It's the end of an era.

After seven seasons of multiple eras and endless drinks, Mad Men is ending its run with one final round come Sunday, April 5. 

In honor of the iconic AMC series' ending, we're sharing exclusive videos of John Slattery, Christina Hendricks and some of Mad Men's biggest stars reflecting on the epic journeys of two of our favorite characters: Roger and Joan. 

"From the beginning, Joan's presence in the office was very assured," Jon Hamm says of Joan's professional awakening over the years, with Hendricks saying, "I feel deeply satisfied and I feel deepy proud and the last seven episodes haven't come out yet, and I'm just as proud as can be." 

Hendricks, Hamm, Elizabeth Moss and Vincent Kartheiser also look back at Roger's progression over the course of the series with Slattery, who says, "

"Did he change at all? I think he ends up the person he is fortified with the experience that he had...he way the characters mature in this show I find very mature and sophisticated because they change a little bit and then they change back." 

And Slattery knows just how special Mad Men is, admitting, "To look forward to something like this happening again seems impossible."

Watching this group of fascinating actors discuss their equally as fascinating alter-egos truly is a treat, so press play on the exclusive videos above to get more insight into the minds of Mad Men's characters.

Mad Men's final season kicks off on Sunday, April 5 at 10 p.m. on AMC.
