New ‘Mad Men’ Season 7 Photos Show Everyone On Planes, But What Does It Mean?!

Mad Men is returning soon! On April 13 we will finally get new episodes that will be simultaneously entertaining and stressful with a dash of "Oh no! Why must it end?!" (Okay, maybe more than a dash.) But for now, our pain can only be eased with Mad Men's newly released photos.

Last season ended with Don Draper revealing the truth of his childhood to his children, co-workers, and a stunned group of Hersey's execs. Also, Sterling, Cooper & Partners (I miss Sterling-Cooper-Draper-Price, personally) decides to expand to the west coast. This last tidbit of information is particularly important when seeing the new photos because EVERYONE IS ON AIRPLANES. Did everyone decide to go to the West Coast? The California episodes always make me want to hop on a flight, so maybe everyone was like "New York is over" we wanna go be, or hang out with, hot hippie babes.

Click through for photos that will make you wish the show would hurry up and start.

In a recent interview with Buzzfeed, Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner said, ”If they’re in the gallery photos, they’re gonna be in the show.” So I guess we’ll be seeing all these guys soon.(Ps. #TeamPeggyAndStan)

Joan

Joan looks fantastic here. Can there be a spin-off where, after Joan’s Mad Men story ends, she starts managing a group of raucous flight attendants.

Betty

I’d like you to take a minute and try to remember Betty’s giant 50s-style dresses from the first season. Oh how times have changed.

Roger

Roger still sitting in the airport symbolizes his need to hold on to the past and not fly into the future like everyone else?

Megan

These pictures are better than any fashion magazine editorials I’ve seen recently.

Don

Ah! The pièce de résistance. Why is he exiting a plane? Why is the sky blue? For real, why not grey to represent his inner demons? What is he looking at? Who else is on the plane? WHY ISN’T THIS SHOW STARTING RIGHT NOW?
