Mad Men Season 5 Getting Closer to Reality


Recommended Posts

Mad Men season 5 is late. The show will likely not debut this summer, as it has in the past, and it?s because there has been a ton of back and forth between Matt Weiner, creator of the show, and Lionsgate TV and AMC, and the inability of all parties to come to terms has kept the network from greenlighting a fifth season of the amazing show.

But there?s good news! According to Deadline the negotiations have slowly begun to yield results, and it?s possible that everybody will be on the same page in the next few weeks. Again, that would mean that the show will start much later than usual ? could it even be held until 2012? ? but at least we?d get the next season.

AMC has given a greenlight to a fifth season of the hit show Mad Men and is pushing for a debut in March of 2012. Fans will have to wait 17 months from the series' fourth season finale. The show was delayed, pushing back the premiere from it's original July premiere date because of protracted negotiations between Mad Men creator/executive producer Matt Weiner and AMC/Lionsgate. Deadline reports that the new March return date is not directly tied to the contract talks. Sources are reporting that Weiner had been actually pushing for a shorter gap between Seasons 4 and 5 and had stated that he could get Season 5 produced and delivered on budget for a 2011 premiere. AMC's argument was that it has now 5 original series to accommodate and its next available slot for Mad Men was in March 2012.
New York ? March 31, 2011 ? AMC and Lionsgate today announced the return of the iconic series "Mad Men" for seasons five and six with series creator Matthew Weiner back on board as showrunner. Concurrently, it was announced that Weiner has signed a new long-term deal with Lionsgate, extending into a possible seventh season. The announcements were made by Charlie Collier, president of AMC, and Kevin Beggs, president of Lionsgate Television Group.

    • Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
