Not that I care for awards much, but if Hamm doesn’t get an Emmy for Best Actor, there is really something wrong.

Agreed. The scene near the end where he just collapsed physically and mentally was stunning (right after he hung up with Peggy).

I didn't get interested until the last month. I thought the final episode was a snoozer for most of it...I don't get into nuance too much anymore.

I hung in there for all 7 seasons of Sons of Anarchy. Kurt Sutter did a better job of tying up the loose ends. The ending for Mad Men was perfect for all the people that lived and died with the show for its entirety.

Mad Men is one of those shows where you pretty much have to watch from start to finish, it’s like a novel. There are a lot of references to things in earlier episodes, that if you missed it, you won’t have the context for them.

We had never seen any of the episodes before but a relative visiting watched it so we caught the last two.

I was impressed by the actress playing the ex wife Betty who had just been notified of her lung cancer.
Its was a little too realistic and her final scene with her ex was brutal but very realistic.
