Beginning April 5, AMC will air the final episodes of Mad Men, bringing to an end one of the most acclaimed and buzzed about TV dramas in recent memory.
There's an irony to the fact that a show that takes place in the 1960s has managed to so thoroughly capture the imaginations of 21st viewers, but the most fans will tell you that the characters' recklessly old school ways are a major part of Mad Men's appeal.
Where else, on the modern television landscape, will you find successful professionals drinking in the middle of a weekday? Or anyone other than a European villain sucking down cigarettes without a passing thought for emphysema?
Yes, the men and women of Sterling Cooper and Partners have never set foot on a treadmill and uttering the phrase "gluten-free" in their presence might get you branded a communist.
But that's not to say they haven't changed with the times. Don and his cronies might still prefer liquor to LSD, but that hasn't stopped them from making allowances for the growing influence of the '60s counterculture as the series progressed.
Hey, altered consciousness is altered consciousness, right?
So exactly how much bad behavior did Draper and company get up to over the past 6-and-a-half seasons? Well, the folks over at AMC tallied things up, and some of the numbers might surprise you:
14 punches and 4 slaps were doled out. (Who knew the show was so violent?)
Don ran through 8 different secretaries. (RIP, Ida Blankenship)
We also saw Dick Whitman bed 18 different mistresses, though AMC is quick to point out that there's no telling how many ladies succumbed to the Draper charm off-camera.
A surprising joints were smoked throughout the series, and finally, what you really want to know:
The cast smoked a combined 942 cigarettes and polished off 369 drinks.
There, now don't you feel better about your own vices? We can't wait to see our favorite self-destructive ad men (and women) add to those numbers in the remaining final episodes.
Of course, if you're still not up to date on the goings-on at SC&P, you can always watch Mad Men online at TV Fanatic. And don't forget to stumble down memory lane with our list of the most memorable Mad Men moments:
Don broke down and showed his human side after learning about the death of a friend. We're sure the final season will hold many more emotional moments for Don.
When he's not making tabloid headlines, hit R&B songs or babies inside Nia Guzman, Chris Brown apparently spends his free time trolling Instagram.
We've seen this before with him liking Rihanna pics or posing with Kylie and Kendall Jenner just to piss off Karrueche Tran. What's he up to this time, though?
It also involves Karrueche, but he's taking his creeping to new depths ...
Leaving weird, awkward comments on Karrueche's Instagram page like it's his job since they broke up, Chris previously criticized Karrueche for hoeing.
You know, because he felt the sexy modeling photos she posted after learning he impregnated a woman 18 months ago were unbecoming of a lady.
Tran did not take her former lover's advice to heart, and has continued to post one smoldering photo after another on the social media sit ever since.
Which brings us today to Chris' latest creeping, and it was extra creepy indeed. The 25-year-old commented on one of her photos simply, "Keep killing it kiddo."
Yup, "kiddo." You may cringe on cue.
Apparently, Chris being the father of Nia Guzman's kid - a kid he neglected to tell his girlfriend about until the Internet did it for him - is feeling paternal.
Just keep killing it, he tells a grown woman who stuck by him through countless legal and personal troubles, in what we imagine is a condescending tone.
If there's any kiddo here, in terms of maturity, it would be Christopher Brown, who exhibits the emotional and cognitive development of an eight-year-old.
That age, perhaps not coincidentally, is when Breezy claims to have lost his virginity and embarked on the journey toward becoming a beast at sex.
Chris Brown is many things - a woman beater, an ex-con, an egomaniac - we hear he even finds time to perform music now and then.
But the one thing you'll never hear anyone say about Chris Brown (aside from, "What a nice guy!") is that he's shy.
So why, oh why did Breezy lock his Instagram page today?
Granted, it's been a tumultuous week for the singer/felon, what with the revelation that Chris is a father, having knocked up side-piece Nia Guzman while still dating Karrueche Tran.
There was some predictable fallout after the news broke, such as Karrueche dumping Chris like the sack of human garbage that he is, but after that, things got weird.
