Elisabeth Moss, Abigail Spencer and Matt Weiner's Son Grab Attention in the Papers This Week
Elisabeth Moss' wedding to Saturday Night Live's Fred Armisen, a chat with Abigail Spencer (who plays Suzanne Farrell) and fresh fall fashion advice from Matt Weiner's son Arlo are among the talking points in the papers this week. Where to begin?
• Let's start with Moss' wedding to SNL's Armisen which was mentioned on MSNBC.com, the Daily News, E Online, Us Weekly and People, among other sites.
• On the same note, the Nov. 8 issue of TV Guide (no link) has a profile of Moss. In it, Jon Hamm is quoted as saying: "I was along for Fred and Lizzie's first date, and I felt very 'big brother' that night. Still do."
• The same issue of TV Guide mentions Betty's confrontation with Don in its Watercooler section.
• Meanwhile, Kiernan Shipka (Sally Draper) is on the Hollywood Reporter's list of young actors to watch.
• Speaking of Halloween, thinking of going as Betty and Don? Wonderwall runs down its list of obvious choices, and the Mad Men couple clocks in at No. 7.
• OK! lists TV's hottest couples; Betty and Don make that list. (No link; Nov 9 issue.)
• OK! also talks to Abigail Spencer (Suzanne Farrell) about her beauty and style secrets. Some of her icons: "Everyone from Audrey Hepburn, Katharine Hepburn, Coco Chanel, Ali MacGraw, Barbra Streisand, to Heidi Klum."
• Also in People, a visit to Bryan Batt's New Orleans shop, Hazlenut. (No link; Nov. 9 issue).
• This week's episode yielded reviews and recaps in the usual outlets: The New York Times, The LA Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, TV Guide, Entertainment Weekly, The Chicago Tribune, The Wall Street Journal, TV Squad, NBC.com, The Hartford Courant, Buzzsugar, The Seattle Times, and Multichannel News, which calls it the "best episode ever."
• The AV Club ends its recap with: "It's been said before, but let's say it again: Jon Hamm is a hell of an actor as he proved again this week."
• How about some fashion advice (and some possible Halloween ideas) from young Arlo Weiner? You'll find some of his thoughts (and pics, like the one at left of him and brother Marten) on GQ.com.
• New York magazine offers not just a recap, but also an interview with Christina Hendricks on Joan's "big moment." Fun fact: She still hasn't seen the scene with the vase.
The Gypsy And the Hobo was the best episode (so far) of the season, and it is good to know that so many critics agree with me.
I feel the same as the AV Club. He is an hell of an actor. Not just because I am a Maddict, but I believe that Jon Hamm is the best actor currently working in TV.
The Watcher's Maureen Ryan (Chicago Tribune) stated in her review of last week's episode that she thinks Hamm deserves an Emmy. I could not agree more.
Great links to great articles. Especially enjoyed Arlo's comments and his style. Matt must be very proud (of all his children)!

Amen, kathiemarie....took the words right out of my fingers.
Hey! SC, and if you liked that one, what about this weeks episode? Wow! I can't wait till Sunday night!
Just got my new issue of Entertainment in the mail, and it has a picture of Don and Roger in Joan's apartment. You can probably go online and see it. What do you think is going to happen? Has she finally killed Greg, and called the only two people in the world she can trust? Love your new pic!
