You realize how great January is as an actress by watching her in interviews. She is SOOO different from Betty. In mannerisms, posture, even the voice and inflections! It's like there's no Betty there at all. It's rare that you see an actor morph into a completely (in every way) different person for their role. Love January :)
ReneM I agree with you!
I think she’s very similar to Betty. She’s cold, blank faced, not very animated when she talks, monotone
@@gnislia I agree!
She is awkward in front of a live audience
@@gnislia based
When you compare January's work in Love Actually to her character in Mad Men, you see she has such range of acting talent.
it has to be so awkward to talk about your character if you are an actor/actress right next to the main writer, who could tell you if you are right or wrong
The actresses are treated like arm candy here. I wanted to hear more from January Jones. Great actress and absolutely stunning.
Thing is, in reading the above bone-headed comments most of the people here are only interested in the women -and their legs etc....:)
Sally was an extraordinary. What an actor that young lady is. She was the real adult in that family. Between Don and Betty. She really was.
You sir are an idiot. And It's a good performance, but when you see what an empty headed ditz and valley girl she is in real life, (go look at a recent talk show appearance) it really shows that twits like you can't separate the show from ACTUAL reality. Is she more likeable on the show, Sure. The performance on that show had a lot of direction they can't make the most vapid and idiotic child look like a saint.
Really?? Watch any scene with her and Glenn and it's instant cringe. Just over the top and no subtlety at all. Fine for a child actor but really nothing special
@@samuelmorse784 Betty, is that you?
@@JohnSmith-to5ow Yes Don? I miss that dick.
Sally made a great Tom Collins heavy on the gin.
The moderator Caryn James talking about how Betty wasn’t happy back to January Jones around 26:40 and not listening at all was a terrible look. Love Matthew but she addressed all her questions to him and didn’t do a good job moderating this discussion and treating her female guests like equal participants.
Watched a Downton Abbey cast roundtable interview- when they were asked their favorite American tv show ...this is how I found the Mad Men series !! Congratulations to all - wonderful entertainment !
quinongrains really? Can u tell me which interview? Thank you!
both are gorgeous , anybody can be gorgeous but their personality , acting skills and respect for other people is very rarely found in other actors . they have so much of that . both of them look very sweet with Jon
I will always have a special place in my heart for Mad Men. It was the first newer television series I watched after not watching TV for like 10 years. I was floored by the level of writing, acting, production and characterizations, plus I grew up in the 60s and I have a great interest in 60s history. It is noteworthy that Gary Oldman was a huge fan of the show. Also, it was the first time a series ended and I felt so sentimental about missing the characters, and not only the characters, but also the world they inhabited.
worth the hour and a half... love mad men so much can't wait for spring!!
This moderator perceives Mad Men only in the most LITERAL sense possible. She can't see any metaphors, subtext in ANYTHING which is at least half of the show. Ugh.
Agreed! I was stunned at how little she understood about the characters or any of the nuances of the show. It was almost as if she were asking questions about a completely different show.
“At the end, does Don know who he is?” She completely missed the point. Of course he doesn’t.
That stupid fake laugh too! As if she was forced at last moment to do this interview!
When do Americans ever see subtext???
Kavore Kavore that’s a negative stereotype, yes sort of true but also they could’ve hired a capable American, the show was created by them
My father left for the clients daughter that looked like his daughter, who instead of being disinherited inherited the beach house on the bluffs of Southern California. It’s worth 6 million today, but they zeroed out on that too. Madmen was like seeing that period not as an 8 year old, or 13 year old but the back story of all that was going on. Everyone in the block saw their parents get divorced except the WWII boys, a Jewish couple, and my Mormon Orthodontist. 🧡
Stunning.
Was that the 70's?
January Jones was my favorite character on the show
best show I have ever watched on par with The Sopranos .
Paolo Bafico up there with Breaking Bad for me also
lol he referred to January's pregnancy as a problem
Yeah. I caught that too. I thought that was ungracious.
