Tuesday Tease: The New MAD MEN Season 5 Promo Poster is In, Don Draper Ogles a Naked Mannequin
Posted by mistergroonk in Marketing, One Sheets, Television on February 28, 2012
The Mad Men minimalist teaser poster made the rounds mid January 2012.
Now we have this “nonverbal representation” to whet our appetites until Mad Men returns to our collective TVs. Series creator Matthew Weiner had this to say about the image in the New York Times.
“This is a dreamlike image,†Mr. Weiner said, likening it to work of the Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico, who specialized in surreal, mannequin-like figures.
The image is “a nonverbal representation of where my head is at and where the show will be,†Mr. Weiner said.
“By the end of the season,†he said, “I guarantee you’ll know what it is about.â€
A “nonverbal representation” eh? We see the glorious previous 4 seasons of Mad Men, a show about high-powered, fast tallking advertising executives in 1960s New York City, was not a fluke.

Matt Parsons mixed our love for Adventure Time with or love for the best Star Wars movie(EMPIRE STRIKES BACK) and made it a shirt. That’s a lot of love to put on one body.

Music Break: Game of Thrones Theme on Violin and Piano
Posted by mistergroonk in Intertube Madness, Music, Television on February 11, 2012
YouTuber Lara6683 took a request to play the GAME OF THRONES theme song on her channel. We have an unabashed love for the Game of Thrones series and books. So if there’s a fan made cover out there we’d be hard-pressed not to post it.
If we have the timing down we will be playing Game of Thrones drinking games by the time this posts.

Music Break: Download Adam WarRock’s “Parks + Rec” EP. It is Free and Epic. Waka Flocka Swanson!
Posted by mistergroonk in Digital Share, Just Freaking Neat, Music, Television on February 9, 2012
What it is: In the latter weeks of Janurary 2012 Adam WaRock dropped a three track EP dedicated to the television show Parks and Recreation (Parks & Rec to those in the know). Mr WarRock has already fed our nerd rap needs for months with his constant tracklog updates and the shiny “Browncoats Mixtape” released back in the fall of 2011.
The Parks & Rec cast know of the album. Jim O’Heir(Jerry) and Ben Schwartz(Jean Ralphio) sent out their tweets of appreciation. Now if only the show runners use one or all the songs in an upcoming episode. We know the former CEOs of Entertainment 720 would be all over these jams. But would Leslie Knope and Ron Swanson be on board? Write it up, writers!
The popularity of his Parks + Rec EP took WarRock by surprise. We don’t know why. The album is mint. Our favorite cut is “Knope 2012” featured directly below. The other two cuts, which tie at second in our book, “Waka Flocka Swanson” and “Knope 2012” lay below the jump.

Moment of Who: Experience Every Doctor Who Episode from 1963 to Now in Under 10 Minutes
Posted by mistergroonk in Television, Video on January 30, 2012
YouTuber Babelcolour assembled a mighty tribute to science fiction drama on television. Anything that promotes the wonder of Who is aces in our book. While watching we noticed the subtle changes in the show’s style over the almost 50 years of its history.
The 2nd Doctor’s Who-mobile(we’re not kidding) was especially striking. And by ‘striking’ we mean ‘a bit silly.’ The 70s were crazy as hell.
Moment of Who: “What would I have seen you in?”

Twitterer @timbentinck says this is an old actors joke. Despite our knowledge of entertainment and thespians, the particular joke in question escapes us. The main thrust of the punchline doesn’t.
Bit of an actor’s joke, but it made me titter. yfrog.com/ki4fzvxj
