It’s been nine years since the [first episode](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1059578/) of _Mad Men_ aired on July 19, 2007\. After Peggy’s first day at the office, the world spent eight years watching the snappy dressers learn, grow and pretend to embrace a computer. When _Mad Men_ ended in May 2015, Don was working out his daddy issues in a totally characteristic yoga position, and then fans had to say goodbye to one of the most [influential fake companies](http://time.com/4351022/influential-fake-companies/) of all time to the tune of Roger Sterling, company funeral pianist.

Nothing can fill the _Mad Men_\-sized hole in your heart except getting the whole ensemble together for a reunion to make people feel beautiful things about [beans](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYxl-DJ9CEs) again. But since the show ended, the cast has been keeping busy. So where can you find Vincent Kartheiser’s self-satisfied smirk these days? What about the beautiful furious face Christina Hendricks makes when she’s literally can’t?

To celebrate the anniversary of the groundbreaking series that gave you a highly stimulated [tap-dancing Ken Cosgrove in an eye patch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6nDsLx98SI), here’s what the cast members of _Mad Men_ are up to now.

**Jon Hamm**

![mad men jon hamm](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6347f6e1b8b4a39e/69889c8cfb4eaca11888e575/jon-hamm.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Craig Blankenhorn—AMC; Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic

The man is famous for staring into nothing and saying it all. After [winning an Emmy](http://time.com/3757903/jon-hamm-don-draper-rehab/) for his performance as the lost soul, he’s played an extremely charming, extremely bizarre life ruiner in _Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt_, a stone cold assassin in _Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp_ and McCormick on _Angie Tribeca_. Hamm will also be hamming it up in _Absolutely Fabulous the Movie_, and the sci-fi film _Marjorie Prime_.

**January Jones**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltfba14d5f71a07eea/69889c8f5f570f8865b21c3c/january-jones.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Doug Hyun—AMC; FOX/Getty Images

Since she played the highly meme-able quote machine Betty Draper, January Jones has starred as Melissa Shart, a plucky survivor who wears wacky boots on the post-apocalyptic sitcom _The Last Man on Earth_. Fans will remember her iconic [_Mad Men_ “Shoot!” episode](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltl0EQ9O7Gg). You know, the one when Betty pretends like everything’s all good and then takes aim at her neighbor’s birds with housewife rage fire in her eyes. Betty fans would be pleased to see Jones recently recreate that moment when she gunned down a drone on the post-apocalyptic series. Jones also briefly cameoed in a [celebrity-packed climate change parody](http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/f915f908cc/climate-change-deniers-anthem?%5Fcc=%5F%5Fd%5F%5F%5F&%5Fccid=44703fcb-70df-4f50-af92-bee4d7fef2d7).


**Christina Hendricks**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt635b5c2641c4a884/69889c90e20a87e431a91a60/christina-hendricks.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Doug Hyun—AMC; Comedy Central

Miss your old competence spirit animal? Watch Hendricks as “Chair” on the _Downton Abbey_\-style reality show parody _Another Period_. Just like Joan, her character rises quickly. The versatile actor also joined the cast of _Hap and Leonard_ as Trudy Fawst, and appeared in [_The Neon Demon_](http://time.com/4380107/review-the-neon-demon/) as Roberta Hoffmann. This Christmas, the class act will join the cast of _Bad Santa 2_ as Diane.

**Elisabeth Moss**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt27498aa33ebc98d9/69889c8ebc6cfc0e2d3dddba/elisabeth-moss.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Craig Blankenhorn—AMC; Parisa Taghizadeh—Sundance Channel


During Mad Men’s heydey, Moss became a lightning rod for rich roles. She starred with Mark Duplass in _The One I Love_ and as the tormented cop on the bleak series _Top of the Lake_. Her first project after _Mad Men_ was playing the title role in the Broadway show _The Heidi Chronicles_ about a feminist historian. Busy actor that she is, she’ll be in _The Seagull_ as Masha, _The Bleeder_ as Phyllis and _Mad to Be Normal_ as Angie Wood.

