    He is an alcoholic and relapsed a few years ago. Depression might also be an issue, but those things go hand in hand.

    Love the Virgin Voyages ad about kids being pissed they’re not allowed.



    However, I gotta say this little girl scares the shit outta me. B2C869D6-26E7-45B1-AD13-7EA8A370622A.jpeg

    IDK how I missed this....but the little singing mascot in the Dr Pepper ads is Justin Guarini of runner-up-to-Kelly-Clarkson-on-American-Idol fame.

    Hamm is also in that "middle ground" of actors that can struggle to find "appropriate" projects now. He's not famous enough to open a movie on his own, but he's also famous enough that he's probably distracting in a prominent role in a show. (i.e. Unless he's just doing a cameo-against-type, it's hard to see him as anything but Don Draper.) He could probably be the lead on another streamer or network show, but if you were already the face of Mad Men, it's probably hard to see that as anything but a demotion. It wouldn't surprise me if he just continues to show up in part-time roles on comedies until he's aged out to grandfatherly kind of roles.

    The 1980s child in me has been liking the Amazon Prime Day commercial, with the nod to Billy Ocean's "Get Out of My Dreams."

    He and Kyle Chandler seem to be in the same predicament. I think Chandler is a better actor, but he’s going to be uptight law enforcement guy for the rest of his prime.

    Hamm should do a comedy. He's been great on SNL. I could see him as the "villain" like Dabney Coleman's role in 9 to 5, Or as a guy who seems to have it totally together, but is a real mess. Cast him as a Senator - who only goes along with the party line (doesn't matter which party) because he likes being a Senator.

    Ironically, Hamm played the FBI agent in The Town in 2010. Ben Affleck was also in it.

    I like this Taco Bell commercial because the actress is really cute. I'd like it more if they didn't show it 20 times each Dodgers game.

    Also, if their team is up, why are they the only two players in the dugout? I guess if they only have nine players, there could be bases loaded and with two coaches and an on deck hitter they could be the only two left.