For starters, Chris gave a shout-out to Karrueche on Instagram. After that, he went and made his page private.
That might not sound so strange, but you've gotta remember that Chris relies on attention the way that most mammals need oxygen.
If we had to guess, we would say that Chris took a ton of abuse from Karrueche fans after he tried to re-open the lines of communication.
After all, K-Tran did just go all T-Swift, promising that she would NEVER get back together with Brown. He might have picked a bad time to try and make nice.
Kendrick Lamar, 27, confirmed today in an interview on Power 105.1’s Breakfast Club that he is marrying his high school sweetheart, Whitney Alford.
While on the show promoting his new album To Pimp a Butterfly, he addressed the rumors of his upcoming wedding.
Expressing his commitment to Alford, he stated, “Yeah, yeah, definitely... I'm loyal to the soil.”
He continued, "At the end of the day, you want to always, always have real people around you, period. Whether it's male or female, and everybody that's been around me, they've been around since day one... I always show respect when respect has been given, and people that have been by your side, you're supposed to honor that."
Lamar is known for maintaining a private life out of the spotlight. So the announcement of this news can only indicate that Lamar and Alford are serious.
In fact, the couple started dating 10 years ago while in high school.
Kendrick’s affection for his bride-to-be was sentimental and endearing. He said, "I wouldn't even call her my girl. That’s my best friend. I don't even like the term that society has put in the world as far as being a companion — she's somebody I can tell my fears to."
In the fantasy world of stardom, where celebrity romance stays within celebrity circles, we love this fairytale story of a regular girl marrying her superstar man.
Let's just hope Whitney shows him more love than Azealia Banks.
"Excuse me!" she continues, now addressing the reality star herself. "Every single photo shoot you go to, you don't got clothes on!"
It's sad, but mostly true.
And this is the really sad thing: someday, North West will be the one to run a simple Google search and come to this same realization about her mother.
We shudder to think of the therapy bills that will result from that discovery.
She said she loves me and she loves my butt and how she wants to be my lesbian lover. I mean, what do you say to that other than 'No thanks?' Actually, maybe I would do it for a million bucks.
I mean, I love the Bush and the Tush. Seriously, the Bush and the Tush, that was, like, iconic for me, I loved them. You can't do much better than that.
All the haters are just jealous, so they're trying to bring me down. I'm young, handsome, successful, wealthy. You could say I'm a role model – I’m the American dream!
I was waiting for this amazing experience where I could just do whatever I want, eat whatever I want, feel great... and it just hasn’t been that way.
While the world continues to make predictions on the Kate Middleton baby name, Page Six has confirmed that Sam Worthington and his wife, Laura Bingle, have named their newborn son...
... wait. Are you sitting down for this?
Okay then: the Australian actor has named his son Rocket Zot. We're serious.
Insiders report that “Zot” was the nickname of Sam’s father, Ronald Worthington; while a "Rocket" is what one uses to blast off into space.
It is also the name of the professional basketball team in Houston.
How does it compare to the name of Chris Brown's son? We'll let readers debate that tough question.
The notoriously private Worthington and 27-year-old blonde were reported to have been married in the Maldives around New Year’s Eve; they have been dating since September 2013.
Rocket surely deserves a place on the following list, doesn't it? No offense to what we're sure is a very cute young man.
North West. The spawn of Kimye being named after a direction may be the dumbest thing in human history. At the same time, if she doesn't grow up to have a signature fragrance called North by North West, this is not a planet we wanna be living on.
Kourtney Kardashiand and Scott Disick went relatively conventional with their first two children Mason and Penelope. For the third, however, they opted for a name fit for a Lord: REIGN Aston Disick.
Yes, Miley's real name is Destiny ... which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but Billy Ray and Tish probably guaranteed she'd become a stripper someday with that moniker.
Ironically, Apple is both the name of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's daughter and likely the name of a food item forbidden in some rich crazy-person diet she probably follows.
Nicolas Cage named one of his kids Kal-El, a fact not related to him being wasted out of his mind in this mug shot ... although that could explain a lot of things.
