Is Elizabeth Moss done on Mad Men

[dr.strangelove]

In an interview, Jared Harris suggested that Peggy is gone for good, or at least as a regular.

I suspected as much. I bet we get a couple of appearances next season. Who knows.
I will be sorry to see her go if this is true.

1. I was wondering about that

I wouldn't be a bit surprised. Given the uncertainty during the last off-season, any actor would be wise to consider their options.

If she's gone then I hope she returns for guest appearances. I'm very interested in seeing where the Peggy story line goes.

2. Uncertainty is gone

AMC and Weiner agreed on a structure for the next 2 seasons, so that should not repeat itself, but with it being Hollywood anything can happen.

I am sure she will be back in some form, but I was hoping as a regular again. Maybe they will explain it this weekend.

3. If so, that's a real shame

Peggy is my favorite character on the show.

5. I think she'll be around some

In the season finale, my husband observed how much alike she and Don are. I think she'll continue to turn up at crucial moments for Don. Sort of like that creepy kid.

6. I'm wondering if they eventually get together

maybe by the end of season 7, when he's got all his philandering out of his system and he finally realizes what is important and that Peggy is the only woman that he really likes and respects.

7. I hope not

He will NEVER get his philandering out of his system.

8. That thought has crossed my mind, but she can do better!

Plus, I think he would want to keep her as one of the rare "pure" things in his life.

Speaking of pure and impure, what about his reaction to Joan's getting a partnership through prostitution? What an interesting parallel - single mother with an infant son.

4. Well, we got a little Peggy in the finale.

And that finale could serve as a series finale, by the way. I hope not. Don Draper needs to deal with a lot more, I think. And I think the series needs to get to the Apollo missions in time at the very least.

But I could see Peggy just being a Betty Francis-level character now.