Don't be an idiot. It *was* a (minor) problem that had to be worked around.
😂
The change in her figure due to pregnancy was a problem for shooting the show. Don’t play dumb.
This moderator could have answered most of her own questions, but you know watching the show. Megan's opinion of Betty and vice versa are well known
I wish it was just the wives. Because I wanted to hear from them.
They were characters in a television show played by actresses. Characters written by Mr Weiner. You do realize that neither of these actresses were married to a man playing the part of the fictional character Don Draper??
I wish the clips weren't cut out that they discuss :(
Matthew Weiner is fascinating, but wasn't it supposed to be "Matthew Weiner AND the Wives of Don Draper?"
i really, really, really miss Mad Men.
Then rewatch it. It’s not going anywhere.
I think Jessica (herself) and her character as Megan Draper is being nice to January Jones a little too much both on screen and off screen but it's an admirable character indeed, anyway. She seems like such a lovely, smart and a very down to earth person. She's beautiful inside out. That's a true beauty.
Boy, that Weiner sure does love the sound of his own voice.
Yobachi2007 i mean he is the showrunner and most questions were about nature of the characters. At least seemed to me that way.
His voice was the only one that mattered.
Well, he's earned it. He's really got a nick for what he does. It takes a bizarre, yet, talented person, to do what he did, with Madmen. I think he genius. He's passionate.
I don’t understand why someone would make a point of watching this clip and expect him to talk less or enjoy himself less.
Why did you even bother?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn’t know Matthew was a wife of Don Draper
Then you, sir, cannot read subtext.
oh yeah, he's a wife all right
the volume is so low! Gah! Still love the content. If the sound is going to be at these levels, maybe closed captioning?
oh gawd, that woman's laugh sounded like Eddie Murphy on frigging helium....
January doesn't need the make-up -- especially the eyes. Her eye make-up literally takes away from her beauty. She is so beautiful, and that make up just wrecks it.
trqsdays1 It looks fine you act like she looks like Dracula or something.
That woman's laugh is nails on a chalkboard! UGH!
Why can’t we see the clips of the show?? Very frustrating
That scene where they use Tomorrow never Knows manages to capture the Ontological split the 60s brought about.
Absolutely. Nice to read intelligent comments from time to time !!!
Matt Weiner should let his work speak for itself. I couldn't make it past his "it's not harder than writing" comment. Hilarious. Way to appreciate your team.
Humor man. Embrace it. It is clear they all have a good relationship with each other
The moderator looks like Roger Sterling's secretary
She looks like Dana Delany
Looks like the one who fucks don then resigns, but twenty years older
did the moderator watched at least 1 episode of mad men???
It would be what is called " COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT ", check the law.
What?
January has beautiful legs.
Brooke Hanley boy, does she ever, and she walks like poetry in motion.
She has beautiful everything. A very stunning woman.
Anne Hajdu ha ha I was just about to say the same thing
She hit the genetic jackpot.
Legs??!!! She’s a 09/10 in my list. (she got a kid after a hit and run with a producer)
I can't stand Megan, I wish Don would boot her to the curb already. January isn't wonderful, meaning Betty, love both actresses. The best woman for Don was the psychiatrist. She was real.
deniseg812 Thats who he’d need is a therapist, but who wants to be psychologist in their romantic relationship? That doesnt allow you to show up as spouse in your own right.
@@mooalijasmine yeah, "therapist-wife to a 1950s man" is a complete and utter disaster.
I cried the first time I watched Shawshank.
why is he almost the only one speaking?!!!!!
THANK YOU, karel glasner!
Why aren't the clips included, and a little volume would be nice.
Is Kyle having anger issues?
I don't memorize TV shows. They just aren't that important to my life.
Providing a brief video to give context to the conversation would not have required re-showing the entire episode.
I noticed they fixed the volume issue.
It appears you spend an excessive amount of time attempting to converse with kids. Is there something you need to share?
lmao, That explains so much.
They are copyrighted. I know this show so well that I know what clips they are showing ☺️
I prefer Alison Brie.
