The Mad Men contingent was out in full force, and cast members were celebrating even before the show won best drama.
January Jones, who plays housewife Betty Draper, said, "We shoot from April to August, so it's just nice to come to these events, see my castmates and just party."
Vincent Kartheiser (Pete Campbell) said he's thrilled show creator Matt Weiner was able to sign a deal and return for the third season. "That's huge. He is the heart and soul of our show."
Said Weiner: "I am glad to go back to work, and that we will start getting the writers back in."
What will the season be about? "I don't know," he said. "I have a few ideas."
After the ensemble win, the actors showed up backstage first. When asked where the women were, Kartheiser joked, "They're making sandwiches." (They were actually getting their photo taken.)
Star Jon Hamm spoke about the show's still relatively low ratings, which he had joked about onstage. "It is a particular kind of show, it's not a doctor show, not a lawyer show, not cop show. It's something that has to find an audience. … It's a character study in a particular time. It is a credit to AMC and Lionsgate that they have stuck with the show."
