CLICK HERE to read our full coverage of San Diego Comic-Con 2016. The first crush I ever had on a TV character was in 1999. I was 10 and I was absolutely crazy about a shy, blue-haired misfit named Harrison John. Harrison on The WB’s high school satire Popular was Christopher Gorham’s first role. He […]

It may have been a thoroughly mediocre episode but Accidentally on Purpose returned last night and had at least one smile-worthy moment: Zack: My instincts about people are way better than yours. Billie: Why do you say that? Zack:Well, you picked me but I picked you. In other Wednesday night comedy news, Ugly Betty is […]

Beautiful = Bitchy?

In the incredibly artificial world of Ugly Betty it makes total sense that her holier-than-thou, do-gooder thing would completely disappear to be replaced by ruthless ambition and general heartlessness if she’d been born with perfect teeth. Not because pretty people are evil (though the Betty powers-that-be beg to differ), but because Betty’s always been a […]

Bye Betty! I’m Glad To Have Known You.

Well, not you exactly, but your friends and family have made wonderful additions to my weekly TV schedule now for 4 seasons. ABC just announced that this will be Ugly Betty‘s final season on the air. The series will have time to wrap up their 20 episode order and say a proper goodbye before disappearing […]

A Betty Pet Peeve

Why do the Ugly Bettywriters keep sending her hot and wonderful men who are madly in love with her? Betty should have ended up with Walter (the annoying boyfriend from the series’ beginning). All these wonderful men (Henry, Gio, Matt) are supposedly falling in love with Betty’s inner beauty. But putting all looks aside, Betty […]

Betty drives me nuts! While I agree with Rachael that it is ridiculous for the Suarez family to blame Betty for pursuing her career and that they only support her when it’s convenient, I can’t help but feel that they have a bit of a point. Absolutely, Betty should have gone to that networking party […]

This week’s Ugly Betty focused on one of my least favorite story lines of the series, one which has colored every single season of the show thus far but which I thought we had finally left behind at the beginning of Season 3: the “Betty’s family thinks she’s choosing work over them and gets mad” […]

I don’t think I have loved an episode of Ugly Bettyas much as I loved this one in a VERY long time. Not only was Betty’s storyline engaging, Daniel had multiple lovely good guy moments, Christina and Amanda both made amusing appearances, Wilhelmina’s storyline was a very humanizing one and the episode was very Marc […]

My Dearest Marc,

As Betty said this week “I know you’re a good person”. You may be prickly, you may run scared when faced with commitment, you may be ambitious, conniving, and a tad bit bitchy but none of that is the point. Cliff’s perfect. Don’t let your screw up end your relationship. Fight god dammit, fight. And […]

Ugly Betty is Back!!
  Kelly Bedard

Technically it premiered last week but this Thursday’s episode of Ugly Bettywas good enough to make me forget and the horrid 43 minutes of last week. This week’s plot was an homage to (openly ripped off from) The Devil Wears Prada- and it worked. I loved Whilemina trying to steal Betty and seeing potential in […]

There were 3 major season premieres last night of shows that I love. Ugly Betty moved to Manhattan in more ways than one and moved on from Mode as well as from the men of her past. Hilda dated a married man. Ignacio got a job working for Lindsay Lohan and Daniel tried to make […]

In honour of this week’s fabulous installment of Ugly Betty here are my favourite quotes from the episode. MARC: “Mandy! You’re going to be a reality TV star! It’s what every pretty girl with no specific talent dreams of” “Marc and Amanda, we’re so funny together, everyone says so” “If it isn’t Miss Fancy Pants […]

This Week on TV

For some reason all the TV worth watching is currently on either Sunday, Monday or Thursday. This means that I tend to watch things all at once. Thus, I will now write about them all at once. I apologize for the lack of posting this week and hopefully can make up for it with one […]

I ADORED UGLY BETTY THIS WEEK. Last year I liked it, this year Ive been loving it and I worship last night’s episode. As a massive Wicked fan I thought they used the show brilliantly (and of course I loved seeing bits of it on TV). The “I’m Not that Girl” montage was heartbreaking. “The […]

and for that matter. beautiful Hilda, beautiful Daniel, beautiful Justin, beautiful Mark, Christina, Claire, Alexis, Amanda, Wilhemina, Bradford, Santos and beautiful Henry. This show is just beautiful. The revelation of Alexis’ memory lapse made me gasp out loud (I’m sure my floor mates think I’m nuts), I almost started to cry when it was revealed […]