Aaron,
She's on the new show "Devious Maids".
I didn't even recognize her. The character she plays is called Odessa and she's the assistant to a rock star or record producer.
Jessica Pare is stunning!
She's pretty when her mouth is closed.
Why dont they show the clips??
#copyrightinfringement
January Jones just appeared as second woman in Last Man on Earth. Lucky Phil!
LOL the two Mrs Drapers do NOT like each other....
January and Jessica are both Moon in Scorpio. Scorpio energy is extremely emotionally Intense and can be vengeful, Jealous and Power conscious when it's in it's Darker side.
They seem to be reflections of each other. That's why there is a tension there.
I don't understand why their character conflict seems to translate into real life though lol
The Power of Acting I guess.
What are you talking about?
Jessica has class and she is drop dead gorgeous.
The fuck was the camera man doing round the 4 minute mark?
Why did January and Jessica show up? Weiner wont cede the floor and the hostess addresses all her questions to him, anyway. He must have been a pip to work for.
I was wondering about that as well. I wanted to hear more from them.
Yes it’s hard to watch the two women being completely left out. Rude and terrible.
Jessica Pare is gorgeous and good actress. And her teeth are REAL. So is her whole beauty. Unlike the plastic surgery creations you most likely admire.
Almost all the women of Mad Men....HOT HOT HOT....Jessica Pare, January Jones, Alison Brie, Christina Hendrickso, Cara Buono......And Mrs. Blankenship...lol..not...but she was too funny not to include.
Have you forgotten? Ida was a hellcat!
David Hutchinson I like peggy and trudie
David Hutchinson Maggie Siff. RoseMarie Dewitt, and I'm still forgetting some.
Edward Rodriguez Possibly one of the top ten scenes. I luckily forgot about it, watched it again, and laughed just as hard. Roger and Ida. The mind boggles.
David Hutchinson Linda Cardellini!
Jealous. That's exactly what Betty felt about Megan. I watched the episodes as they first premiered when Betty grew fat and growing old. I was early 30s and just diagnosed with hypothyroidism and all I could do was bawl watching those scenes.
I believe it's a bit more ambiguous . To me Betty at some point almost wanted to dump Don , Mr Francis and whomever and fuck Megan in a head way...
Have you ever seen the commentaries on the DVDs? He gets a woody listening to himself talk.
Why can't we see the clips??? :((((
Copyright issues.
so the girls were mostly eye candy. shame on the interviewer!
Interviewer must stop laughing. Her laugh is so distracting.
Can someone explain to me why Betty got way more sympathy than Megan did when he was with Don? I mean, isn't it sadder that he cheats on Megan since she knows the truth about his past and still lives him unconditionally whereas Betty only lived the idea of him? I honestly thought it was his lie that caused him to cheat on Betty. I thought he would see his mistresses so that he could be his dick Whitman self with someone. But he's that way with Megan and he's still cheating. Isn't that sadder?
4:19 Wake up, buddy!
I get that it's probably a copyright issue, but the exclusion of the clips played during the interview is very annoying.
Annoyed to no end that the clips surrounding the discussion aren't shown!
January Jones is gorgeous. Only Jessica Pare can match her, and sometimes (depending on the angle) be the most beautiful woman alive.
Jessica Pare' is *far* more attractive than Jones. Anyone who thinks otherwise is grossly mistaken.
January Jones is from sioux falls south dakota
He cant be alone but he cant be with any one either.
And the naiveté and ego when people think Im rich enough or beautiful enough or so young or so charismatic and “in” on whats gone on before that this same person wont lie to me or cheat on me or take advantage of me... to not realize who the person is by thinking of yourself as an automatically overcoming influence for them...
As refreshing as an attitude of Im already bored of your past and am only focused on you now is, when the other person’s past is so integral to them in the present, that approach is not going to work. His past wasnt in the past and Megan didnt give it the relevance it required, perhaps because a twenty year old isnt likely to know any better, which can be precisely the draw for a man of a different generation fooling himself into thinking he will automatically be different with a fresh chance without any of the persistent effort change requires.