Not only did she torture us with The Reader, Kate Winslet is making her newborn's life terrible with Bear as his name. Alicia Silverstone chose this name too. And she chews up Bear's food for him, which is also interesting.
Blanket Jackson is not actually the name of the youngest child of Michael Jackson. It's Prince Michael Jackson II ... not to be confused with Prince Michael Jackson I (also pictured). As for his nickname, he was wearing a Blanket while MJ dangled him over a balcony. Good times.
Suri Cruise, the child of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, is a bona fide cutie. Who will have to spell and explain her name approximately 10 times per day as an adult.
Jessica Simpson named her little daughter Maxwell. Perhaps she is trying to overcompensate for giving her an old man's name by putting her in this bikini.
Banjo, the son of Rachel Griffiths and Andrew Taylor, is not only named after a musical instrument, but probably the most absurd one to name a kid after you could think of. With the possible exception of oboe.
Most of the nay-saying was based on the fact that Kaley and Ryan only dated for a few months before they got hitched, but there were other reasons to be suspicious, as well.
Sure, the couple seems happy in public, but it's not surprising that some fans and tabloids were beginning to wonder if there might not be some trouble in paradise. Fortunately, Kaley put those worries to rest with her latest Instagram post:
Kaley posted the above pic to Instagram today, along with a caption reading, "We are totally getting divorced, can't you tell??"
We're gonna go ahead and assume that she's being sarcastic.
Between the divorce rumors and the rumblings about Kaley getting a nose job, Mrs. Cuoco-Sweeting has been the topic of a surprising number of rumors lately.
Fortunately, she's skilled at putting these things to bed. Further proof that she'll be a great mom someday!
Rob Kardashian is the black sheep of his family, not because he's already past prime sex tape making-age and he failed to capitalize on the opportunity, but because he's the only one who dares to diss the cash/sacred cow that is Kim.
Yes, her sisters give her the occasional hard time, and yes, we just referred to her as a cow, but that's all in good fun.
When Rob goes hard on his mega-famous big sis, he means it. The most recent example, of course, is Rob's Instagram post comparing Kim to "the b-tch from Gone Girl."
If you haven't seen Gone Girl, believe us when we say that that is not a flattering comparison.
In fact, Rob could've taken any female co-star from any other Ben Affleck movie and it wouldn't have been as offensive. (Perhaps he could've gone with J-Lo in Gigli, because of the famous butts, and all.)
Anyway, the point is, it wasn't good and, the post made the long-standing feud between Rob and Kim worse than ever.
At first, it looked like neither side would budge, but just moments ago, in a historic surrender on par with General Lee at Appomattox Court House, Rob deleted not only the Amazing Amy photo, but all of the posts on his Instagram page.
So what made him finally give in to his family's demands? Well, it seems Rob may have been double-crossed:
"Khloe and Kourtney, with the help of Scott, of course, were ultimately the ones who were able to make him take it down," a source tells Radar Online.
It's a surprising development, as up until today, Scott had supported Rob in his war against the rest of the Kardashians.
Looks like the only thing Lord Disick won't turn his back on is a bottle of booze.
Oh, well. At least the war is over for now. Besides, the comparison between Kim and the manipulative, narcissistic villain from Gone Girl doesn't even make any sense. Kim doesn't have blonde hair anymore.
Linsey "Jade" Berardi, a reality star best known for appear on Season 12 of Bad Girls Club, was found dead today, Oxygen has confirmed.
She was 22 years old.
“We are deeply saddened by the loss of Linsey 'Jade' Berardi,’” the network said in a statement, adding that the circumstances of her passing are unknown. “Our deepest sympathy and heartfelt thoughts go out to her family, friends and fans."
Berardi’s relatives have asked for any donations to be sent to animal shelters, as Linsey was a passionate animal lover and advocate.
Berardi (dubbed the “Brooklyn Beat”) departed the Bad Girls Club mansion after the second episode, but her former co-stars still posted messages of mourning online today.
