We wanted to wait until around this point in August before we starting to really get our Emmy preview coverage at CarterMatt going again. Why? It just felt far too early to really be discussing it in late July, and there are only so many nominees. From here on out, though, we’re going to be […]
Twenty or thirty years ago it a lot was easier to pinpoint specific Emmy nominees across television that it is today, because now we have hundreds of programs with possible candidates and so many different types of genres. We’re giving today our personal choices for Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, and just from our list […]
Now that the first part of the TV awards season in the Critics’ Choice TV Awards is officially wrapped up, today we’re moving on the next part in the 2015 TCA Awards. The nominations were announced today for the event, which will happen come August 8 as a part of the TCA Summer Press Tour. […]
We’re back today with our second edition of our 2015 Emmy Spotlight series, where we pick and choose among a very crowded field who are the most deserving nominees in a given category. The Emmys will be announced very early in the morning (especially on the West Coast) come July 16, and the ceremony will […]
The nominations for the 2015 Primetime Emmy Awards are not going to be revealed until July 16 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time. However, that’s not going to stop us this month from embarking on what is a long-standing tradition of naming our own nominees! These choices were picked by the CarterMatt team, and in addition […]

We honestly did not think that we would be continuing to write about the “Mad Men” series finale at this point in the week, but we also did not expect to see show creator Matthew Weiner speaking out about it so soon. Many times the common move for showrunners after their finales is to stay […]
Did Don Draper have an epiphany during the closing seconds of the “Mad Men” series finale, or was it a moment meant to be something else? The thing about the conclusion of the show is that there was at least something open to interpretation. Maybe you saw Don’s smile and the playing of the Coca-Cola […]
While “Mad Men” may have been one of the greatest television series in history, it would be a lie to say that it was a ratings monster the entire way. It was always a small hit by AMC standards, supported mostly by the upscale viewership it held and the critical acclaim. Had it not had […]
“Mad Men” is sadly over following a tremendous run on television!
