Random Quote “I don’t necessarily want kids. A lot of our friends are having children and I don’t know if it’s for me. I haven’t come down hardcore on either side of the argument. I think when people come from a stable family having children becomes a celebration and I’m not sure it would be that way for me.” by Jon Hamm

‘Breaking Bad’ creator mentions Jon Hamm
There’s a great interview with Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan on TV Squad. He mentions Jon at the end of the interview.
Because for the next three or four years, I get the feeling there’s going to be like Emmy and Golden Globe consideration for both of your shows every year. And it’s just the two shows duking it out every year for the high honors?
Well, I just, you know, I still, it sounds corny. It sounds like, you know, honest to God, I cannot believe our show is even on the air. I mean, it is so out there and it’s so dark, and it’s a show about a guy dying of cancer who’s cooking crystal meth. I mean, you know, I cannot believe we’re even on the air.
So if I ever say, ‘Eh, gee, I wish, you know, I’d love to be up there with ‘Mad Men,” because you know, it’s only human nature to feel that way, then I stop and think to myself, ‘You’re lucky to even have this thing on the air.’ It’s so out there. It’s so crazy. And you know, I’m so proud to be mentioned in any similar breath with ‘Mad Men,’ because it is a great show.
And I love all those actors. I’ve met pretty much all the actors on ‘Mad Men,’ and they’re a great bunch. They’re a sweet bunch of people. And Matt Weiner’s a great guy, very talented. So being mentioned as some form of number two behind them is pretty fast company to be in.
But Bryan’s been beating Jon Hamm out a couple times now…
Well, you know, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want our guys to sweep all those awards, and Bryan to keep on winning them. But I tell ya, if he were to lose, I’d love to see him lose to Jon Hamm, who is a wonderful guy.
Funny as hell.
Funny as hell, wonderful guy, and just, I think he’s gonna be a big star too.
That’s the other thing that both stars of both shows are really good actors, and serious actors, and both funny as hell.
Yeah. Both funny as hell. Yeah. I love Jon Hamm. He’s a great guy. He’s gonna be a big star.
I think he already is.
I think he already is, but I mean, once ‘Mad Men’ ends, I think he’s gonna go on to be a big movie star.
And by the way, Breaking Bad season 3 start on March 21!

Do Jake And Jon Get Paid To Be Action Figures?
Indeed, the Don Draper Barbie does capture some of Draper’s existentialist ennui, if not his inner demons spurring from all the lies he’s living. Sounds like a fun dolly!
Speaking of fun, there’s also this way adorable, blocky Lego rendition of Jake Gyllenhaal’s Prince of Persia character. But is there money forthcoming from all that happy plastic?
Not likely, entertainment attorneys tell me.
“In most circumstances these rights get dealt with as part of the initial deal with the actor,” says Miles J. Feldman of the law firm Liner Grode Stein.
Courts have heard arguments about just how much an actor’s image is entwined in an iconic character. But “generally,” Feldman says, “the copyright holder has the exclusive rights to exploit the characters.”
In other words, no extra pay, really. Everything’s built in to the actor’s fee or weekly salary.
Unless a TV show’s producers didn’t anticipate huge success when they first signed on the actors—the kind of popularity that spurs Barbies.
In that case, the show producers or toy manufacturers may cut a separate, new deal with the actors after a show is hot, but only in the context of the franchise, such as Mad Men. Enter a Don Draper doll, dressed in all his ring-a-ding-ding finery, but not a Jon Hamm doll.
That would be a thoroughly unrelated type of hot.
None of this means that stars don’t get some involvement in their toy merchandising.
When NBC announced a charity auction of some signed bobble heads modeled after The Office character Dwight Schrute, the actor who played him, Rainn Wilson, got to choose the charity.
