Facts ain't what they used to be.

Sybarite		2012-03-26 09:05:27 AM

Where are you getting Canada?

FreakinB		2012-03-26 09:51:26 AM

P.J. Clarke's is good. Crowded though. I'm also an enormous fan of Keen's.

Sybarite: Where are you getting Canada?

Of course, the series is filmed in California

Canada, California, they're the same place practically speaking.

NashMcNash		2012-03-26 10:29:59 AM

Filmed in Ca-whatever.

BalugaJoe		2012-03-26 10:31:10 AM

Ive never watched it.

LarryDan43		2012-03-26 10:33:16 AM

BalugaJoe: Ive never watched it.

I made it through half of season 1.

Sometimes I wonder if the submitter is deliberately wrong, or merely an illiterate f*cking idiot, when I see headlines like this.

Louisiana_Sitar_Club		2012-03-26 10:35:30 AM

I've never seen the show. I've never been to New York. I'm too old and lame to be a "hipster" (however we're defining that this week). Yet somehow I feel this is appropriate:

Subby, I'm sorry you hate Mad Men so much your blind rage made you skim over California to read it as Canada in your rush to hammer out a snarky headline.

Not a Mad Men fan, but it makes me sad to see such fail.

punkhippie		2012-03-26 10:35:45 AM

Yeah, the one lady has big boobs, but it's a boring-ass show.

/boring ass-show

belhade		2012-03-26 10:35:51 AM

Retro-hipster? WTF?

Mrs.Sharpier		2012-03-26 10:37:11 AM

oh shut up

pute kisses like a man		2012-03-26 10:37:45 AM

great show.

I'd rather go on a re-created madmen tour than a real tour of sex and the city or something.

/ or go to baltimore and get the wire tour.

reverend maynard		2012-03-26 10:38:50 AM

Last nights season premiere sucked Fark's signature squirrel nuts.

GoldDude		2012-03-26 10:39:45 AM

Look, we've had some unusually warm weather this winter including decidedly spring- to summer-like weather in March, but that doesn't make Canada equal to California.

pute kisses like a man		2012-03-26 10:39:56 AM

belhade: Retro-hipster? WTF?

there is no such thing. fortunately, hipster is the ubiquitous term for any one in the world who is wearing clothes, and probably for anyone naked too.

/ the only person on earth that cannot be a hipster is your self. the only law of hipster is that you cannot call yourself a hipster... it's like dividing by zero

Mid_mo_mad_man		2012-03-26 10:42:10 AM

Worst show ever

aearra		2012-03-26 10:44:38 AM

That's California NOT Canada. There is a difference. Canada is first world.

ps69		2012-03-26 10:48:34 AM

Keens is a tremendous steakhouse. I will have mutton chop, porterhouse, creamed spinach, has browns and one of their thousands of single malts for my last meal.

Valiente		2012-03-26 10:58:19 AM

I hear the pope's visiting Calida this week, Subtard.

/maps...do you read them?

They're both in Not New York.

Zoo Be Zoo Be Zoo.

toot's is now a duane reade. (there's a good documentary on the place)

PYROY		2012-03-26 11:57:42 AM

Realizing that California was part of Canada in the early 60's, I see what you did there subby.

pxlboy		2012-03-26 01:05:11 PM

This. Their steaks are pretty damn good.

offmymeds		2012-03-26 01:10:54 PM

So is Hollywood in Quebec?

There's a Duane Reade on every block in NYC, though, isn't there?

Dwight_Yeast		2012-03-26 01:22:29 PM

How could you make a list like this and not include the Grill Room of the Four Seasons? It's like the distilled essence of the era.

snake_beater		2012-03-26 02:10:38 PM

offmymeds: So is Hollywood in Quebec?

I thought it was in Vancouver.

Rubix^3		2012-03-26 02:16:27 PM

Great show.

Idiots.

go2pedro		2012-03-26 02:22:37 PM

They've filmed at two of my favorite watering holes here in California. And no, I'm not sharing.

MisterDoctor		2012-03-26 03:33:04 PM

Been hittin' the BC bud a little hard today, Subby?

offmymeds		2012-03-26 04:02:56 PM

snake_beater: offmymeds: So is Hollywood in Quebec?

I thought it was in Vancouver.

That's it. I must have been thinking of Van Nuys.

poot_rootbeer		2012-03-26 05:09:15 PM

serpent_sky: There's a Duane Reade on every block in NYC, though, isn't there?

Except, ironically, between Duane St. and Reade St.

/almost certainly not true.
