AMC is going to be airing the entire first season of “Mad Men” back-to-back-to .. well you get the concept on July 26 to prepare for the very welcome start of season two July 27 (wow .. new TV in the summer that doesn’t involve someone doing a face-plant into a giant rubber ball!)If you can’t wait t…
An “Arrested Development” movie? The stars seem to think so
I still won’t believe that one until - and probably after - there’s solid confirmation in the trades, but two of the stars of Fox’s best sitcom in many, many years certainly seem to be certain there’s an “Arrested Development” movie in the works.First comes word from Jeffrey Tambor, a k a George Blu…
Bond, James Bond … and possibly even better spy games to come

Robot dialogue coach?!?! How do I get that job?
In case anyone who’s never been here before doesn’t know it, I - like many folks in the world - am simply a sucker for Pixar movies, so be warned you’re gonna build out a whole lot about “Wall-E” here that week until and possibly after I get to see it, probably Saturday dawn.Sunday’s Arts & Leis…
