The Morning Fix: 'Mad Men' hype hits full speed. Netflix going cable?
21.05.12
The Skinny: My landlord put in very bright lights outside my door and driveway. Now it looks like daylight in the middle of the night. I feel like I live in Alaska. Wednesday's headlines include a look at Hollywood's favorite shoe store, Netflix's plans to go cable and a profile of "Mad Men" creator Matt Weiner just in time for the show's new season.
Daily Dose: Now that Fox has pulled the plug on "Terra Nova," speculation will start on what other big bets for the 2011-12 TV season won't make it to 2013. ABC's "Pan Am" already has pretty much been grounded. Its midseason show "The River" did not open like gangbusters. At CBS, the drama "A Gifted Man" is going to have to beat the odds to return for Year 2. At NBC, the news magazine "Rock Center" is likely to be on the bubble. "Smash" is not a huge hit, but its numbers have picked up in the last two weeks, so don't be surprised if it somehow survives.
