Tonight is the series finale of Mad Men. The hit AMC series is widely considered to be one of the greatest shows of all time, and for good reason. Recently, Don Draper himself, Jon Hamm opened up about his idea for a Sally Draper (Kiernan Shipka) spin-off.
The official plot synopsis for tonight’s series finale of Mad Men, titled “Person to Person,” briefly reads:
“The stories of Don Draper, his family and his coworkers come to an end in the series finale.”
Recently during a Farewell to Mad Men panel event, Jon Hamm spoke to Variety about the possibility of a Mad Men spin-off (via Vanity Fair):
“I think people will find when they watch tonight’s episode that the story is complete and so I think that the idea of a sequel or a prequel or an origin story or whatever longer time spent on these characters . . . I think it would be less fulfilling somehow.”
However, Hamm did add that if there was going to be a spin-off it would be about his on-screen daughter, Sally Draper:
“We want to watch Sally grow up and live through the 70s and turn into a rockstar and turn into, like, Joan Jett or something. You know, ride a motorcycle and kill a guy and make a bunch of money and become Oliver Stone in the 80s and then date Kurt Cobain in the 90s because she’s just so cool and she’s a touchstone for every generation. I mean, yeah, I’d watch that show. I think everyone would watch that show. Sally Through the Decades.”
