Bryan Cranston is in the middle of what they call “a moment”. He’s the star of a hit show on AMC, nominated for a Golden Globe, just hosted SNL, has a ton of media coverage, and to top it all off… is the star of the new Atom.com series, The Handlers. Cranston stars as Jack Power, a good natured politician running for senate, who’s surrounded himself with a team of crooked consultants.  Bryan spoke with Entertainment Weekly, Monsters & Critics, Collider.com and New York Magazine about the show, but you can see it for yourself below or check out the rest of The Handlers…



New episodes come out on Tuesdays. Check out The Handlers to stay up to date on all their episodes.

If there’s one thing I love, it’s boner jokes mixed with popular technology references. Well the guy who made iFreak (Bryan Tucker) is a captain of the comedy industry! Here’s a picture of him.

shitstorm

Yep, that’s a sign that says “shitstorm!”. If that isn’t reason enough to love him… he also wrote on a few lil’ shows called SNL, Chappelle’s Show, and The Chris Rock Show, no big deal, whatever.

Really though, Bryan Tucker has a pretty awesome track record. Besides doing some of my favorite clips on Atom (The Go Squad- amirite?), his sketch “Racial Draft” was named on of the “50 Greatest Sketches Of All Time”.

We’re pretty stoked to have Bryan as a part of the Atom family.

Sure, it’s kind of boring, and better heads then I can break down what actually happens each season, I just know that it’s crazy slow, kind of boring, and the furniture they use is really expensive now. Also, everyone smokes all the time and boy, everyone was really unhappy in the 60s!

Anyway, love it or hate it, the Mad Men style is unmistakable, and it’s given rise to some great parodies. In honor of the finale of Season 3, here are some of our favorites.

Saturday Night Live

Jon Hamm‘s hosting gig on SNL culminated in this surprisingly cameo laden parody. And it managed to pack in some good laughs while throwing lots of winks at the core Mad Men fan base.

Milk Men

The gang at Sidecar Comedy made this just for us to help celebrate the end of the third season, a Mad Men filtered look at the slightly less glamourous world of milk delivery.

Milk Men – A Mad Men Parody

Mad Libs Men

CollegeHumor(dotcom!) came through with a typically witty, nostalgic twist.

Mad Men in 60 Seconds

Actually, the title of the LandlineTV version is fairly descriptive.

Mad Men in 60 Seconds

MA Men

AAAAAAND lastly, Funny Or Die gets a New Kid On The Block (and some comedy luminaries) to put a strong Boston twist on the proceedings.

So that’s what we got, gang. Pretty great, right? Did we miss any? We did? Well send us a link in comments!

While you get used to watching them this fall on the Small Screen (TV) and before they hop over to the Silver Screen (a movie theater or an illegal download), remember, we had Jenny back in the day on the Computer Screen (computer screen). Check her out in a classic episode of Honesty (which also features Atom stalwart Pete Holmes).
