January Jones: TV Guide News

Mad Men's January Jones: Betty's "Time Bomb" Has Gone Off | Today's News: Our Take | 10/19/2008

Now that Mad Men's Don (Jon Hamm) has left the house, his future with wife Betty is left hanging in the balance, without much time left in Season 2 to figure it out. Yet, as Betty has slowly become more emboldened in recent episodes, her newfound independence is leaving her portrayer, January Jones, in a bit of a conundrum as to her hopes for the couple's storyline to come.

Jones wouldn't say exactly what does happen in the season's two remaining episodes, but she did share her hopes for Mr. and Mrs. Draper. "I'm old-fashioned. I'd really like to see her and Don work it out," she told TVGuide.com. "But, on the other side, if it were me, actually me, I would have kicked him out a long time ago, so I don't know."

Yet, she continued, "I have high hopes for her. I think these last couple of episodes have been a huge deal for her. I don't know what's happened that's made her have this strength all of a sudden, but I think the ticking time bomb went off."< read more be the first to leave a comment
Critic's Notebook: Mad Men, Fringe Update | Matt Roush | 9/16/2008
Some good news/bad news about AMC's Mad Men, which has been firing on all cylinders lately. The good news: The show has already won four creative arts Emmys (including cinematography, main title credits, art direction and, yes, hairstyling), and let's hope for even more good fortune come Sunday. More good news: Fans of Mad Men no longer have to choose between watching a new episode this Sunday or the Emmy telecast to see how the show fares. AMC has wisely decided to bench the show this weekend (replacing the scheduled new episode with a replay of the excellent "Three Sundays" episode from earlier this season).

Cheers: Diary of a Mad Housewife | Cheers & Jeers | 8/11/2008
Cheers to January Jones for her deceptively complex performance in Mad Men. Her work as homemaker Betty Draper may have been shamefully overlooked by the Emmys (along with the rest of Mad's women), but her portrayal has only grown subtler in the sublime AMC drama's second season. Whether she's quietly but firmly rebuffing her fellow equestrian's advances or playing the perfect bright and shiny "better half" at one of husband Don's business dinners, Jones lets just enough light shine through her nearly opaque exterior to let us see the human being inside. She's no mere desperate housewife.• Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more
Sexiest Stars: Sexy Party Secrets Revealed! | Today's News: Our Take | 5/2/2008
It's Thursday night and the party celebrating TV Guide's Sexiest Stars issue is just starting to clear out. Settling down into a vacated plush couch across from the sushi bar, for the first time in, oh, six hours I am off my feet. What a time! Katsuya and S Bar here at Hollywood and Vine was chock full of pretty — and that was even before I discovered the whole other room in the back! The turnout was terrific. You had a nearly full House (cast), a bazillion Dancing stars (past and present), Chuck and "Sarah" and, yes, Alex O'Loughlin. TV Guide's Sexiest Woman on TV 2008, Jennifer Love Hewitt, put in an early appearance, entirely earning her honor in a super-shimmery shape-hugging silver shift (is what I think the ladies call it). While the memories of my countless laps around the party crowd are still fresh (and only moderately fogged by vodka and tonic), let me do my best to take you inside the Sexiest night of TV's year.• The red carpet has just barely been unfurled an... read more
