Handsome Mad Men actor Jon Hamm recently sat down with The Advocate's Brandon Voss for a little homo heart-to-heart.

In addition to discussing the requisite "man crushes" - MM writer Matt Weiner and costar John Slattery - Hamm talks advertising, his fictional character Don's forte:

BV: How would you create a Mad Men ad campaign geared specifically to the gay community?

JH: Well, it’s a very high-drama show, and it’s very stylish. Three things that the gay community responds to are attitude, sexiness, and style. We’re a prime property for a big gay following—I love it.

BV: We’re an easy sell, Jon — just show us some skin.

JH: [Laughs] I don’t know about that. I don’t know if you want me anywhere near any kind of skin thing — that’s a nightmare.

Mr. Hamm, we respectfully disagree…

Good news for all you The L-Word lovers!

Showtime announced yesterday that they're planning on creating a spin-off of the lesbian sudster. It's going to be called The V-Word. Psych. We don't know what it's call. Here is what we do know:

Showtime entertainment president Robert Greenblatt just announced a spin-off plan for The L-Word at press tour.

“We’re in the process of working on an The L-Word spin-off,” he says. “I’m not going to give you too many details. We’re shooting it after The L-Word."

The spin-off will star one of the actors from The L-Word, which is entering its sixth and final season and will return in January. Greenblatt [say] didn’t which The L-Word actor will star ("I don't want to be too coy, but I can't say") and added that the chosen actor is not yet aware they will star in the spin-off.

The show will be created by The L-Word showrunner Ilene Chaiken, who will take a storyline from the original show’s final season and extend it into Internet-only content. If Showtime moves forward with the as-yet-untitled spin-off, the online storyline will segue into the new series.

Greenblatt also announced that the cable station's picked up two more seasons of Weeds, which pleases us to no end.

Any Weeds watchers out there? What's up with this gangster-in-the-ground story?

Molly Shannon and Selma Blair are reprising the roles of Kath & Kim, Australia's top sitcom that's NBC imported to, once again, attempt to save its reputation as must-see comedy TV. But based on the American version's early showing, even the Aussies are nervous the show is gonna bomb. Are we looking at the next round of Coupling, the British sitcom NBC tried, and failed, to get off the ground in the U.S.? Or might Shannon and Blair actually have the potential to carry this witty comedy — with a huge gay followed — through to at least a full season before Jeff Zucker yanks it?

Rue McClanahan's still going strong. The seventy-two year old has been working steadily since 1970, when she made a brief appearance on the soap opera Another World, then it was on to Mama's Family and Maude and, of course, The Golden Girls.

Now, seventy-two years young, McClanahan's lending her talents to the Logo-produced dysfunctional family miniseries Sordid Lives, based on Del Shores' novel of the same name. Ahead of the show's July 23rd debut, McClanahan sat down with The New York Blade and proved she's just as opinionated as ever:

Today, she can’t say enough about Barack Obama.

“This is the damnedest election I’ve ever lived through and Obama is the most amazing candidate I’ve ever bumped into,” McClanahan said. “The man has unshakable integrity. He’s the nearest thing to Lincoln we’ve seen.”

One comparison you won’t find McClanahan endorsing is The Golden Girls being hailed as the original Sex and the City.

“‘The Golden Girls’ has infinitely more substance,” McClanahan says. “I never enjoyed the characters on Sex and the City, and I could never watch it for more than a few minutes.”

Me-ow!

Meanwhile, we've seen the first two episodes of Sordid Lives and it's definitely worth a watch, even if just for McClanahan. There's a promo after that there jump…
