Great characters but not so great role models.

James Gandolfini Aka 'Tony Soprano' Attacks the paparazzi for filming him trick or treating with his son

Bryan Cranston's Walter White and James Gandolfini's Tony Soprano are the most common names that come to mind when it comes to the most iconic characters that grace the realm of television. However, most would agree that while these two are some of the most well-written characters the medium has to offer, they aren't exactly the most prominent people to idolize.

But these characters are often misunderstood by a not so small part of the fandom and similar was also the case with one of Jon Hamm's most iconic roles.

While Jon Hamm has maintained quite an exquisite filmography, which includes the likes of Baby Driver and Top Gun: Maverick, one of his most iconic performances remains his time as Don Draper. But while most would agree that the writing for the character and Mad Men in general was impeccable, Draper isn't quite the paragon of masculinity that some thought him to be.