"I pray that the news is not true but if it is I send my condolences to Lindsey’s family and friends #BGC12,” Tweeted Loren “Lo” London on Twitter, while Jada Cacchilli added:
"However she was taken, I pray it was a peaceful depart. We may not have been friends BUT we shared an experience most will never have or truly understand…"
ESPN's Stuart Scott (1965-2015) will forever be missed. The beloved anchor and personality passed away after a long battle with cancer in January at the age of 49.
Charmayne Maxwell was a Grammy-nominated singer who tragically died at the age of 46. According to report, she passed away from wounds suffered after accidently cutting herself at home.
A man appeared this week on Ellen and danced on a treadmill to Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson's hit "Uptown Funk." Yes, a freaking treadmill!
The actor-choreographer first uploaded a video to his Facebook account in March. The dancing looks VERY dangerous. One wrong move and something bad could happen, so don't try this at home, kids.
Ellen DeGeneres was understandably very intrigued by the dancer and that's why he got invited on her show. She chatted to him about his skills and he revealed that he never actually meant to make the video public. (Yeah, we believe you).
The clip has been viewed over 50 million times, a number a chart-topping artist would kill to achieve on a single video. The amount of views are THAT good.
"I just made the video for my friends and family to see on Facebook. I clicked the private thing," the L.A. resident explained to DeGeneres. "Well, I thought I did."
The talk show hot most recently spoke to Kelly Clarkson and spoke about her weight criticism.
Ellen also revealed that she gave some of his moves a go and how she fared.
"I have tried to do one or two of those moves," DeGeneres teased. "And it's not as easy as you think it is."
We can't think of anyone that could come close to pulling off those moves! Not even you, Rebel Wilson...
Ellen DeGeneres gets generous and gives cash and a car to two coworkers who have fallen on hard times. We dare you not to cry while watching this video.
She impressed us all when she bought a meal for two furloughed officers, now Ellen is back with her favorite waitress for a surprise that will change her life forever.
Richie Sambora's breakup with Denise Richards was nowhere near as bitter as this!
After reports that Sambora threatened to kill ex-girlfriend Nikki Lund, it as been reported conversely that these claims are false, but just who is telling the truth?
The Bon Jovi rocker is currently sunning it up in Bora Bora with ex-wife Heather Locklear and their daughter, but it sounds like he is going to be coming back to a nightmare since it has been revealed that he is a "person of interest" in police enquiries.
"They are in the midst of unraveling their fashion business Nikki Rich," a source told Daily Mail Online. "Things have become very bitter in recent weeks."
"The two had a war of words after Lund debuted her first solo line. He said words to the effect that he was going to dig a hole in the desert and bury her."
Lund held off going to the cops because she thought that the "situation would resolve itself." Because that always happens, right?
Representatives for Sambora, the guitarist for the iconic band who famously quit Bon Jovi in 2013 due to personal issues, have denied the allegations.
"This is a cluster of fabricated lies in retaliation for Mr Sambora's decision to cease further funding of the unprofitable partnership, plain and simple," said the rep.
Could Lund really be doing this because his decision to stop funding the company? Anything is possible.
Who do you believe in this whole mess, Sambora or Lund? Hit the comments with your thoughts.

Furious 7 was Paul Walker's final film, and with the premiere of his last ride, we can finally answer the question fans have wondered for almost 18 months:
What happens to his character, Brian O'Conner?
Obviously, the mother of all Furious 7 spoilers awaits, so turn back now if you want to see the movie first. We can tell Walker fans they won't be let down ...
When Paul Walker tragically died in a car crash in late November 2013 during a break from filming, it wasn't clear if Furious 7 would even be finished.
The producers eventually decided to go ahead and re-write it, but the question of how to end things for Walker's Brian O’Conner was far from simple.
Perhaps Brian, an undercover officer who went on to become a part of this "family" of street racers, would retire, riding off (literally) into the sunset.
Plausible, albeit somewhat unlikely knowing Brian. Or perhaps he could die in a heroic way, giving up his life for those he cared about most in the world.
