Open Post: Hosted By Jon Hamm And Yes, He's Happy To See You

I'd like to think that as Jon Hamm strolled with Jennifer Westfeldt in NYC yesterday, someone stopped him and thanked him for showing us that God does wonderful, wonderful, wonderful things by not putting any underwear on that morning. Then I'd like to think Jon raised his eyebrow and said that he's wearing two pairs of briefs and one pair of boxers and it still can't hide all the love he's got to give. SWOOOON!

You know, I could sit here and write four haikus, six poems, a 5-part series and an essay on the Hickory Farms basket in Jon Hamm's pants, but instead I'll just let you grab the Crisco, sit back and enjoy the Hamm Log.* And these pictures sent from the heavens need a theme song. Jon Hamm putting the HAMM (and a whole lot more) in Sledgehammer.

Oh and if you've ever wanted to know what it feels like to get teabagged by Don Draper, just put your forehead to the screen right before you click on this picture. Warning: You might get pregnant in the forehead.

* Thanks to Vanessa for giving me the phrase "Hamm Log."

Don't get me started on Black Swan! I love Aronofsky's movies, but BS was the most overrated piece of shit ever, and Portman DID NOT deserve that Oscar!

I loved Roger and Megan's mom starting the affair. Normally I don't root for infidelity, but I make an exception for Don and Roger. I loathe Pete, too, but Vincent Kornheiser does such a great job with that character. He's loathsome, but can turn sympathetic, like when he was with Beth in the hospital in the finale.

The funny thing about that show is that everyone is alternately repellent and sympathetic. Each character just strikes a different balance between the two extremes. Boardwalk Empire is similar in that way. No one is wholly good or bad. Even Peggy, who Don said in one of the first episodes, "I try not to look directly at her. I'm afraid her earnestness might blind me," gives out hand jobs to random dudes with weed in the movie theater!

@EC I agree. Even my brothers (who will sit through any movie, even the shitfest known as Black Swan) remarked on his shitty acting!!! They NEVER remark on anyone's acting abilities. LOL

Louise -- oh, I can't stand Pete; I'd love to see him joing a S&M club and someone royally kicks his ass in on a regular basis and then someone takes it too far -- he's such a repellant character. He reminds me of all the up & coming lawyers I worked for. I'd drop acid with Roger any old time; he's so damn hot. And I cannot wait for the day Megan leaves the show, her & her ugly face & beaver teeth. I wonder if we will ever see Joan & Don hook up, though; I'd been hearing rumors they would hook up. And we're sure to see more of Sally; she's sure to have a buttload of problems with her fucked-up problems and having seen her step-grandmother deep-throating Roger.

louise_brooks's picture

Twat Muffin- I can't wait for next season. This past season seemed like a transition season- Joan's divorce, Roger's divorce and new affinity for LSD, Megan and Don playing happy family, fat Betty....etc. I think (hope) next season will be more action. And more Pete getting his ass kicked, because that cannot happen enough as far as I am concerned.

You know who else has done some pretty good straight to vid movies? Cuba Gooding Jr. I saw him in a movie where he was an operative who finds out his company has poisoned him and he goes bad guy on them. I was impressed with his being a bad guy. I just saw One in the Chamber with him and Dolph Lundgren, a good shoot em up.

Redskins just let a punt get blocked, Saints score with 45 secs. left in the half, Skins 20, Saints 14.

Louise -- LMAO -- "unfortunate looking" Megan. God, I hate that horse-toothed ninny! This is my theory -- a slutty Don is a good Don, a productive Don. The faithful Don has been nothing but unprodutive & boring. ITA. And Roger has to go back to being slutty -- I love slutty Roger, too -- rawwwrrr!!!

Twat Muffin's picture

EC -- hey, babe! Now I thought Hamm was good in "Bridesmaids," but I barely remember him in "Sucker Punch." It was like if you blinked you wouldn't even see him. He was so-so at best in "The Town," but he really is superb as Don Draper. How he hasn't won an Emmy yet is surprising. You brought up his father being a drunken cheat. Jon has a very sad home life. He's admitted to having depression. His mom died when he was 10, his dad when he was 20, so I cut a lot of slack for him. To endure such losses at such a young age has had to have fucked him up. But I do not hope he is shagging Wiig. Like her or not, she is not attractive and I do not want him to be hitting that.

No, he was quite the enthusiastic cheater the first 4 seasons. He tried to give up drinking in like 2 episodes and it didn't take. I have no idea how any work gets done at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce, because they are ALL always drinking. Then he took up with his unfortunate looking, but French-Canadian secretary, Megan, and got married between seasons 4 and 5. We (every Mad Men fan ever) all hate Megan and he stopped cheating. BUT at the conclusion of season 5, they sort of opened that door for him to start man-whoring again. He's super boring when he's not man-whoring and he wasn't even that good at work this past season.

Submitted by Foxxy Brown on Sun, 09/09/2012 - 2:44pm.

Foxxy, you nailed his character as if you were a life long Mad Men fan! LOL!

Yes, he is basically playing himself. Not much of a stretch!

Submitted by nibbles44 on Sun, 09/09/2012 - 2:39pm.

EXACTLY! I laughed at his facial expressions throughout the movie. Talk about try too hard.

You're right, Lively gets shit for her acting in that movie, and she was actually a little better than Hamm, if you can compare two really wooden and try too hard actors.

LOL. I hadn't really considered her discomfort, Randé, but suffice it to say that she is one brave woman.

Within- The other one I love is when he finds a copy of, I think, The National Review and asks Annie, "What are you dating a right-wing rock and roll star now??"

