Don Draper will be drinking, smoking and brooding on Man Men for the entirety of the series.

Jom Hamm signed a new deal this week to remain on the AMC drama for three more years, which is the same length of time the show was renewed for in April. It will likely go off the air when both deals are up.

Hamm will also direct his first episode of the Emmy Award-winning series some time in 2012.

Mad Men won't return until then, but if you haven't seen Bridesmaids yet, hurry up and do so. The film is worth the price of admission for Hamm's role in the opening five minutes alone.
