The
sixth season finale of the Emmy-winning drama "Mad Men" was
watched by 2.7 million viewers, matching last season's record high,
as the AMC period-advertising series wrapped up a season of change
for lead ad man Don Draper.
U.S.
cable channel AMC said on Monday that the finale to the 13-episode
season was the network's highest rated, citing a 5 percent growth in
its share of television viewers this year.
While
the overall viewership was stable, there was a drop in viewers within
the 25-54 age demographic coveted by advertisers, with 1.3 million
viewers, down from 2012's 1.4 million viewers.
Enigmaticadvertising executive Draper, played by Jon Hamm, faced his biggest
challenges this season as he grappled with late 1960s cultural
changes, as well as drifting apart from his wife as he engaged in a
steamy affair with a married neighbor.
In
the finale, Draper finds himself unraveling at the seams as he tries
to counter his excessive drinking, a suspension from his firm by his
partners and efforts to come to terms with his own identity.
The
episode ends with Draper taking his three children to the brothel
where he grew up.
"Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner said in recent interviews that
season seven, scheduled to air in 2014, will be the final one of the
series.
The
drama is a strong player during Hollywood's awards season, often
taking top television honors for its cast and creators at both the
Emmys and Golden Globes.
"MadMen" is produced by Lionsgate Television, a division of Lions
Gate Entertainment Corp. AMC cable channel is a unit of AMC NetworksInc..
