    I suspect Betty will be around for next season because Don still needs a bad girl in his life. It's the only way Don can take Bets seriously-as another woman.

    Sal will be back eventually. How can he not? You know Don will find some client who will benefit from Sal's exclusive experience.

    Peggy will stay around and develop foolish feelings for Don once she learns he's getting divorced.

    Roger and Joan are so going to get it on!

    Trudy will end up with Joan's doctor once she learns that Pete is non-stop drooling over a self-Betty-fied Peggy.

    Well, fortunately, Matthew Weiner gave The Daily Beast this extremely helpful and informative answer:

    The Daily Beast: The formation of the agency left a lot of characters in the wind. Have we seen the last of Ken, Paul, and Sal?

    Weiner: I am going to say something that I don’t always say: I don’t know.

    Why all the Betty hate? I think I'm the only one who likes her even though January Jones is not that good of an actress. Plus, she has her own plot now. She married a man she's only known for six weeks! She and Don will probably spend next season being awkwardly placed in each others presence. Maybe she and Don will have an affair once she realizes what a mistake she has made by marrying Henry! #madmen

    I just realized last night that Trudie is also Annie on Community with Joel McHale. It was such a shock to realize because they are so different. So she is pretty busy herself. #madmen

    @Conchie Birdie: I love both characters, though. Annie is so adorkably earnest. She's Trudy, but without the steely drive to succeed (even if Trudy's own success is measured by her husband's). Trudy is what Annie could become, if she ever learned to stand up for herself. "Community" has already been picked up for next year. That actress owes her agent big-time if he or she brought her both "Mad Men" and "Community." #madmen

    I would like to invite Jon Hamm to star in independent erotic films produced, directed, and starred in by me in my home.

    Slattery can join us if he wants.

    Just in case this Mad Men gig doesn't work out.

    @naugahydeinplainsight: No one knows.. But I imagine they could spend all next season in 1964- "meeting the Beatles" alone isn't something they would skip readily.

    We'll probably see SCDP in a new office, up and running. But isn't it kind of sad, that long lingering look Don gave the SC office one last time?
    Like the intro to the show, that set seems to have become quickly iconic. Especially in retrospect. #madmen

    @Baroness: Kennedy is dead, and so is the elusive dream of the perfect American family. And just like the Drapers, it was all based on secrets and lies.

    However, I don't see the long, lingering look as iconic at all. Don said: "I never thought I would work in a place this nice." (or words to that effect.) He wants to BUILD something. Don't most people?
    Rather than having it handed to them, in a trust fund with a built in bar bill at the Yale Club, don't most people want to DO something with their lives?
    Anyway, he people I care about do. #madmen

    Moss leaving to be a movie star, would go over as well as Caruso leaving NYPD Blue to be a movie star.

    @resipsaloquacious: She did a pretty standard character role in last week's Mercy* as a mom with cancer undergoing excruciatingly painful treatment. Not a really auspicious appearance for a popular and talented actress.
    Rich Sommer's spot on Law & Order last week seemed more appropriate -- B level work for a mid-level actor.

    *(NBC show in the lives and loves of Joisey nurses -- ok, a little better than that.)

    @Go Like Hell Machine: Now that you mention it, where's Denzel Washington or Will Smith? (They should've been top 50)

    The wording on the other site doesn't source their list, so we might have to assume that it's whomever popped into the author's mind.

    @Go Like Hell Machine: Now see, Freeman is a great actor, but he has made some cash-based choices.

    And because you've given me a chance to clarify my original response; I didn't mean to imply that Will Smith is in the pantheon of great actors, but most people find him watchable and the critics like him.

    @Magister: Yeah, but both Meryl and Denzel make A LOT of movies, and not all of them good, so even though they have a lot of plusses, they're balanced out by quite a few minuses. The top ten (with the weird exception of Hanks) star in fewer movies, but they tend to be good ones, so they might have fewer plusses, but almost no minuses, giving them higher scores. #robertebert

    @AlmostDream:
    I'm a little hard-pressed to think of a badly-reviewed Meryl Streep film and your suggestion might explain the "Nerds of the Rings", but Ethan Hawke?

    Not to mention that there was a time, Martin Sheen would be in any movie with a checkbook. He has slowed down some since the the West Wing residuals have been rolling in, but he's still in a lot of films and though he's a very good actor, you can't say that all of his movies have been good.
