When you’ve left such an imprint on your profession, how easy is it to leave a character behind and reinvent yourself? Jon Hamm’s doing just that with his latest roles, making sure everyone knows he is not (and never was) Don Draper, the main protagonist of TV’s Mad Men. He was just doing a job, but doing it extremely well. Some of his recent movies, like the political/action thriller Beirut, had him emerge as a credible leading man in a movie set in a foreign land. And then there’s his comedic side, with Tag and other smaller, funny roles. Having once described himself as “not overly ambitious,” there’s something quite down-to-earth about Jon. For the…

I like the thought of Thomas and Hope together; they did have feelings for one another before. But I suppose who hasn’t had feelings for each other previously on B&B? Can’t wait to see what unfolds in this relationship... and who’s gonna end up getting hurt!…

› Marriage has been torture for Heather for too long and her husband COLIN (Alan Dukes) is the root cause of it.

Even worse, he’s replaced his career in carpentry, gardening and bricklaying with a masterful and somewhat psychotic penchant to buy and sell on eBay, and Heather hates it, and hates…

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL WEEKDAYS 4.30PM ON 10 Despite a few misgivings about the show perpetually focusing its stories around her, HOPE and LIAM at the expense of everyone else, STEFFY’s homecoming from overseas could be a blessing in disguise.
