The First Image from Mad Men’s Fourth Season Arrives

It isn’t officially online yet — cheeky Entertainment Weekly actually forcing people to buy the magazine to get their content — but in the latest issue of EW , there’s a surprise for fans of Mad Men : The first new image of season four. And — SPOILER — it looks exactly like any other image from Mad Men ! Though considering the show can only do so much with wardrobe — Don Draper won’t be caught wearing a suede vest until season seven at the earliest — what did you expect? After the jump, the photo and a few more non-reveals from Matthew Weiner about where the new season is headed.

Conan O’Brien Heads to Bonnaroo, Looks for ‘Boobies’

Conan O’B rien is officially everywhere. The gangly red head drove his “Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television” tour bus into Manchester, Tennessee on Friday for an appearance at Bonnaroo, where fans waited eight hours in stifling heat to see him perform. Once on stage, Coco joked that in six months he went “from hosting The Tonight Show to performing at a refugee camp.” Oh Conan — you so crazy! While at the music and comedy festival, O’B rien also took time out to act as hype man for Nas and Damian Marley. And before you make a joke, just know Conan already did: “I’m here because when you think reggae and hip hop, you think Conan O’B rien!” After the jump, video of Conan introducing Nas and Marley and a plea from the TBS host to see some “boobies.” Hey, it is Bonnaroo after all.

Is This the Most Eerily Prepared Child Star Ever?

I was under the assumption that Disney Channel stars endured the worst It Factor hard-wiring, but Nickelodeon just debunked that with an atomic “It” bomb named Reed Alexander. He’s a 15-year-old iCarly actor who fancies himself a Mario Batali for tweens, and he’s prepared for a syndication deal. Alexander appeared this morning with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb on Today to talk about making “great make-ahead desserts” that are “so fun for your friends in the summertime.” Which is fine! Except that he’s the most frightening child you. Have. Ever. Seen.

Catching Up with George Segal About Mike Nichols and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf Rehearsals

At Thursday’s AFI tribute to Mike Nichols, famous faces from the director’s 50-year career in film, theater and television filled the red carpet. Before the ceremony, we caught up with George Segal, the actor who shot to prominence with an Oscar nomination in Nichols’ first film Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf . We asked Segal about his then-green director, memories of Woolf with his Oscar-winning co-star Sandy Dennis, and the specifics on his new TVL and show Retired at 35 .

Aaron Johnson Joins Spider-Man Casting Derby, Despite His Own Reservations

It looks like Sony may have taken a few of our suggestions for casting the Spider-Man reboot, as two new names have been thrown into the mix. According to the LAT , both Aaron Johnson ( Kick-Ass ) and Anton Yelchin ( Star Trek ) have squeezed onto the short list assembled by director Marc Webb. The irony? When Movieline last spoke to Johnson about assuming the role, he was decidedly uninterested.

Real Housewives of New York Reality Check: Jill Zarin Comes Under Reunion Attack

Last night, the Real Housewives of New York City cast assembled on a magenta couch in midtown Manhattan for the first of a three-installment reunion. The ladies answered Andy Cohen’s hardball questions — like, “Alex, why was your husband so bloated this season?” and “Ramona, have you had anything injected into your face lately?” — and then scratched each others eyes out. Click through for the moments (and disses) that made the Movieline Real/Fake alarm sound.

So You Think You Can Dance Top 11: Who Won the Non-Competition Round?

Last night So You Think You Can Dance treated us to a nonthreatening exhibition round. The competitors weren’t competing — they were simply introducing themselves in cute choreographed numbers for the weeks to come. Totes cute. It’s like in the ’90s when the USA Network used to broadcast women’s exhibition tennis, and the point of watching was how attractive they were. “Gabriela Sabatini Vs. Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario! HOT and LIVE and in Dayton.” But what would a recap of SYTYCD be without a declared winner? We’ve picked the best performance from the night, one with sly wit and a genius costume change.

Dina Manzo Leaves Real Housewives, But Who Should Go Next?

If you watched this week’s Real Housewives of New Jersey until the very end, you probably caught the two surprise reveals that Bravo buried in the teaser for next week’s episode: 1) Danielle Staub has a sex tape and 2) One housewife is leaving the show. Most viewers probably assumed that those two revelations were interconnected — the cast members would badger Danielle about her latest scandal until she snaps, punches Teresa in the face, and is ejected by Bravo producers. However, the controversy-prone Danielle isn’t the one jumping ship — that’d be Dina Manzo , the most reasonable of the cast members. Who else needs to go?

Newt Gingrich, Carpetbagger For God, Made a Movie About the Pope

Not the current pope, alas, who could actually use some conservative hagiographical spin right about now, but the previous pope — John Paul II, whose efforts to combat totalitarianism through faith are chronicled in the Gingrich-produced documentary Nine Days That Changed the World . The former House Speaker and Georgia Republican has traveled with the film to the late pope’s homeland of Poland, where he spoke Wednesday of the political change that Catholicism can effect under Communist regimes in Cuba and China. And, one can only presume, in America, where the film will make the university rounds this fall just in time to combat the Obama-flavored socialist scourge jockeying for public office. Hold it just a second, Newt — I thought you were a Baptist ?