Cuppy- I agree. He's not really that attractive or a good actor when he's not being Don Draper, but he is hilarious on SNL. Jon Hamm's John Ham and Best Cry Ever are really funny. If Lainey blind items are to be believed, Jon Hamm's low hangers are slapping Wiig's ass on the regular.

For some reason I imagine Jennifer has a google alert on herself.

I kinda feel bad for sanchez since the fans are not behind him and people are just waiting to see if tebow has to step in. And I've hated tebow since Florida. But Eva fucking Longoria? Ugh. He's making it hard to support him by associating with that talentless conniving crosseyed failed social climber.

i don't watch Mad Men but have impression that his character is hard drinking cheater (albeit reluctant?) who is the hot shit at work but his personal life is in shambles? if so, yeah, how could he not do well acting in that role?

@EC I watched The Town about a month ago and I agree with the Hamm comment he sucked as much as Blake Lively, yet she gets much more scorn.

Submitted by louise_brooks on Sun, 09/09/2012 - 2:09pm.

That Woody Allen comment was so dead on, I am jealous of it! LOL!

His father was a cheater and drunk, and I am pretty sure he isn't much different. Like you said, she turns a blind eye to all his faults, because he is Jon Hamm.

I am pretty sure once Mad Men ends, which is after season 7, if memory serves, he will not have much going for him, because he can't act, other than as Don Draper. I have seen everything he has done on the big screen and he is really bad. I was almost embarrassed for him in The Day the Earth Stood still and The Town. He was awful trying to emote grief in Stolen, and he was almost comic in Sucker Punch, and do not get me started on Howl and Bridesmaids! He better hope he continues his friendship with Kristin Wiig, because she will give him parts in her movies, which will be lucky for him, because outside of favors from Jenny and Kristin, his acting gigs will dry up.

btw, i know RG did not throw for 88 yards, but in fantasy the QB gets credit for the full yardage of the reception run (as does the receiver). your fantasy football education for the week.

In the pre season they reported Andrew Luck's first pass went for a 68 yd. touchdown. They didn't mention it was a 9 yd. completion and a 58 yd. run.

Redskins just scored again.

You know, even Angelina and Brad give the "clinging to each other" thing a rest sometimes, BUT not Westie. Did you ever see the ads they did for Gap a few years back? She was draped over him better than any sweater could ever have been.

She would drag her naked body across broken glass if Hamm was walking over it. She isn't about to let go.

I bet you are right about the keeping his life perfect. "Oh my, you are out of Budweiser, and it's 3am and you have been out all night and smell like pussy?! Let me dash to the nearest store 2 hrs away and get you some. Just relax and I will be right back!"

Foxxy, back then I was a big fan. When Dan Snyder bought the team that began to change and got worse year after year. I've been saying for years they needed to invest in the O line, they didn't (much) and come pre season I got sucked into the hype. The free agent thing never made sense to me, you give a guy a boatload of money for what he's done for another team and expect that money to compensate for the poor talent in other positions. But they always blame the guy they gave the money to. I hate the Shanahans, hate how they did McNabb even if he was washed up.

Even if they win I'll be reluctant to jump on the bandwagon. This is a very fickle town.

Cuppy- that was me. LOL 70's Woody Allen is hilarious to me.

From Annie Hall:

Duane: Can I confess something? I tell you this as an artist, I think you'll understand. Sometimes when I'm driving... on the road at night... I see two headlights coming toward me. Fast. I have this sudden impulse to turn the wheel quickly, head-on into the oncoming car. I can anticipate the explosion. The sound of shattering glass. The... flames rising out of the flowing gasoline.
Alvy Singer: Right. Well, I have to - I have to go now, Duane, because I, I'm due back on the planet Earth.

She does cling to him like if she lets go, he'll run away. But like someone else said, she probably manages his life well, look the other way at his cheating, and since she was with him before he made his money he trusts her not to steal it all.

SANS FARDS's picture

Foxxy - RG3 seems like the real deal. I hope it'll be an exciting season, god knows the long-suffering Skins fans could use one. I don't really like the Saints so I hope they get crushed today.

And yes, fuck the Patriots.

I could be wrong, but I've seen this dynamic before. He doesn't break up with her because she manages his life perfectly. Stocks his favorite beer, makes his dr. appts, plays the bad guy when he doesn't want to do something ("I'd love to, but Jennifer hates opera"), tolerates his whoring.

You make a lot of spot-on observations, but this is one of the best. I'm sure it's gotten even more symbiotic recently, since he's got the hit show.

(Hopefully the commando sex is good, too.)

the brain trust on the fox pregame show voted 3-2 Dirty Sanchez would not get benched this season. the 2 were Howie (for injury) and Strahan said in essence because Sanchez will suck and fans will demand it

I'm not sure how it'll play out--I just love a good trainwreck (or, as Jim Rome calls it, a "dumpster fire"). A few fatal picks by Sanchez--a given--and the NY fans will demand Tebow. One or two fails by Sanchez in the red zone: Tebow time. One public spat with Eva Longoria...

To all who mentioned it, TEAM FIREFLY!!! Great show, a sci fi with elements of westerns, civil war and pirate themes. I fell in love with Gina Torres and Summer Glau. Underrated show.

Sans, you know what I mean right? People here (and I'm a native) are delusional about the Skins. I heard Dallas is just as bad but here I'm just tired of drinking the kool aid. I'd rather follow the Ravens in B'more.

Yup. Some people (men and women) can smell weakness in other people and they take advantage of it. The weaker partner worships the ground they walk on, and the outwardly (BUT secretly insecure) partner, gets the constant praise they need to feed their ego.

In public, the "stronger" partner may come across as confident, but behind closed doors they make comments to make the insecure partner even more so.
