Late News: E!'s Kardashian Wedding Trumps Mad Men Breakups
• Keeping Up With the Kardashians: E!'s wedding special for Lamar Odom and Khloé Kardashian beat AMC's Mad Men season finale by about a million viewers. Pssst...Mad Men fans: Do we think January Jones is done with the show now that Betty and Don (Jon Hamm) are getting divorced? And who else nearly fell off their couch in happiness when Joan (Christina Hendricks) came back?
• We Heart Holly: Our favorite Girl Next Door, Holly Madison, is going to star in another reality show for E! Whoo-hoo!
• Ward Off the Chill: Miscellaneous winter TV launch dates we nailed down today include CW's lovely Life UneXpected (or LUX for short), which is scheduled to premiere Mon., Jan. 18 in the Gossip Girl slot. (Don't worry, Upper East Siders, it's just temporary. Gossip Girl will be back soon enough.) Also, 24 and Human Target are premiering on Fox on Sun., Jan. 17.
• Visit the Pacific: Even though it wouldn't usually be in our wheelhouse, we're recommending this production featurette for HBO's upcoming The Pacific miniseries on honor of Wednesday's Veteran's Day holiday here in the States. (Plus, the kid from Jurassic Park and The Cure is back to acting. Whoo!)
Note: Just FYI, the Spoiler Chat is going up a little later than usual tonight to protect you from Gossip Girl threesome-related spoilers until you've seen the ep!

AMC Renews Mad Men for Season Four
Whoo-hoo! There will be more Mad Men, which means we might get to see Don Draper's life all the way to...1965?
AMC has renewed Mad Men for a fourth season. No deets were released about how much more we'll get or when it will air, but 13 episodes in the late summer of 2010 is probably a good guess.
The Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning series is set in a Madison Avenue advertising firm and tracks the rise (and fall?) of the American empire in the 20th century through the personal and professional life of "mad man" Don Draper.
But what about this season, set in 1963 and running up (seemingly) to the November assassination of President John F. Kennedy?

Mad Men's January Jones Says Betty Draper's Not Gonna Take It Anymore

Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss and SNL's Fred Armisen Engaged
Well, that was fast.
Less than a week after word got out that Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss was dating Saturday Night Live's Fred Armisen, the 26-year-old actress reveals that the two just got engaged.
“It happened just a few days ago," Moss just told usaweekend.com. “It’s private, so I don’t want to share the details of how it happened, but I will say it was perfect.”
Moss and Armisen were spotted recently together at the Vanity Fair party for Mad Men, and also at her Broadway production, Speed-the-Plow. (Yes, that Speed-the-Plow. The one with Jeremy Piven William H. Macy.)
Moss' rep did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Nice to see she has better luck in love that her Mad alter ego, Peggy, right? Moss is also nominated this Sunday for a Screen Actors Guild Award.
What do you think of this coupling? Post below...
