With the final season of AMC original drama "Mad Men" on the horizon, fans are eager to know what will become of Don Drapper, his family, and the rest of the cast. To find out some hints and clues about the last season of "Mad Men," read on, but be cautious of spoilers.

"I am a person that does one thing at a time. And right now, I have a new challenge, which is how to end the show, so that is occupying my time," he said.
Weiner also admitted that he could have ended the show with Don taking his children to see his childhood home, as it represents such character development for Don. But Weiner used that event in the last episode of season six. He has something else in mind for the end of "Mad Men."
"I do have a different idea for the end of the series, but I'll tell you, now that I'm at the bottom of the mountain looking up there, I have thought, 'Wow, you idiot! You could have walked away from there.' But it's an honor to have a challenge like this," he explained.
"And I love that 78 episodes into the series, people are telling me that they think that was the best episode of the show. How did that happen? I am lucky to have an audience that is invested. For me, the real pressure is living up to what those people expect. I do have an ending that is different than that, and hopefully when the series will be over, they will see it as another step in [Don's] development," he added.
