Mad Photobomber

Mad Bomber
Jon Hamm, January Jones & Kiernan Shipka

I believe it was just yesterday that I was thinking of Mad Men and what a great show it was. In fact it is in my Top 5 favorite TV shows of all time. Which is a pretty amazing feat since I only have three favorite TV shows of all time. I'm still waiting on the other two.

So here you have it for Sunday Funday the oh so sexy Jon Hamm photobombing his lovely Mad Men co-stars January Jones & Kiernan Shipka at an event of some sort.

Nostalgia isn't just for geeks Virginia, Santa Claus on the other hand...

Thus I leave you with this image and memory of a time gone by when Mad Men aired weekly. 

We always have reruns Minions!!!

Just Because...Jon Hamm

Who's Your Daddy?
Jon Hamm
Just Because he fills out his sweats nicely, Just Because it's Father's Day (think about it, but not too much) and Just Because he's bringing Bucket Hats back, here's Jon Hamm leaving a liquor store with what looks like an energy drink.

Happy Father's Day to all of you Daddy's out there (now do you get why Jon is my poster guy for it???) - Anyway nothing beats a Hamm sighting in sweatpants, although it does not look like Jon is up to his freeballing ways from this shot. Which is a bummer, I know he got a lot of attention for it in the press when Mad Men was on the air. Perhaps he decided to tie the Kraken down to avoid the unwanted(?) focus it drew.

Whatever the case a nice casual photo of him out and about is always a welcome sight.

Seize the day Minions!

Just Because...Christina Hendricks

Streets of Fire!
Christina Hendricks

Just Because I am a big fan of the show Mad Men, Just Because she looks fabulous & Just Because she is painting the town red, here's Christina Hendricks on the streets of NYC!!!

While I believe they ended the show Mad Men when the should of, with what I thought was a brilliant series finale. I still lament the fact that it's gone. I loved it so much!

All of the characters were so interesting, even if they weren't particularly likable

Christina Hendricks portrayed one of my faves Joan Holloway. "Joanie" as she was often referred to on the show, was well dare I say it, always the smartest person in the room. She was in control of who she was and pretty much controlled everyone else. She knew how to leverage her considerable sex appeal to her advantage, while still maintaining her dignity.

Not things were not always smooth sailing for "Joanie" she always managed to keep herself together. 

I wonder how "Joanie" would navigate today's world, being as it is way different. I believe she was the type of woman who would know how to work any situation in any time and place. Thus she would handle today's world like an expert, business as usual, carry on.

By The Sea

Reunited
Jon Hamm & Elisabeth Moss
The Place: Santa Monica, CA
The Time: 2020 Film Independent Spirit Awards 
The People in Question: Jon Hamm & Elisabeth Moss

Whilst having lunch with a friend at the LA County Museum of Art the other day, the subject of the TV show Mad Men came up. We both admitted our love of it, and lamented it's demise.

Then the WWW heavens opened wide and bestowed this photo of Don Draper & Peggy Olson - Jon Hamm & Elisabeth Moss respectively.

If you watched the show weekly like I did you know Peggy was Don's protegee at the advertising agency where they worked. "Yes" they had an unusually close bond, "No" they did not sleep together, although everyone assumes they did.

Now that the record has been set straight, I feverishly seek out Mad Men marathons on U-verse whenever possible. "Yep" I'm that guy...seize the day!

Monday Motivation

Just Be
Jon Hamm
Yesterday I did something that I haven't in a long time,meditate. With a little bit of a cough and the sniffles I decided it was OK to take some down time and do the minimal things that I needed to without being anxious. "Yes" I cleared my head of all thoughts of what I "should be" doing and just was.

It was one of the best days ever! When you feel anxious, stuck in a rut or just plain over things, take a mental vacation. It takes strong discipline to do it, but if everyday could be like, not to mention feel like yesterday I would be on cloud nine, ten, eleven...

Thus meditation is Monday Motivation - I leave you with this now iconic image of Jon Hamm doing just that in the series finale of one of my favorite shows ever Mad Men. If you recall Hamm's character, Don Draper came up with the iconic Coke jingle during this zen moment....I'd like to teach the world to sing, indeed....

Now get to it, meditate peeps, Namaste!

Monday Motivation

Would You Like A Slice?
Jon Hamm
While speaking with a friend of mine yesterday he mentioned seeing Jon Hamm in the current flick Beirut. He praised Hamm and the film. There's a tongue twister "Hamm and the film" say it three times fast c'mon, I dare ya.

Needless to say the conversation got me Jon Hamm dreamin' - "Yes" I started thinking about the sexy guy with the um, special delivery between his legs. 

Thus here he is in retro swim trunks during the shooting of Mad Men, one of my favorite TV Shows evuh. 

What's that? How is he Monday Motivation? Because Hamm's body is a hot regular guys body, not overly pumped but in good shape. Something that is attainable.

Having lost 40 lbs. recently having a body like his is my current goal, one I have almost reached.

So Happy Monday, time for me to have some private motivation with Jon!

Photobomb Drop

Where's The Hamm???
Jon Hamm, January Jones & Kiernan Shipka
I stumbled across a rerun of an episode of Mad Men the other day and realized how much I miss the show. Thus today's photobomb image is something of a flashback, well it is Flashback Friday after all.

One of the hottest men on three legs Jon Hamm is captured dropping the "P Bomb" on co-stars January Jones & Kiernan Shipka.

I make no bones about my thing for Hamm on here (get it? Bones?) He has movie star looks and a nice slice of you know what to go along with it. If you are confused as to how I know that clearly you haven't seen the magnificent pics of him freeballing. I wished that would have been a part of this bomb drop...sigh.

