I just found out a fascinating fact. Jarad Harris (who plays Lane Pryce on Madmen) is the son of Richard Harris.

He was 12 when his parents divorced and his mother married Rex Harrison (who was a dick, apparantly). Of course he lived the upperclass British upbringing of private clubs and boarding schools, he rejected his parents and step parents aspirations and got accepted at Duke. He graduated and he's lived in the US ever since. I've grown to love his character, especially his purely platonic friendship with Joanie and I think he's a brilliant actor. Finding out his pedigree just kind of blew my mind.

James Lipton has really stepped it up on this season of Actors Studio. If you can catch this ep on Bravo, do it. It just finished and I said to Crash, "I've seen more animation from this one hour with January Jones then I've seen in the entire body of her work".

Seriously, watch it.
