No season 3 for Mad Men?

The NY Post reports that Mad Men has not been renewed for another season. Yet. Eep.

Around the TV business, the news that no plans were in place yet for a new season was greeted with surprise. "I can't believe they haven't renewed it yet," said an executive at HBO, which now sheepishly regrets it did not sign the series about Madison Avenue in the 1950s and '60s when it was offered several years ago.

Update: Variety reports that the show will return.

AMC has formally exercised its option for a third season of the period drama.

However, the show's creator is looking for more money and may not return. (thx, fladam)