The problem with that, of course, is that it would be like watching art imitate life, reliving Walker's tragic demise in a way that might polarize audiences.
So what direction did the movie decide on?!
With the aid of body doubles and CGI, Brian cheats death as he always have in Furious 7, and the ending may have a few grown men hiding tears.
Seriously. The reason Furious 7 reviews have been so positive is that for all its over-the-top action, it's got real heart, and boy, it wears it with pride.
Brian retires, and while he doesn't say as much, the whole crew looks on as he plays with his son and Dom (Vin Diesel) says “things will be different” now.
The film then basically acknowledges that Walker has died, a risky move blending fiction with reality, but providing the chance for a moving tribute.
After his pensive reflection following the gripping final action sequences, Dom gets up to leave without saying goodbye, only to have Brian chase him down.
Paying homage to 2001's The Fast and the Furious, the duo revs up for a race, and we are treated to a montage of Walker from all the past Fast films.
By the time that's over, it's suddenly really dusty in theaters as we watch both Brian and Dom, and "brothers" Paul Walker and Vin Diesel say goodbye.
Paul Walker and his daughter Meadow, when she was a baby. She shared this photo on what would have been his 41st birthday. He tragically died in a car crash in 2013. R.I.P.
"I will never ever not love Lamar," Khloe confessed to E! News this week. "I was so obsessed with him in a healthy way. He was my husband, and I still wish he was, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that."
Lamar ruined his relationship a couple years ago by becoming hooked on drugs and then cheating on his wife.
He's now out of the NBA and has been out of the spotlight for a very long time.
"There's nothing I can do," Khloe said about the state of her husband/marriage. "Lamar has to do things in order to change in that aspect, but yeah, if I had my way I'd be married to Lamar in two seconds."
"I love French. He's an awesome guy," she said. "We are on-again, off-again...but I don't want to be too labeled to anyone right now. I'm still figuring out a lot of emotions with me."
Once considered a top-tier candidate for U.S. President, former Senator John Edwards saw his career unravel after an affair, and love child, with Rielle Hunter.
Appearing on The Mike Gallagher Show Friday, the Fox News anchor started to joke about the host’s weight when Gallagher cut him off.
"Listen, don't fat shame me. You do a lot of fat shaming," Gallagher replied. "That's the new phrase now, 'fat shaming.' Have you seen Kelly Clarkson? You know the singer, Kelly Clarkson?
"Holy cow, did she blow up."
Wallace initially refused to engage in such commentary, but then allowed himself to make a tasteless joke in response.
"Kelly Clarkson's got a lovely voice,” Wallace noted. “She could stay off the deep dish pizza for a little while."
The original American Idol's weight gain has been an unfortunate topic in the news lately.
Some British moron named Katie Hopkins came right out and called Clarkson fat a few weeks ago, prompting an amazing response in which Kelly shrugged and replied:
"What hurts my feelings for people is that I'll have a meet-and-greet after the show and a girl who's like bigger than me will be in the meet-and-greet and be like, 'Wow, if they think you’re big I must be so fat to them.'
"And it's like, you're just who you are."
A colleague of Wallace’s at Fox News colleague, meanwhile, thinks he ought to issue a mea culpa.
"This 'guy snickering' about her weight is obnoxious. He should apologize," Greta Van Susteren blogged soon after Wallace's comments went public.
The backlash against Melissa McCarthy's Elle cover was FIERCE with critics blaming the magazine for trying to hide Melissa's curves. Melissa responded "Hey, I have curves. I love that jacket. STFU." or something like that.
Mad Men's beautiful Christina Hendricks was once asked if she enjoyed being a role model for "full figured" women. "Are you calling me fat?" she replied, before her agent could end the interview.

Helen Mirren has still got it! At least according to they eyes of Ryan Reynolds.
In the below photo, you can see Ryan smiling into Mirren's eyes as they promote their new movie Woman In Gold, but what does his wife think of all of this?
Well, Blake Lively thinks it's rather funny and shared the image on Instagram ...
