Is the cast on the panel? I'd love to watch it from when it started.

they were earlier

Matt Weiner and co giving some interesting insights here.

 

[Steelyuhas]

Not ready for this to end, send help. :|

 

[Dany]

Yeah this is a really cool, love to watch it from the beginning

 

[slightconfuse]

Only a few hours. Not ready friends

 

[Nameless]

Since we probably won't get to see Robert The Great again:

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Lol yesssssss weiner talks about his love for 90s actors.

 

[JCizzle]

Don getting arrested is the finale I bet, showed it an episode early just to troll.

 

[kevin1025]

Since we probably won't get to see Robert The Great again:

Bob Benson spinoff, Not Great, Bob! I'd watch.

Pete has some of the best lines of the series, along with Peggy's misadventures and reactions. My favorite Pete line, though: "she loved the sea..."

 

[Opto]

Put this on my finale wish list. Someone decks Harry Crane.

 

[Mr. Saturn]

Don getting arrested is the finale I bet, showed it an episode early just to troll.

You think so? I don't know, I think the dream at the beginning of the most recent episode was less about foreshadowing Don's arrest (though I could be full of shit on this issue) and it was more about showing the audience that Don still thinks about what he did stealing that man's life, which is why he gave his car to that kid at the end.

Don probably feels like that car was the vestige of his stolen life which is why he gave it to that kid and looked more relaxed than he's been in a long time at least in my opinion. I do wonder though how would Don even be caught at this point?

Someone from the VFW maybe, I mean there are several people now who know Don's secret but none of them have been pushed to the point of wanting to destroy his life, so its hard to imagine what would change suddenly.

For what it's worth I think of the whole Don/Dick thing not in terms of the plot i.e. will Don be caught or not but more in terms of his character and what it means to change and be yourself and whether he can find contentment in his life, and I think him giving up his car and everything else he's lost this season were all steps towards that, even if he didn't realize it at first.

 

[Robot Pants]

Don dies of old age.

Don dies of lung cancer.

 

[lastflowers]

The last episode is purely a flashback of his first day at sterling-cooper

 

[f0rk]

I think my favorite comedic line is "The doctor said he'll never golf again"

That whole episode is one of the funniest

 

[DarkKyo]

Hamm is way too old at this point to play a Don that young.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

I got the perfect quote for when the episode ends.

"He'd been rehearsing that line all night."

 

[Dion Blaster]

Hamm is way too old at this point to play a Don that young.

That's why they shot it six years ago!

 

[Kallor]

Hell of a birthday present for me.

The first show to introduce me to "great television" I remember renting the first season of Mad Men and Dexter at the same time, deciding to watch Mad Men first and just being sucked in immediately and sending Dexter back without ever watching an episode (in hindsight, I should'a kept it that way)

After that, the floodgates opened and my younger brother and I started watching The Sopranos, The Wire, Breaking Bad, Deadwood, Rome, The Shield all one after another. So much fun.

Super sad and hyped that this is ending tonight.

 

[lazybones18]

Don + Betty one last time ;_;

 

[littlegrasshopper]

I'm not ready for it to be over. I'M NOT READY!

 

[ClivePwned]

The anticipation...

 

[lastflowers]

Hamm is way too old at this point to play a Don that young.

haha, I was just kidding anyways...the entire idea was dumb. I didn't think about Don's age though, but that would make the finale even funnier.

 

[NoRéN]

Don dies of old age.

Don dies of lung cancer.

Don jumps off the building like in the opening credits.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Don buys a cat, some oranges, and dies of old age after falling out of a chair in a garden.

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

Don buys a cat, some oranges, and dies of old age after falling out of a chair in a garden.

That makes Sally Sonny, Bobby Fredo, and Gene Michael. OK.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

The anticipation...

#Dead

 

[IronRinn]

Can't believe tonight's the end.

 

[Nameless]

Don walks out into the sea like he did in S2, only this time he doesn't stop.

 

[VeryGooster]

 

[Cornballer]

 

[Dany]

Don goes to a church and greets everyone that has impacted his life while flashing back to him dying in the jungle next to Polly.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

How long we got? I'm in Australia and have to wait for it to pop up on Foxtel Go.

 

[Dion Blaster]

Don jumps off the building like in the opening credits.

Brilliant...no one would see it coming

 

[JCizzle]

I really wish this was a 2 hour starting at 9pm

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Don asks Betty, Sally, the kids and Glenn to meet him for dinner at a diner. Sally decides to drive herself and is the last to arrive...

 

[Dany]

How long we got? I'm in Australia and have to wait for it to pop up on Foxtel Go.

hour and half ;_;

 

[lazybones18]

That makes Sally Sonny, Bobby Fredo, and Gene Michael. OK.

Gene has Bobby killed? NOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Nameless]

[JaseMath]

Don jumps off the building like in the opening credits.

He did seem like he was testing the glass an episode back...

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Did they ever come out and say that Gene isn't Don's? Is it pretty much implied?

 

[Cornballer]

 

[VeryGooster]

The anticipation...

 

[Dany]

Don is shot on the streets by a kid who later reveals himself as Peggys son, blaming Don for everything.

 

[sooperkool]

Don is shot on the streets by a kid who later reveals himself as Peggys son, blaming Don for everything.

"Remember Me? Benny Olson from the bronx?"

 

[Kajiba]

Did they ever come out and say that Gene isn't Don's? Is it pretty much implied?

It's his son. She basically got pregnant when he and betty were at her parents house. Looking after her father when he got sick.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

I'll take a ban bet with anyone who actually thinks Don'll jump out a window at the end.

Perma if he's DB Cooper.

 

[Dany]

Don rides in a black Lincoln sitting next to Peggy leaving DC, she asks him what he is thinking. He responds "Tomorrow."

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Don was the name of Glen's childhood sled.

 

[wingwah]

I've always wanted an episode that explored how Don's life would have played out had he remained Dick Whitman (and not switching the dogtags). Maybe we'll see that tonight.

Either way, I think most of us are expecting something experimental á la Roger's LSD trip.

 

[ClivePwned]

How long we got? I'm in Australia and have to wait for it to pop up on Foxtel Go.

It's gonna show on Foxtel around 3:30pm Eastern time.

So yeah, gonna have to avoid this thread for a couple of hours after GoT shows.

vomit gifs on standby.

last wild prediction.

"I'm Donna Draper."

 

[Nameless]

Don is shot saving Ginsberg from a mental institution, stumbles back to the Time Life building where he collapses and dies with a smile in his old office.
