I truly believe this show will live on into history and be watched for history. Without doubt about the best written, character development, acted, filmed show ever done.
I think I could watch Jon Hamm all day, as he's sitting on a couch looking slightly rumpled and deep in thought. The only man who can be sexier than Don Draper is Jon Hamm.
Not saying this is good or bad, but when Jon Hamm gives interviews, Don Draper seems to completely disappear. On the other hand when Elisabeth Moss is speaking, I do feel like I'm watching Peggy from Mad Men.
Don Draper's character is funny. He loves control, doesn't ask, just does and waits for others reactions. But he's successful. People love him for being right, but hate him for being right as well. One of the most complex characters in the history of television.
Beauty is not the end-all and be-all. The Mad Men stylists certainly know how to make someone look good - look at January Jones, Christina Hendricks, most of the other actresses playing secretaries, Don's love interests etc. Peggy is not supposed to be that, and Peggy's styling is clearly a very deliberate choice to convey her personality and where she is in her life. They're telling a story visually.
@@pedroaraujo1054 the shows basic theme at its core is happiness and the ways we as humans use consumerism through media, sex, money, marriage etc etc to fill that void in us. The backdrop is 60s America but it's also very much about how humans cope
Watched Mad Men first season it came out, liked it, but got busy and let it go...revisited it this summer and have watched all but the last 7 episodes, have been addicted.....I spent four years on Madison Ave in the early 80's when I first graduated with my business degree, it wasn't all that different from the 60's, I could relate to so much and it really took me back...Such a sensational show, the acting is amazing!
11:53 No. One of the best things in this show is that they just show you how the things are and leave no comment on it, so it's for the viewer to form an opinion. Otherwise it wouldn't be eatable. I like when authors treat their audience like that.
There has never been a better more compelling exposition of the irony and hypocracy gauranteed by the unquestioned sexual double standards of the 50s and 60s.
Oh my God! These dialogues, it's like a typical boss yelling and telling his subordinate how thankless she is and why she should be grateful because she was nothing when she was given an opportunity by him to work for this agency. SO SO TRUE and typical of bosses!
Just binged mad men for the third time since it ended in 2015. I find something new each time I watch it. My favorite characters are Peter, Betty and Roger. I just love the fashion of the 60’s.
Such great framing and detailed videography of two of my favorite characters ever…or no, that was my perception after first watching-then I realized when looking back, it's just all about these two personalities and the way they interact and support.
You wish you could be in Don's place, but then you don't want because of the sad things keep happening in his life. But you say to yourself wish I was in his place so I could take different action, but then again it's all speculation.... Whatever happened in Don's life had to happen.
I think that the Peggy character is so important in this series because the timeline is going from well before the modern feminist era to right in the middle of it. I think that the series deals with this quite well although in the interview, I'm not sure that Elizabeth truly understands how forward Peggy really was. Looking back from the 2010's to the 1960's is 50 years and we've come a helluva long way even though there is more to go clearly. But, the 60's is within living memory for most boomers and for children of the 80's and 90's it was really another world imo.
John Hamm is so humble in this interview. He became a huge star (and boy, so well deserved). So is the case with Elizabeth Moth. The casting is genius in the show. These actors are so where they’re supposed to be, it gives you chill and inspiration.
By FAR, AMC is the ONLY network worth watching! All of their shows, Mad Men, Walking dead etc are fantastic! In a world of reality show crap, you guys give us great television.Thank you for all of your great work. It is truly appreciated.

