    Thank god they kept him. I can't imagine anyone else as Don.

    Jon Hamm was perfect for the role.

    I couldn't imagine anyone else playing Draper. Jon Hamm is phenomenal in the role and boy is he sexy. A man's man. He is what i would call my fantasy man.

    I think Vince Vaughn would be great as someone who works in account, like a Ken Cosgrove type of character. not as don draper though.

    well, he fought for Jon Hamm as Don so I guess I have to forgive him for casting his kid as Glen

    What is funny about this kind of comment is: they don't understand the series. Mad Men is not about praising that kind of behavior, is about making a social comment about that era.

    Jon Hamm has a great personality.

    In TV and studio Movies, the chain of command/veto is labyrinthian. Just because you wrote something and are driving the car, doesn't mean that there aren't a hundred backseat drivers who are paying for each fill-up.

    Yes. But Clooney almost always does the same character: himself.

    Gosh, I wish men were still that way. Jon Hamm......perfect. Thanks so much to him and the great writing team and above all....Matthew Weiner, who had the "right eye" for the "right man." What a guy you are also. Love you for sticking to your guns...

    jon hamm is phenomenal, but the writing on this show could make damn near any actor with a sag card look charming and appealing to women cuz its that damn good.. shiit look how they make campbell.. that actor gets a ton of ass on this show, and he looks like he should be an inmate somewhere..

    @SapientSpaceApe 10 років тому +37

    Vince Vaughn, huh? I'd lean more towards Rob Schneider, myself.

    omg vince vaughn would have been AWFUL for this show! i cant believe matthew weiner considered him

    John Hamm as Don Draper > George Clooney. But Clooney is a stylish, smooth mo-fo in plenty of roles. Hamm looks kind of dorky as any character other than Draper.

    I agree

  • @davidhutchinson6377
    @davidhutchinson6377 10 років тому +15

    No...the guy who played the hardass on Deadwood would have been a decent Don Draper....Timothy Olyphant has that sort of presence....but I think they got it right on with Jon Hamm.

    Vaughn would have been interesting. Psycho, the Cell, etc. showed he can do dark adult work.
