Mad Men Takes A Sidetrip to Baltimore

July 28, 2009 at 8:44 AM | by BS | 0 Comments

As anyone who has walked by a New York City bus shelter in the last few days certainly knows, Mad Men returns to AMC for a third season on August 16. But while the omnipresent poster campaign ominously shows Don Draper drowning in his own office, producers have been extremely tightlipped about what’s going down on the show this season.

We did get this one travel-y tidbit from Baltimore Sun TV critic David Zurawik, who tells us that in the season opener, Draper will actually leave New York to spend some time in Baltimore.

Draper jolts down to B-More to visit his clients at the London Fog factory, reportedly spending the night at the Hotel Belvedere—you can check out this historic Beaux Arts building, although it’s been converted to condos—and of course grabbing dinner at the legendary Haussner’s Restaurant—another one that’s sadly, recently gone—although the space is currently for sale. Any fans want to snatch it up and open a Mad Men-themed restaurant? We'd be more than happy to have a highball there.

AMC’s Emmy-winning drama Mad Men is returning for a third season on August 16, after the show’s first two seasons drew lots of acclaim but not nearly as many viewers. But it looks like plenty of viewers have been catching up on the DVDs during the show’s hiatus, because Mad Men is starting to cross that threshold from just another cable show everyone says you should be watching to a genuine cultural zeitgest.

Case-in-point: hip Boston watering hole Noir Bar will be greeting the new season with a Mad Men series premier party.