I miss this show so much. MW's ego is a bit off-putting.
Team Betty :P
January ..... WHAT A BABE !
Matthew Weiner gives a bigoted kick to all Catholic women and it gets a laugh. Nobody even mentions it here in the comments. In American society, where every word one utters is carefully weighed so as to not offend, I am a bit surprised that there was silence here. Is he so brilliant, that whatever he says is beyond criticism? I personally am not sensitive to his opinions, but I am surprised that a video with nearly 40k hits has not made his comment more of a topic.
There's a Mrs. Draper missing.
Jessica is too pretty for this world.
Don needed to marry a woman who was also a work collaborator. His infidelity demanded he not be allowed to move 'out of sight, out of mind'.
The laugh of that moderator! Annoying...
Poor Betty. :(
great interview
why did you click on the video in the first place?
Damn you Don...just...damn you...
Matthew Weiner, so engaging. What a mind.
Look at his father's occupation. Genetics.
Let me put it this way if Mathew Weiner is floored by January Jones hey man "I stand corrected"
How all women felt in the late 60’s and early 70’s when their husbands left your a younger, and prettier middle. Pure hell
They didn't talk for a whole hour on "the wives of Don Draper" though, Matt covers lots of stuff..
Don doesn't know how to change. One has to understand, those brought up in the manner in which Don was, doesn't KNOW how to change. He's a broken man. He's also compulsive: especially, bedding all these women. It 's between fantasy, and hiding his pain, his past, and his demons more less. He seems secure in who is. Then again, he really isn't. He didn't want Meagan acting nor Betty. For difference reasons with Betty. Because the people really didn't want her. Meagan being younger and having no responsibilities. Don was a little threatened by that. He thought he could just mold her in what in wanted. Am I wrong? I don't think so.
💯 don was a malignant narcissist. Partners of narcs aren’t allowed to be their own person (I speak from experience)
Notice January's body posture. Her leg is crossed AWAY from Jessica and she leans away from her.
so what
She simply wanted to show some of her great attributes ! And boy is she right !!!
I agree. Where is Anna Draper? Melinda Hamilton puts these two women to shame. At least on the show that is.
I was surprised they didn't have Don bring home a case of the clap or some such STD You know he would blame it on a dirty toilet seat or a house keeper not changing the sheets in a hotel room.
Most of the months of the calendar were named after real names (or names of Roman or Greek gods).
the hostess laugh......
Where's Anna Draper?
Dead, remember?
cuz I like the show. whats it to you?
When I'm 40 I want to be sitting where Matthew is
My god! That tie! Ugh it's the nicest tie I've ever scene!
Scene 🤣🤦
All Draper's lovers and wives had a sad or terrible end.
this
good lord
everyone was laughing at his unfunny jokes too
So boring. I wanted to hear from Jessica Pare some more but SOMEONE was filled with conversation vomit.
Jessica Pare is a lifeless mannequin with almost zero intellect what kind of blubbering fool would want to hear from her?
This interviewer needs to retire.
Beauty... and legs... and more legs.
Actually Anna Draper was the better wife for Don..she ac epted him for all he was
I think Jessica Paré looks a lot like Steven Tyler's actress daughter -- whose name I forget.
her laugh. no. please. no
It is really irritating to have the scenes cut from the interview so that we don’t know what the hell they are talking about. How greedy to you have to be to do that?
Unfortunately it’s a copyright issue on YT, clips from shows, movies, music etc can’t be played without permission
Eliminate Weiner from the equation and this interview would've been 100000% better.
What a horrible laugh she has!
who?
@@ruth078 21:47
Who
Amen to Mathew for pointing out non math types are typically talented creatively. Caryn seems to have a very limited outlook.
I wanted to hear less from Mr. Weiner in this hour, more from the performers. I'm not even sure why the women are there if he's going to totally hijack the interview.
