Not out yet but looking forward to it!!
So, this week I had to say goodbye to a very good friend. Ugly Betty, we (ALL your fans) will REALLY miss you. I definitely plan on buying all the seasons, maybe starting from the first one and working my way through it again. My one hope is that if enough people buy these seasons the ABC execs or some other station will bring back Ugly Betty. (Hey, it happened to Family Guy!!) This was a very good show that never failed to make me laugh or get drawn into the characters dilemmas. And how will I survive without Mark and Amanda, the best sidekicks ever?!?!? What a great set of characters and great actors to portray them. Not to mention the fantastic writers of the show who brought it all together! If you are looking for a show that guys and girls can get into, this is your pick. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!
Betty Goes Bye-Bye
It was Thursday night in September. The weather was nice, not too cold, not too warm. TV on the other hand, well, at that point its Thursday line-up had a lot to be desired. So I turned on Wheel of Fortune to see if the woman who was up $10,000 would hit the bankrupt slot or guess that the answer was "Granny's Homemade Apple Pie." Usually I would flip through the channels during commercial breaks, but like I said there was nothing else on. And then I saw a commercial that caught my attention. Popping up on the screen of my television was a 20-some odd girl with big blue braces, red glasses, and frizzy hair. "Ugly Betty! The world premiere at 8/7 central!" the narrator declared. And I decided to watch. 9 months 11 months later I found myself purchasing Ugly Betty - The Complete First Season and then 14 months later I purchased Ugly Betty: The Complete Second Season and then a year and a half later I purchased Ugly Betty: Season 3 and then I found myself watching season season 4...
Anything But Ugly
Where Do I Begin? Yes, Like "love story" I love love love "Ugly Betty"! Now I am not to taken by many tv shows, most I find annoying or Silly or dreadful....When a freind suggested I watch "Ugly" 4 years ago I thought "sure"..ok.....I did Like Vanessa Williams but hardly thought that be enough to make me enjoy the show.
Well, I was wrong....
I had the show on in the background (as most of my Tv watching) and by 15 mintues I was dead center in front of the Tv and was laughing and crying and Loving every single of this show. That Love Affair would go on to the end, and While I could pin point a few "flaws" in some plots I never lost my love for "Betty". I am still bitter that ABC moved it around and alas the show ended sooner than it Should Have.
Anyway here in all it's glory is Season 4, maybe the best season since the first. While I am said the only show I really loved won't be back in the fall, I am very happy that I had 4 wonderful years.
