Don Draper may not say things like "fabulosity," but the 25-year-old Jon Hamm did.
The 43-year-old "Mad Men" actor was a contestant on a dating show called "The Big Date" in 1996 and the flashback footage of the episode made the rounds on YouTube Friday.
Hamm, who was a waiter at the time, can be seen competing for the affection of Mary, a 25-year-old computer animations student.
Lighthearted Entertainment via YouTube There was something about Mary, but it just wasn't for the 25-year-old Jon Hamm.

Lighthearted Entertainment via YouTube Jon Hamm seen here trying to impress Mary a '90s dating show.
EnlargeMary was looking to settle down with "a sexy, hot man who is honest and knows how to give a good foot massage."
Fair enough.
Hamm was sporting quite the '90s hairdo and when asked by the host how he'd make a lady feel special on a first date, he said, "I'd start out with some fabulous food, fabulous conversation, a fabulous foot massage for an evening of total fabulosity."
Sadly for Hamm, Mary was not-so-fabulously impressed and picked a stuntman over the now Hollywood hunk.
Guest No. 2 on the show, Shonia, also passed on going out with Hamm and chose the blond finance candidate instead.
Luckily for Hamm, his love life and a career in show business significantly took off post this dating show disaster.
Hamm has been in a longtime relationship with actress Jennifer Westfeldt for the last 17 years.
The final season of "Mad Men" premieres Sunday, April 13 at 10 PM on AMC.
