Don, Sal, and Peggy are the only characters of the show that I find interesting. And while Don and Peggy seem to be the main characters, I don't feel like I really know them. I find myself wishing it spent more time elaborating on their issues and history. Like in Lost. It felt like in every other episode of Lost you really got to know a lot more about a major character or something very significant happened that altered the relationships between characters. In Mad Men, things just... roll over. There's no catharsis.
