thanks guys. you guys make my point for me. Nigerians know and appreciate good clean entertainment.  ugly Betty is good and clean fun.

Touchstone & Reveille studios at their best.  no over rated stars and great writers. i am a paid up fan. i have series 1. will get the next too in my library. enjoy it and hope you guys get them to buy over there too.

Becki Newton as Amanda, Ana Ortiz as Hilda and Rebbecca Romijn as alexis Meade put in a strong performance too.

that is what good comedy does. turns common sense on its head don't we all know people like that?. people who know her for real say becki is a very nice young lady though with a great conscience.  the writers are brilliant. if you can can catch a little snap go here.    http://www.channel4.com/video/ugly-betty/series-2/episode-8/where-theres-a-will_p_1.html?intcmp=lifepage_box6


i don't know if channel4 allows viewers in Nigeria to watch on demand there. here is the link you may need to register or just buy the set if you like it that much  http://www.channel4.com/4od/index.html?cntsrc=ppc_4od_google_GCONTENT+Free

Ugly betty is definately the funniest series i have watched in a while. I have always ignored the synopsis of the series until one day i reluctantly bought season 1 and didnt leave my house for 2 days until i finished the whole season in a stretch. Its so hilarious how a person can be moving around the whole of new york with braces as big as a satellite dish and doesnt give a hoot, lol

The thing that cracks me up the most is that despite her ugliness, she has actually kissed more people than expected. Marc the gay assistant, walter her ex boyfriend who revels in giving her remote controls and batteries as a present and dates henry ( Actually the cutiest person on the show), who says being ugly doesnt get you the best things of life, lol
