Jon Hamm on #TheNerdist on BBC America #Mad Men

This Saturday Jon Hamm from Mad Men will be the guest on The Nerdist on BBC America, along with Betsy Brandt from “Breaking Bad” and Rich Summers (Harry Crane from Mad Men).

I was (totally stoked) very happy to be at the taping of this show. So look for me in the audience. Jon Hamm was his usual ridiculous self. How this man ended up finding fame in a character as unfunny as Don Draper, I have no idea. The whole taping was hysterical, but pretty blue. So much so that I'm a bit curious how they are a. going to edit it for television , and b. cut it down short enough for the segment. Thank god that's not my problem.

If I have any criticism of this show it would be the set. I know last season's set was strictly public access TV, but I liked it. Now it is very smooth and professional. Oh well, it still has the rest of it's components so I won't start a letter writing campaign just yet.

For all my Mad Men posts 

Orphan Black Premiering on BBC America

BBC America is debuting their new show Orphan Black March 30 at 9 pm (check listing). I've seen the first episode and it is riveting. Without giving too much away, I'll tell you it's a thriller that takes identity theft to a whole new level. The first episode was action packed with a huge amount of information imparted, so pay attention. I get the feeling this is going to be one you need to remember the tiniest of details.

The show is premiering right in the middle of BBC America's Super Natural Saturday. Which means it's lead in is Doctor Who and The Nerdist afterward both premiering their new seasons March 30, . Coincidentally  I'll be attending a taping of The Nerdist on the 30th of March. So I'll have more details on that show for you soon, though I'm already a big fan, and can highly recommend it!
