wellllll this is odd

Mad Men and Office character comparisons.

I admit that have not seen too much of Mad Men but I'm pretty sure Don Draper is a terrible comparison to Jim Halpert and Kelly Kapoor is not a billionth as awesome as Joan Holloway.

More in "awesome shows I don't watch but maybe need to"

Guh, I love that poster SFM. I really need to watch this show.

Dear dumbass movie reviewers:

Please stop comparing Revolutionary Road to Mad Men, either favorably or unfavorably. Yes, Revolutionary Road was written in 1961, around the time that Mad Men takes place; however, Revolutionary Road is set in 1955, a very different era. Seriously, this is from someone who hasn't even seen the GD movie, nor all that much of Mad Men.

Love,

Via Ausiello: Mad Men Star Poached by The Office.

Hmmm. So Anne Hathaway's sort of gay best friend from The Devil Wears Prada is gonna be on The Office. He looks like Jim's uglier brother (sorry Rich). And he's going to be part of a "surprise twist!" Ooh.
