feature very rarely extends beyond the realm of terrible new films . I also know our female celebrities face an endlessly difficult challenge of finding a balance between classic red-carpet appeal and envelope-pushing couture. So in that regard, I tip my cap to January Jones, whose Emmy look in Versace represented an eye-popping embrace of risk, presence, glamour and about 80 or 90 discarded blue mylar balloons. True, Jones’s de-accessorized, bedheaded, train-for-days style had its fans. But its critics are speaking a little louder today, and, well, they’re right. Read on for a noteworthy cross-section.

If they succeed, the dedicated fans will set the world record for longest continuous cinema sitting… at three days . Deep vein thrombosis be damned!

Ari Graynor Will Torment Jonah Hill’s Sitter

We’re well-documented fans of Ari Graynor here at Movieline, so we were heartened when out sister site Deadline told us that the actress would be joining Jonah Hill in David Gordon Green’s The Sitter , where she’ll play a manipulative girlfriend who wrecks Hill’s night of responsible babysitting.

Jimmy Fallon on the Emmys, Playing Wii with the Queen, and His Fantasy Mad Men Project

For the past two weeks, Jimmy Fallon has been spending his Late Night vacation days in Los Angeles as he prepares to host this Sunday’s 62nd Emmy Awards, an esteemed gig that will put him in the company of legendary entertainers like Lucille Ball, Ed Sullivan, Frank Sinatra, and Johnny Carson. Unlike the hosts before him, the Saturday Night Live alum will be relying on his Twitter network for intros and in turn, NBC will be relying on Fallon to smoothly move the telecast along, skirting any potential grenades that the Outstanding Variety Series winner might bring. With this in mind, Movieline caught up with the late night host at an NBC party a few weeks ago to discuss his take on award shows, his recent social networking failure, and Will Arnett’s greatest Emmy diss.
