Oh lucky day. In anticipation of Mad Men’s premier on July 25th, Flavorpill has drawn our attention to this gem of a video, mashing together most of the show’s ingenious pick up lines (we say most, because all could never fit into one clip). Is it hilariously hokey, in a 1960s kind of way? Certainly. Could it be more politically incorrect? No way. Shockingly, Don is nearly left out of the study altogether, though we do get to see a lot of Ken Cosgrove and Roger Sterling. And if you’re like us, and have watched the show from the beginning, it’s nice to get a little refresher on Mad Men’s romantic history.

There is now an official reason to be excited for fall. HBO’s upcoming epic series, Boardwalk Empire, has just debuted another, extended preview of the show, which ups the stakes even higher. Taking place in 1920s Atlantic City, the show looks something like an early 20th century take on The Sopranos. There’s girls, booze and a whole lot of organized crime—enough to keep the entire New Jersey resort town in its grips. Steve Buscemi stars as the man in charge of it all, while roles for Omar from The Wire (Michael K. Williams), Michael Pitt and tremendous character actor Michael Shannon look promising. Check out the trailer after the jump.

Television stars galore turned out for Think PR’s Upfronts stylist studio at the Empire Hotel. From reality judges (Nigel Barker) to sing and dance phenomena (Heather Morris from Glee—yes, the ditzy cheerleader) to stars of shows with too many Emmys to count (Katrina Bowden of 30 Rock), it was a full-on fashion fest for stars of the small screen with beauty and clothing brands like Desert Essence, Sequoia, Fresh Jive and What Goes Around Comes Around.