XxMyLameUserNamexX It's a way to express the human condition. We are never satisfied (in fact, Don say this in his diary "When a man walks into a room"). Don cheats because it's his way to externalize his dissatisfaction. But reading other comments, maybe he cheats because he likes to be wanted, because his parents doesn't paid attention to him when he was a kid. That's the beauty of this show, the characters are so complex... their actions can be interpreted from various perspectives.
XxMyLameUserNamexX Well it's crystal clear that he's not happily married, and neither is his wife! He doesn't love his wife at all. So I guess you are a bit wrong.
In this show everything is excelent. Casting, cloths small.objects like pecils mugs furniture .kitchen etc every single detalj is so perfect. All of them has some caracter. Finaly show brineš you in really age of sixties. Jon Hamm is perfrct in show he looks like he just jump from.some Hitchcock movie .
2:32 This makes Don sounds like a jerk but he does recognize the talents and works that his co-workers/subodinates does. He does value and respect Peggy and Pete much more in season 7 compare to season 1.
he;s completely right, mad men is one of the best written shows on television right now, none of my friends get why i watch it and it;s like besides how well it;s written it;s jon fracking hamm!!!
I think the concept and characters are so well written that I always care about what happens to them in Mad Men! Sometimes the script takes me out of it! But it also uses dream and fantasy logic even if some of the scenes seem superficially unrealistic!
@superfest18 Matthew Weiner has said in a few interviews that "7 Seasons seems like enough" - he wants to round the series off and end it in a safe and succinct way around 1970 (just go through the 60's). I think it's smart. If you read all the interviews he already kinda has an ending in mind as well (spoiler alert). I probably would not want to see more than seven or eight seasons... seems appropriate.
The thing is that looking jon every expression reminded us more n more of Don... I don't know, if it's good thing for an actor or not... But Don is kinda character, you never ever wanted him to go away.... Infact both Elizabeth and Jon are as natural as one can be... That's the beauty of it, I Guess...
Not to beat it down, but, yeah, everyone in that show is exactly perfect except Jones. Ugh. I can see a better actress showing so much more of Betty's arrested development and neglect.
@KAAllitt I thought the exact same thing. I think it's a good thing. It shows that no matter who the actors really are, they are able to embody their characters completely and perfectly. Good observation.
Or they should get emmys for deliberately making her look her look the way her character was supposed to look in season 1: A girl from Brooklyn who needs a make-over.
Loved this show, however some of Don's love interests seemed awkward, boring and just plain weird. Midge the artist soon to be heroin addict. Bobbie Barrett, seemed too old for Don and too used up. Sally's timid, passive aggressive third grade teacher. Dr. Faye Miller the career woman who seems modern and independent yet she wishes to be a Betty. Meghan, the young naive girl who Don thinks that she's the one to solve all his problems, she's young enough so Don won't want to cheat, she will stay at home, go to work with him, be the babysitter cook, clean....until that is when she wants to become independent of him, be an actress...he turns to his neighbor Sylvia Rosen, perhaps the worst cringe worthy, ill fitting story line ever. Oh, I forgot the waitress....really Don?
At one point near the end Elisabeth says they do bad things, but they’re not bad people. I think you could argue Don during certain periods is a bad person based on the totality of his hedonistic conquests and there destructive consequences no mattter how sympathetic we are in the basis of his childhood traumas.
I started watching the show, and fell in love with it, the fashion the style the story... EVERYTHING! But netflix took it down and couldn’t even watch the first season... but I’m definitely going to find it somewhere even tho i already know the ending LMAO... and the fact than John calls her Lizzy is so cuteee
I can't believe they're not actually Peggy and Don
Thats how you know it was a great performance by great actors.
How dare they
that's because you're daft
I truly believe this show will live on into history and be watched for history. Without doubt about the best written, character development, acted, filmed show ever done.
I totally agree! Mad men is completely different from any other show.
Mad men is my FAVORITE. Ive rewatched it 4 times on Netflix. I don't love the ending but I love how they incorporated historical events.

I love that he calls her "Lizzy." Amazing characters, incredible show. This will be the best 7 seasons of television ever.
got hooked on Netflix showing until June 10th got 30 more episodes to get through. Jon Hamm should be the next James Bond!
Same thing happened to me. Prime has season for like 5 bucks each
Same here man .... I was barely able to finish the last season the day before on June 9th!!
He's not Scottish.
Elisabeth Moss is so cute !!

A show about the 'human condition'
There's not human condition, its a show about capitalism in the 60s

It’s called the casting couch ;)
🗣„:first i need a cigarette and an old fashioned!"🚬🤩🥃
The AMC was like "oh we need more shows? lets write Mad Men, Breaking Bad and adapt TWD and fuck every other channel"
2020, pandemic, lots of problems in the elections, i think the next decade it's going to be full of big events like the 60's.

She looks so much different without those horrible wigs/hairstyles.
It's kinda fun seeing the way sexy Jon Hamm fiddles & picks with his fingers as Lizzy talks

Jon Hamm should play James Bond.
Liz is the best, I'm glad I got to see this interview cause we dont get to see enough of her.
excellent, excellent interview
One of my favorite actors and I love his deep voice 😍😩
Wow, Peggy is hot in real life!

A good sequel would be Don Draper's life in the 80s.
Just an episode of Don's end of career would be great.
Every actor on that show appears to either be ridiculously smart and/or attractive.
It’s so weird looking at celebrities knowing they’re Scientologists

I first saw "Mad Men" on the Oprah Winfrey show. It was about the 1960's. I bought the 1st season on DVD and I was hooked ever since.
ahh season 5 is great, to the future!
Legend has it .Jon Hamm was drinking undistilled vodka out of that glass .
the dam cigs are killing his delightful voice
sad
I'm always looking for an interview that explains why Don cheats. Am I wrong for thinking that he loves his wife and is happily married?
Desire to be wanted, since he wasn't even wanted by his own father, then step-mother.
Don is a narcissist. Probably has the narcissistic personality disorder too. Narcissists are known to cheat.
XxMyLameUserNamexX It's a way to express the human condition. We are never satisfied (in fact, Don say this in his diary "When a man walks into a room").

@geoffduck87 yes true it would be good move to cut it at 7 seasons. But i love it so much ! i will get so depressed when it finishes
Let's just say when he means "we all took a risk" he means the company that made madmen because there's no doubt they took a risk doing madmen.
"Put me in, coach."
Love Mad Men, but AMC wasn't as obscure as Jon Hamm says when the show started. It just had a very different format.

“Rootable”, John? There is no such word in the English language.
amen to that, however big the pile of money is they're swimming in right now, it's completely deserved
@geoffduck87 what do you mean 7 seasons have the announced that they will only be doing 7
It's kind of their job week to week to earn a paycheck being articulate though man. lol.
A once in a life time time piece of a generation . It exposes the human condition and all its frailty and hope for the future.
