Mad Men's fifth season still isn't confirmed
AMC likes Mad Men, viewers and critics like Mad Men, creator Matthew Weiner likes Mad Men—and yet somehow this mutual lovefest has not resulted in an official fifth season, with Weiner telling Entertainment Weekly that he’s yet to even begin working while contract details are still being hammered out between AMC and production company Lionsgate. Although network executives said earlier this month that the plan was to “definitely” bring the show back, Weiner says he still doesn’t have a deal yet, and furthermore has no idea when he will—although he insists that he’s not looking to move on, saying, “I have every intention of making the show when they decide to work out their business with Lionsgate. I can’t wait to come back to work. I have said over and over in public that I want the show to go on and on and on until it has worn out its welcome with viewers and we can’t think of anything more for the characters to do.”
