It often felt like you were exhausted by the Don Draper worship. Is that a misread?https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/jon-hamm-interview-fargo-mad-men-marriage-morning-show-1235925744/
Jimmy Gandolfini, whom I knew a little bit, had a similar relationship to Tony Soprano, and Bryan Cranston had it with Walter White. The character got celebrated for the wrong reasons. People thought that Don was this paragon of masculinity or whatever. There were so many think-pieces, and you go, “Wait, he was pretty fucked up.” And I was very happy with how Matt ended the story, but it was also hard.
Did you talk to Cranston and Gandolfini about those challenges, including how to move on? Like, an antihero support group.
Never specifically. But Jimmy and I have a very interesting connection because when he passed away, his son, Mikey, reached out to me, and I’ve been a bit of a mentor to him. He said, “My dad told me that you were a good guy.” I literally was like, (pantomimes bawling), “OK, let’s be friends.” And he is. He’s my buddy. And Bryan, we did one of our first photo shoots together for AMC’s new lineup. He’s in his tighty-whities and a chemical apron and I’m in a suit with a cigarette. He’s like, “You got the better deal on this.” Turns out he got a pretty good deal, too. But yeah, he’s been a great friend and a good source of wisdom. You go through things like that, and there are very few people you can commiserate with.
And yea, the analogs for Draper to me were always to Tony Soprano.
Nah there's absolutely nothing gray-area with Homelander. He's purely a bad guy.
At least with Tony and Draper (and early Walt White) there's ambiguity around their character and motivations.

By reilo Go To PostNah there's absolutely nothing gray-area with Homelander. He's purely a bad guy.I mean there are some people who don't realise Homelander is the bad guy.

They do realize it (that he's seen as bad). They just prefer it that way.
It's part of the right-wing never play defense approach. If it confused you or pisses you off that they seem oblivious to their hypocrisy, they'll double down on it just to piss you off more. Just like internet trolls.

By reilo Go To PostNah there's absolutely nothing gray-area with Homelander. He's purely a bad guy.What ambiguity is there around Tony’s racism?

By FortuneFaded Go To PostWhat ambiguity is there around Tony’s racism?I didn't claim Tony was a good guy
By s y brev Go To PostThe real issue is that no one else in the boys cast has any charismaDa fuck is this?
By RAThasReturned Go To PostDa fuck is this?A very accurate statement tbh
By WoodenLung Go To Posti dont know how any of you survived season 2. thought first season was pretty fun and then…The Frenchie episodes were pain
By s y brev Go To PostThe real issue is that no one else in the boys cast has any charismaif we don't include MM's T-shirt game, this is fairly accurate
By inky Go To PostI almost didn't recognize MM this season nglhe did that to respect the source material, I read.
By Zabojnik Go To PostYes lads
By blackace Go To Posthe did that to respect the source material, I read.The source material doesn’t deserve that honour
By HottestGrapes Go To PostThe source material doesn’t deserve that honourAlso true
By HottestGrapes Go To PostThe source material doesn’t deserve that honourwell the actor is mad OCD so I doubt that opinion matters 😂
By blackace Go To Postwell the actor is mad OCD so I doubt that opinion matters 😂Is he actually? That part about his dad passing on his OCD wasn't just for narrative purposes?
Up to season 5 of Game of Thrones. Might be up there with nicotine and crack in terms of addiction.
Peter Dinklage pretty much steals every scene he’s in. Don’t really care much for many of the characters, they all seem like arseholes in one way or another. Watching in hopes of seeing their demise more than anything.

By reilo Go To PostIs he actually? That part about his dad passing on his OCD wasn't just for narrative purposes?they added it to MM's character for him.
By blackace Go To Postthey added it to MM's character for him.Had no idea, that makes sense
maybe added is too strong, I guess they focused on it more because Larz could understand it.
Looking MM's comic profile, he had OCD like Larz has in real life and they made it bit more severe in the show
Apparently, Larz goes around tidying up other actors' rooms

a) stop trying to make this happen
b) the leads confirmed it's not happening
c) stop trying to make this happen, this isn't The Office ffs
By s y brev Go To PostThe real issue is that no one else in the boys cast has any charisma
