Little side note on Mad Men about Roger's ex-wife Mona in the last episode.
Played by John Slattery's real wife Talia Balsam.
Watching that scene I forgot for a moment that she was his IRL wife and thought, "Wow, she's such a good actress and while she's really attractive they usually don't cast a woman who's 53 to play a woman who's 53. She nailed every nuance in those lines."
(Secondary side note: She was married to George Clooney for four years. Also she's the child of Martin Balsam and Joyce Van Patten.)
The happy couple (Slattery looks *really* different with a beard): [link]
Thanks, Jon -- I think I could walk past him on the street without noticing.
My co-worker shared a subway car with him last week!
Anybody else watching Breakout Kings?
I am, but I haven't seen this week's yet.
married to George Clooney for four years.
Oh that hair was unfortunate!
I loved this episode of Mad Men. So many good moments! As noted, Peggy and Joan, Peggy and Megan, Megan being so sharp, Sally and Roger.
And then it ending with that really sad, sad tableau.
Loved it! That's the Mad Men I want!
Southland has been renewed!
I really didn't think it was going to happen.
