What is the title of the series finale of Mad Men?

The story behind the answer

The title of the series finale of Mad Men is “Person to Person.” It is the fourteenth episode of the seventh season and the 92nd episode overall, concluding the series on May 17, 2015.

Written and directed by creator Matthew Weiner, the finale follows Don Draper after he leaves the advertising world and travels west. He reconnects with Stephanie, struggles with Betty’s illness, and eventually finds an unexpected sense of connection at a California retreat.

The episode also resolves several major character arcs. Peggy and Stan begin a relationship, Joan establishes her own production company, Roger marries Marie, and Pete leaves New York with Trudy and their daughter. The closing sequence shows Don meditating before the famous Coca-Cola advertising idea appears, linking his personal experience to his professional talent.

A common mix-up is confusing the finale with “The Milk and Honey Route,” the episode immediately before it. “Tomorrowland” is the season-six finale, while “The End of an Era” is not a Mad Men episode title.
