Elisabeth Moss portrays Peggy, the New Girl at Sterling Cooper, a fictional advertising agency in Mad Men (AMC, Thursdays, 10pm, 9c). This show has a lot of things going for it: stunning design, beautiful costumes, thoughtful writing, complex-enough characters and, best of all for me, it's about Madison Avenue advertising in the early 1960s. Moss' Peggy is supposed to be bright-eyed and green, but there's something very serious and intelligent just below the surface. She's wiser than everyone gives her credit for and this doesn't seem to bother her. It's a source of power for her.
