Remember me
JON HAMM HAS got another one. The 55-year-old actor will probably always be best known for his Emmy-winning role as Don Draper in Mad Men, one of the best television shows ever made. But in the decade plus since that show went off the air, he's built his career into something extremely well-rounded, often mixing in projects that show off his comedic talents (in shows like Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and movies like Confess, Fletch) while still being able to stretch his acting muscles to their limits (like when he played a psychotic and abusive small-town sheriff in season 5 of Fargo).
In Apple TV's Your Friends & Neighbors, his first true leading role and TV starring vehicle since Mad Men went off the air, he's found a project that kind of shows off a little bit of everything he can do really well. As the show's lead character, Coop—a family man living in suburbia whose situation suddenly leads him into a life of crime and thievery—Hamm gets to do a lot. He gets to look nice and dress cool, but he also gets to be funny; One scene from the first scene of him dancing at a club has become an inescapable online meme. But, at it's core, it's still a show with a dramatic plotline filled with cliffhangers. If you're watching, you're going to want to know what happens next.
That all makes sense—Hamm already made Mad Men. He doesn't want to make that again, and Your Friends & Neighbors has proven that it's something decidedly different. "We wanted to have a particular tone to the show—we didn’t want it to just be a straight serious drama; We wanted there to be moments of levity and humor in it," Hamm told Men's Health in an interview last year. "I like doing things that I feel like I would seek out and watch, and this is certainly one of those things."
We're right there with him. The first season of Your Friends & Neighbors left off with Coop deciding to return to his life of thievery even when he didn't need to—and season 2 will pick things up from there. But there are some new wrinkles to things as well: Sam (Olivia Munn) is back in the mix after getting caught trying to set Coop up for the death of her husband; a new neighbor named Owen, described as "Gatsby"-esque, played by James Marsden, is suddenly aware of Coop's dealings; and Mel, Coop's ex wife played by Amanda Peet, has her own story going on too. There's a lot happening in this show, and that's why we like it.
So, without further ado, let's make sure we know when every episode will be able to watch.
