“He’s a multitalented guy who asks students and protégés to rise to a high level. That’s what you want at that level of your education, to be inspired, challenged and driven, especially in an industry where most people fail. You need that kind of inspiration to succeed.” by Jon Hamm

How a band of Hollywood rejects created the smartest and most seductive show on TV
In the opening scene of the new season of Mad Men, an interviewer asks Draper, “Who is Don Draper?” Rather than confess the truth — that he’s a flimflam man who fabricated his whole identity from a dead Korean War officer and built his entire life on a lie en route to a Madison Avenue advertising career — Draper merely takes a drag on his cigarette. “I’m from the Midwest,” he says. “We were taught it’s not polite to talk about yourself.”
Here’s a nice little news tidbit on the Emmy night from E! Online:
The Mad Men table was also the place to be inside the convention center. Christina Hendricks, a very happy looking Elisabeth Moss, and Jon Hamm all sat together laughing most of the night away.
Since Mad Men won for outstanding drama series, they were some of the last to arrive and Jon seemed to have his priorities straight.
“Right when Jon walked in people wanted pictures with him. He said ‘One second!’, ran up to longtime girlfriend Jennifer Westfeldt and gave her a huge kiss, then went back and took pictures with whoever asked.”
Ugh, that man might be the closest thing to perfect we have in Hollywood.
And 2 more Emmy videos.

Jon and Jennifer leaving:
Update: I uploaded another (and adorable) video of Jon letting Kiernan Shipka answer the party question.
Jon Hamm didn’t win his Emmy Award last night for Best Actor. It doesn’t matter. With only one episode of the show left to shoot this season, Hamm is looking forward not back.
At the Governor’s Ball last night, Jon and his long time girlfriend Jennifer Westfedlt told me they’re getting to shoot a new film which she will film based on her own script.
“Friends with Kids” was already previewed on August 1st in a script reading at a theater festival. Now Jon and Jennifer say they’re ready to roll, and are starting to pull together what’s necessary to make “Friends” before “Mad Men” starts again.
Westfeldt is an accomplished writer and director, of course. Her “Kissing Jessica Stein” is still considered one of the great indie films of all time. Jon Hamm had a walk on in the 2001 production. Now he’ll be the star! The couple also said they’re hopeful Anne Hathaway and Kristen Wiig will be some of the other “Friends with Kids.”
Hamm is well on track to leave “Mad Men” and become a move star when the TV show’s run is up. His management and instincts keep pointing him in the right directions. Not only is he doing a lot of comedy– as in “Saturday Night Live” and on last night’s Emmy show with Betty White–but also on “30 Rock” where he’s been nominated for an Emmy. When “Mad Men” is over, Hamm will not be typecast as Don Draper. His next big digression is a big role in Ben Affleck’s “The Town,” which gets a release in a few weeks.
In this pre-Emmy clip, Tina Fey reveals that she’s booked Mad Man Jon Hamm for a return appearance as Drew in her show’s much-anticipated live episode:
