Ugly Betty

So my new favorite tv show is Ugly Betty on ABC. Thursday nights at 8pm. This show is fantastic and absolutely hilarious! America Ferrera who plays Betty is an a gem of an actress. Betty is this uncoordinated, unfashionable (yes, I gues you would say ugly) young lady who is assistant to the editor at a FASHION magazine. Obviously Betty doesn't fit into the stick a finger down your throat so you stay skinny realm of unrealistic women (and men!). Yet, she is the most honest and makes all the right decisions to get them out of the fire. Salma Hayek, who is the producer, brought this show from Colombia (right Susana?!?) where it is a big hit...and it seems like it is going to be great here in the states as well.



The supporting characters are just as good as Betty herself. Especially her 12ish year old nephew Justin...who is just a tad more flamboyant than a boy his age should be. I loved this week's episode when he pointed out Amanda's two-year old Manolo Blahnik shoes....so yesterday!

You have to watch this show. If you've missed any episodes you can watch them at ABC.Com. Enjoy!
