My wife and I noticed. She was on Pushing Daisies, too, we think.

Really? I thought I'd seen her before but I couldn't figure out from where.

So, she was institutionalized because she rejected her baby? I thought (why I interpreted it this way) that she had tried to give the baby up for adoption w/o permission from her parents and the state prevented her from doing that.

She's over 18, so she wouldn't have had to get permission from her parents. I would think that it was more that she had denied that she was pregnant, then refused to acknowledge the baby. In that time, they would have thought that something was wrong with her because every woman wants to be a mother!

Was it over 18 in the 60s? Wouldn't it have been over 21?

In one episode, she said she was 22. I thought that was in the first season, so she would have been well over the age of consent/legal/whatever.

Vortex has it right. Any woman who didn't want a child must be INSANE. The denial didn't help any.

I had friends who, even in the 80s, the Navy wouldn't tie their tubes without a psych eval, because women must want children! It's abnormal not to want children! Argh.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Adorable interview with Jon Hamm. [link]

Check him out bragging on his girlfriend and talking about being an old dude. He seems like such a nice, regular guy.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

He seems like such a nice, regular guy.

He totally does (and also a mensch, even though you edited that.)

I think he severely underestimates the kind of shape he's in for his many topless scenes, because, humina humina.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heart him!

About last night's show, no one has said: Damn, Joan! Although I think she's totally right about what's his name wanting to seem "interesting."
