‘Mad Men’ Season 7 Premiere: Final Episodes Of AMC Show Are 'Heartbreaking,' Says Christina Hendricks? [VIDEO]
The Mad Men cast and fans alike are prime examples of the idea that letting go can sometimes be hard to do. On Wednesday, AMC premiered the first episode of the last season for its hit period drama series at LA's 14-screen multiplex, ArcLight Hollywood, and reportedly the crew was reluctant to part ways.

The show has been revolutionary not only for television, but also for some of the actor's careers. On Thursday, Variety dished on season 7 and noted, "AMC's Mad Men has reinvented television and made household names out of stars like Jon Hamm." Hamm, who plays the main character on the show, Don Draper, was a relatively unknown name prior to landing this role. In 2008, the actor's performance garnered him a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Drama Series.
Additionally, the fashion statements seen on the show are seemingly so infectious, that they have carried over into the real lives of the cast and fans. "The show has had a considerable impact on fans' personal wardrobes and home décor - something that even the cast hasn't been able to escape off screen," told Variety.