It's "Feud" Sunday!

Kiernan Shipka
as
BD Hyman
In case you have been living under a rock tonight the FX limited series Feud premieres. What's it about you ask, boy you really need to get out more. It's about the legendary Hollywood feud between Bette Davis & Joan Crawford.

The show has been getting a lot of hype due in no small part to the fact that it pairs two real life acting legends Jessica Lange as Crawford and Susan Sarandon as Davis. While that is all well and a good reason to tune in, there is someone else in the cast who is deserving of just as much attention.

Kiernan Shipka who portrayed Sally Draper on Mad Men is going to set her relationship status to complicated when she appears as the daughter of Bette Davis BD Hyman

Shipka is a quite magnetic and gifted actress and is sure to chew her fair share of scenery when she spars with Sarandon as her on screen Mother (read into that word choice what you will.)

Tonight's the night, let the games begin!

Sunday Schwing! Jon Hamm

You Can Leave Your Tie On
Jon Hamm
For some reason this weekend I am in Schwing mode, which means, well you get the drift...

Seeing this photo of Jon Hamm made me have Mad Men yearning, I really miss that show it was simply one of the best. Due in no small part to Hamm's spot on portrayal of Don Draper and how damn hot he looks in a suit.

Only Jon Hamm can make wearing a suit into some of the hottest foreplay ever. No one wears a three piece and a tie and works it like him.

Here he is unveiling the 100 Greatest NHL Players in Los Angeles and looking quite dapper, not to mention lickable. Makes you want to unleash the Kraken, no?

Schwing baby it's Sunday!

January Is The New October

Pretty In Black
January Jones
After last night's episode of  The Twilight Zone aka The Presidential Debate in which we got to witness Donald Trump again show what a piece of sh!t he is I thought it would be nice to enter another alternate reality. One where January takes over October, Actress January Jones that is.

This pic of her at the Hammer Museum Gala in Los Angeles is hotter than Georgia Asphalt!

It also gives me some Mad Men yearning. Honestly it's the only TV show I have ever really missed once it went off the air. 

So I am satiating myself with this image of the former Betty Draper today in an attempt to cleanse my, and your mind of last night's debacle and start your week off on a high note.

Have a terrific day, and watch out for falling poll numbers Trump!

"Kiss Me, Kill Me"

"While confronting his unfaithful boyfriend Dusty blacks-out. When he comes to, his boyfriend was murdered and he's the prime suspect."

If the title didn't get your attention I knew the above tidbit would. Sounds intriguing! Want to know more about this movie and how you can be a part of it? Read on, if you dare...

"Kiss Me, Kill Me” stars Van Hansis (“As the World Turns,” “Eastsiders”) and Gale Harold, who is playing a gay character for the first time since his legendary role as Brian Kinney on Showtime’s groundbreaking “Queer as Folk.”
Gay Again, Gale Harold

Directed by Casper Andreas (“Going Down In LA-LA Land,” “The Big Gay
Musical,”), from a screenplay by David Michael Barrett (“Such Good People,”
“Bad Actress”), picture boasts some powerhouse indie talent: Willam Belli
(“RuPaul’s Drag Race”), Kit Williamson (“Eastsiders,” “Mad Men”), Independent
Spirit nominee, Yolonda Ross (“Treme”), Tom Lenk (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”),
Brianna Brown (“Devious Maids”), Jonathan Lisecki (“Gayby”), Michael Maize
(“True Blood”), Craig Robert Young (“NCIS: Los Angeles”), Jackie Monahan
(“Foxy Merkins,” “Codependent Lesbian Space Alien Seeks Same”), as well as
Matthew Ludwinski and Allison Lane (“Going Down in LALA Land”).


It's Van Hansis
“I’m beyond thrilled about the fantastic cast we have assembled,” says director
Andreas. “That we managed to attach such great talent is a testament to David’s
sensational screenplay." He adds, "I can’t wait to get started on the production
and get to work with these wonderful actors, including my two “Going Down in
LA-LA Land” stars, Matthew and Allison.”

“Casper is a world-class filmmaker,” says screenwriter Barrett, “It’s going to be a
really fun ride seeing him, and this spectacular group of talent, bring my script to life.”

“Kiss Me, Kill Me” is a contemporary Alfred Hitchcock/Agatha Christie-style “whodone-it,” with the mystery centered on Dusty who confronts his unfaithful
boyfriend and blacks-out, only to wake up to find the boyfriend murdered and
he’s the prime suspect.

Director Andreas and screenwriter Barrett are producing. Their 30-day campaign
is looking for $100,000 and offering perks that range from digital downloads, to
being an extra, a speaking part, and different producing levels.

It's A "Mad Men" Party



Sing Along With: Mad Men
With the end of the final season of Mad Men drawing near and fan anticipation growing of how the series will end, did you ever wonder how the cast celebrated the taping of the final episode of the Emmy Award winning drama?

Drink excessively? Chain smoke until dawn? Smoke pot and have a Bacchanalian orgy? You know the way they do on the show.

Christina Hendricks recently gave Vulture the 411:

“We partied for about a week straight,” Hendricks spilled. “We’re all surprisingly into musicals,” she explained “There was a lot of singing of "Little Shop of Horrors," ‘Defying Gravity’ (from Wicked), and a little bit of "Frozen.” The secret is out now, the cast of Mad Men are musical geeks “I wish we were cooler.”

Thanks Christina for that bit of fun information, what a great way to move on from a great show, that although I am dying to know how it all ends, I will be sad to see it, the cast and Jon Hamm's bulge go.
