The Daily Beast: "Mad Men, Laid Bare"

Written by Jace | Tuesday, November 10, 2009 | 2 comments »

Curious to hear what the creator of Mad Men has to say about Sunday night's season finale? You're in the right place.

I was extremely lucky to have the opportunity to conduct an exclusive interview with Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner about the third season finale of the AMC period drama and take a look at the third season as a whole.

You can read my extremely illuminating interview with Matt Weiner, entitled "Mad Men, Laid Bare," over at The Daily Beast, where he discusses the end of the Drapers’ marriage and Sterling Cooper, new beginnings for Don and Betty, the Kennedy assassination, and real-life figure Conrad Hilton, among other topics.

(There was a lot of fascinating information that unfortunately didn't make it into the final Q&A due to length, so apologies if some topics of interest didn't get touched upon.)

Let me know what you think and head over to the comments section to discuss.

    Fantastic interview! You asked all the questions that I wanted to know the answers to! I'm glad that Matthew Weiner was brave enough to do away with Sterling Cooper and also to end Don and Betty's marriage. That takes guts and shows that he is a truly gifted storyteller!
