We'll have to wait a little longer this summer for the return of "Mad Men."

AMC has set an August start for the Emmy-winning drama's third season. Show's previous two seasons have bowed in mid-July. AMC has not specified the preem date.

Production on the Lionsgate TV drama, created and exec produced by Matthew Weiner, begins today in L.A. There's no word yet on the time frame for season three of the period drama, which ended its sophomore season in the midst of the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962.
