How many seasons did Mad Men run?

Mad Men ran for seven seasons, airing from July 19, 2007, through May 17, 2015. The AMC period drama follows Don Draper and the evolving staff of New York advertising agencies from 1960 into the early 1970s.

Across its run, the series produced 92 episodes. Most seasons contain 13 episodes, while the seventh and final season contains 14 episodes and was divided into two seven-episode parts. The first half aired in 2014, and the concluding half aired in 2015.

The seven-season structure allowed the story to track major cultural and business changes, including the decline of traditional office hierarchies, shifting gender expectations, political upheaval, and the transformation of advertising. The timeline stretches from March 1960 to November 1970.

A common point of confusion is the split final season. It is still one season—Season 7—not an eighth season. The show concluded with its acclaimed finale, “Person to Person,” after seven seasons and nearly eight years of broadcast history.
