Mad Men creator Mathew Weiner confirmed with Deadline this morning that the AMC show will end with its seventh season in 2015.

While the show has had a long, respected run, Weiner also told Deadline that he has no intention of developing a Mad Men spin-off, which in this day and age is rather rare for a program that has garnered so much success and such a wide following.

"I'm writing the finale today as I was yesterday," said Weiner, "and it's set in stone."

While fans would quickly latch on to a spin-off, audiences could really expect nothing less than a dignified farewell from Weiner and the Mad Men team.

"You don't have to reverse engineer it [shows] to appeal to the entire world and still have a financially successful model," Weiner explained. With the popularity of recent genre television such as The Walking Dead on AMC and HBO's Game of Thrones it seems that Weiner is right.

Mad Men's mid-season finale, entitled Waterloo, aired on Sunday, the highlights of which include a moon landing and the death of Robert Morse's Bert Cooper. Death was not the end though for Bert, who had one last scene drawn from Don Draper's (Jon Hamm) mind via a memorable song and dance. In this sequence, Morse sings The Best Things in Life Are Free, accompanied of course by a few secretaries.

The show is slated to return at the beginning of next year, finishing with the series finale.
