Mad Men fans put your hands together because we have an announcement for you! Well actually Jon Hamm, one of the lead actors of the popular AMC series prematurely made the announcement, but now that it has been confirmed I will share it with you. Yes, it’s the long awaited season 5 premiere date, are you ready…. March 25th!!
Last weekend Hamm, who plays Don Draper in the popular series let the date slip during a podcast interview, oops! After a few days though, AMC confirmed what Hamm had accidentally revealed and announced the popular series will finally return on March 25. They added fans can expect the premiere to be two-hour episode in which Matthew Weiner, the series creator wrote. Jennifer Getzinger directed the premiere episode, she also directed the popular episode “The Suitcase” in season 4.
It’s been a long time waiting for this announcement and we still have two more months until we can actually watch it. Season 4 came to a close in October of 2010, so it’s been over a year of playing this waiting game. It’s been no secret what caused the delay, as Weiner Lionsgate and AMC participated in a lengthy contract renegotiation. When the dust finally settled Mad Men fans were given the assurance of three more seasons, with Weiner concluding that season 7 will be the final season for the series.
Let’s not focus on the end right now though, it’s time celebrate! Here’s hoping more sneak peaks are revealed or teasers are slipped in the upcoming months as we begin the countdown for March 25. Have you marked your calendar?
