Speaking of masculine locations, there couldn’t be a more perfect place to celebrate the finale of “Mad Men”’s fourth season than New York City’s storied 21 Club. And why is it that Don Draper comes to mind when one thinks of the ultimate bachelor? Well, spoiler alert—his short-lived singlehood is over.
The crowd at the exclusive event marking the end of another award-winning season went absolutely nuts when Don proposed to Megan.
In the old-school environment of the 80-year-old 21 Club, with its white-jacketed waiters, perfectly set silverware at every place setting and red rose centerpieces, you half expected to see a toasted Roger Sterling make a scene before stumbling out into the night.
As it was, a dashing Jon Hamm worked the crowd, as did co-stars Elisabeth Moss and Christina Hendricks. But they don’t know when they’ll be working again. The show doesn’t have an official pick-up date, although there’s no doubt it will be. Meaning Mad Men fans will be left waiting, and wondering, how it will all turn out, while this we know: Don Draper has cemented his place as one of the most enigmatic characters in television history.
21 Club, 21 West 52nd Street, New York, (212) 582-7200
