Sorry, Don Draper. Your perennial spotlight is getting stolen by little Sally, your daughter and my new fave character. With those saucer eyes and that Kewpie-Doll pout, she conveys all the sensitivity and curiosity about the world that mom Betty lacks. SPOILER ALERT: They can't be serious about packing our fab Joan off to character retirement. She's the primary reason a lot of fans tune in every Sunday. Also, what was the deal with that Barbie doll Betty gave Sally? Why is Betty so ice-cold to her first-born child? And is Roger Sterling not long for this world, or at least agency? Guesses, anyone?