**Vincent Kartheiser**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltccd3768c077d0166/69889c8e656a3ff1dfbcc573/vincent-kartheiser.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Carin Baer—AMC; Paul Archuleta—FilmMagic/Getty Images

_Mad Men_ didn’t hate anyone more than Pete Campbell with his near-constant ego crisis. That is, until the account man redeemed himself by grimacing less. On the drama, Campbell was always blathering on about how his ancestors came to America on the Mayflower, so it’s on point that Kartheiser stepped into the buckle shoes of actual Pilgrim William Bradford during Mayflower times for the miniseries _Saints and Strangers_. Real fans will recognize him under the beard, and lately, retro gigs are still his bag. He’ll also have a part in _The Most Hated Woman in America_, a 1960s biopic about Madalyn O’Hair, the atheist who got the Supreme Court to remove prayer from public schools.


**Kiernan Shipka**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9f9a0c5a2a4777cb/69889c8efb4eac9d7288e57d/kiernan-shipka.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Carin Baer—AMC; Amanda Edwards—WireImage/Getty Images

_Mad Men_ creator Matthew Weiner teased us with a [spinoff show](http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2015/09/mad-men-finale-betty-don) about ’70s truth bomb dropper Sally Draper, but if that’s really in the works, it’s a secret. Since mastering the counterculture eye roll and mingling with basics in ’60s-land, Shipka has become one of the show’s biggest _Mad Men_\-born stars. She’s landed movie roles as Kat in the horror thriller _February_ and the lead role as Telulah Farrow in the totally punk millennial comedy _Fan Girl_.

**Jessica Paré**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf5096d3db59e4304/69889c8dfb4eac7e9388e579/jessica-pare.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Michael Yarish—AMC; Kerry Brown—Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation


How can you live life without Megan Draper, the hostess ballsy enough to cast herself in an apartment party birthday dance for her husband with “[Zou Bisou Bisou](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXoILGnHnvM)“? Start with _Brooklyn_ where Paré played a too-small role as a department store boss. Lately, she’s supplying her old school elegance as Ash Wolf to Amazon’s pilot _The Interestings_, based on Meg Wolitzer’s novel of the same name.

**John Slattery**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd35949cfd27cab16/69889c8d5f570fba1ab21c33/john-slattery.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Craig Blankenhorn—AMC; Lacey Terrell—HBO

The slick actor was already well-known before he ever was Roger Sterling, the office’s amusing MVP. Post-_Mad Men_, Slattery’s been slathering himself all over the place. Howard Stark in _Captian America: Civil War_!, Ben Bradlee Jr. in _Spotlight_! and showing off more of his French accent in _Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp_ as Claude Dumet! _Veep_! If no one at your place of business has adopted you for morning martinis, you could always read Sterling’s fake memoir [_Sterling’s Gold_](https://www.amazon.com/Sterlings-Gold-Wit-Wisdom-Man/dp/0802119891/?tag=timecom-20) for more Sterling-ism’s.


**Rich Sommer**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7b75c0a0cdd72218/69889c8c428a9e669ccd37a1/rich-sommer.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Carin Baer—AMC; Jim Spellman—WireImage/Getty Images

Sommer played Harry Crane, head of media and the cringiest guy ever to try to befriend Don Draper. Life after Madison Avenue has included a role in the Netflix sequel _Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp_ like a bunch of other _Mad Men_ cast members. He also played supporting roles on _Grey’s Anatomy_ and the hipster Judd Apatow series _Love_. Soon, he’s scheduled to appear in the series _Girlfriend’s Day_ and as Pierre Salinger in the drama _LBJ_.

**Aaron Staton**

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt239ed77e4b1be40b/69889c8c428a9eadfecd379d/aaron-stanton.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Jessica Brooks—AMC; Ben Pruchnie—Getty Images


Staton played Kenneth Cosgrove, the dude who made being a mad man look so easy, acing his accounts by day, writing epic fiction by night until his character finally got miserable enough for the office. Once he was done with the show, Stanton took on a slew of kind man characters in TV series like _Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce_, _Ray Donovan_ and soon, he’ll tackle the part of Captain Ronald Dreyfuss in _My Mother and Other Strangers_.

**Jay R. Ferguson** 

![mad men](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt82eeaa7cd57b9c81/69889c8dcf40a80146c440cf/jay-r-ferguson.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Michael Yarish—AMC; Byron Cohen—Universal Television/NBCU Photo Bank/Getty Images

On _Mad Men_, the artist character Stan Rizzo took us from self-important wise guy and dropped us right off at sane and grounded hero when the show came to an end. Without a doubt, being a good guy suits him, and since his life after wooing Peggy Olsen, he’s starred as an accommodating boyfriend on _The Mindy Project_, and as a sweetheart of a cop in _A Standup Guy_.
