The Coca-Cola ad came later on, but creator Matthew Weiner says "they wanted to know what the rest of the show was. This was back before everybody was demanded to write their entire show before they sold it. They didn't want a bible, but they wanted to know what it would be about every week. I gave them an endgame if we got to do the whole decade. That was the image. I always imagined it would be him on a bluff somewhere, sitting in the lotus position with a smile on his face.”

I thought the ending was a little strange and I didn't like it at first (except for Peggy and Stan... that was completely adorable) but I still think that Don eventually made his way back to NYC and wrote that awesome Coke Ad and reconnected with his family and friends. Life does go on.
