Thus, the idea of a single "correct" interpretation, as one might find in science, simply doesn't exist. Some interpretations are founded on more concrete evidence than others. Hence, they might be more persuasive to a given audience in a given time period.
Even in science interpretations can change (Kuhn).
Postmodernism has had a profound effect in not only how we respond to literature, movies, music, art, etc but also in how authors construct their stories. Just look at the major TV shows of the last decade or so. There have been numerous shows that have ended with some kind of ending that is open to interpretation.
One's interpretation of Mad Men's ending depends on how one personally feels about Don.

So? In the world that Mad Men exists, Weiner is god. His interpretation is reality. You can argue about subjective things like "is Don a good guy" etc. But events like "Did Don create the Coke ad" can only be argued if Weiner himself doesnt know. They can also be argued because Weiner doesnt tell people. But even then, one of those arguments is correct.
