"Three Glorious Dummies Bumbling Through Life": Jon Hamm Reveals Shocking Reason Southern Charm Is His Favorite Reality Show

In an interview with W Magazine, Jon was asked if he has a favorite reality show, and he responded, "Right now, it's Southern Charm. I really like it, mostly because it's about the guys, and most reality shows are about the women. Southern Charm is about these three dumba**, glorious dummies bumbling through life. You want to hit them in the head and also give them a hug and tell them everything's going to be okay. They're all younger than me. Watching them stumble reminds me of a lot of dumb s** I did. So, it’s like, oh God!"

Kathryn Dennis left Southern Charm. She was integral to the series for many years, but long-time viewers will never forget her.

In addition, Jon is very invested in Southern Charm, and he's spoken publicly about the show before. During Andy Cohen's CNN New Year’s Eve broadcast, he called the end of Craig and Paige DeSorbo's relationship the end of an era. He's clearly a huge fan of the show, and he cares a lot about the people on it.

Our Take On Jon Hamm Calling Southern Charm Men "Glorious Dummies"

Imperfect People Is What Makes Reality TV So Great

Jon's description of the Southern Charm men as "glorious dummies," sums up reality TV in general. As Jon said, sometimes it can be so frustrating to watch people make mistakes on reality TV shows, but that's what makes them endearing and makes fans feel protective of them. Viewers like Jon can relate to them doing dumb things because everyone makes mistakes in life. Unlike scripted TV, reality TV often has no filter, and therefore it's made up of real and raw moments in its stars' lives.
