In a recent interview with GQ, Seinfeld named ‘Mad Men’ as the series with the greatest final moment he has ever witnessed. ‘Mad Men,’ which concluded in 2015, has been widely praised for its poignant and thought-provoking ending.
Seinfeld, who has had his fair share of memorable finales with ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm,’ expressed his admiration for ‘Mad Men’s’ satisfying and humorous resolution. He specifically mentioned the show’s iconic final shot of Don Draper, which he described as both a moment of spiritual enlightenment and creative reawakening.
While fans of ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ may have expected Seinfeld to choose one of his own creations, his appreciation for ‘Mad Men’s’ finale highlights the show’s enduring impact and critical acclaim.
In addition to ‘Mad Men,’ Seinfeld also acknowledged the acclaimed finales of ‘The Bob Newhart Show’ and ‘The Mary Tyler Moore Show.’ However, he ultimately declared ‘Mad Men’ as the superior ending in his opinion. This revelation is sure to spark discussions among fans of television and will likely lead to renewed appreciation for one of the most beloved and critically lauded series of all time.