The Age of Adaline star joked as she captioned the image on the website:
"Should I be concerned that my husband's never looked at me this way? #WhereAreThoseEyesWanderingReynolds #HelenMirrenIStheSexiestWomanAlive #WomanInGold"
Reynolds recently complimented Mirren in the best possible way.
"To spend time with her anywhere, let alone on a film set, is a ball," he told Vulture.
"She's just hysterical, and has no filter in the best possible way. She's as humble as you'd hope someone in her position could possibly be, and she's one of those magnetic personalities."
He added, "Everybody who meets with her flirts with her. I don't care who you are - guy, girl, fat, skinny, tall, short, gay, straight - everybody flirts with Helen Mirren."
We'd say Blake handled this quite well and appear to be jealous, right? What would Blair Waldorf and her other Gossip Girl cast members say about this?
Blake Lively, or someone pretending to be Blake Lively, poses with an iPhone and looks downright sultry. Is this one of the purported racy pics of her that leaked?
Man, Gossip Girl stars Blake Lively and Leighton Meester make you wanna break the law. Or read Rolling Stone. Just kidding - they're both 21, and who reads Rolling Stone anymore?
Bethenny Frankel might be returning to The Real Housewives Of New York City in the near future, but she's already got a head start on the drama.
The 44-year-old who is still battling former husband Jason Hoppy in court, and recently broke up with Michael Cerussi, has been spotted with a new man.
Bethenny shot to fame on The Real Housewives Of New York City and even managed to get her own spin-off, then her own talk show titled Bethenny.
That endeavor started strong, but tailed off in the ratings before being canceled, reportedly leaving her desperate for money and eyeing a Bravo comeback.
Regardless of her reasons for returning, we're sure Frankel will instantly inject some life back into the show, which has been dormant in the ratings itself.
What do you think about all of this? Who could this mystery man be? Are you excited to see Frankel on your TV screen again on a weekly basis?
Bethenny Frankel poses here at Elton John AIDS Foundation's 13th Annual An Enduring Vision Benefit. She's looking pretty great on the red carpet, isn't she?
Looking good, Bethenny Frankel! The reality star strikes a pretty pose on the red carpet of Elton John AIDS Foundation's 13th Annual An Enduring Vision Benefit.
Could Beyonce singing to unreleased Jay Z music have hit a nerve? The super star has only gone and dropped a brand new song, which is accompanied by a video.
The occasion for this new song? To pledge her love to her man of course!
The singer isn't opposed shocking her fans. She did nearly break iTunes with her surprise album last year, and the track really is a powerful one.
It's up there with some of her best, but there's a catch. A major one.
"Die With You" is being exclusively released through Jay Z's new and controversial streaming service, Tidal. Should've seen that one coming, right?
We don't doubt that fans will be rushing to get their hands on it, but this really feels like a publicity stunt to benefit Tidal, rather than Queen Bey herself.
The mogul's new streaming service hasn't received the best reaction from the public so far and Madonna even found herself defending it last week.
Either way, Tidal subscribers have been promised exclusives from here on out; Alicia Keys has already put an exclusive video on streaming site.
Will it work out for the company? What do you think of Beyonce's decision to make this new track a Jay Z Tidal exclusive? Hit the comments to discuss!
On this holiest of holidays, we know many readers are spending time at church and with their families, honoring the miracle of Jesus Christ's resurrection and reflecting on life.
Many are also likely partaking in Easter Egg hunts with the kids, and it is in this spirit that we present the following photo gallery.
For adults only, it gives parents around the world a chance to join in the fun of Easter commercialization... because it features a number of past Playboy bunnies.
Get it?!? Bunnies? On Easter?!?
You may be surprised to learn that certain mainstream stars were willing to pose for the cover of Hugh Hefner's creation, from Mariah Carey to Goldie Hawn to Kim Kardashian.
Okay, fine. You may not be surprised by every ex-centerfold.
But put on some bunny ears now and be taken aback by the big names who have taken it all off.
