A show to recommend... (2007-12-20)

From my point of view, "Ugly Betty" is the kind of tv series that can make a fan out of you instantly, even if you watch just an episode. So if you don't have some free time you can dedicate to it every week, remember to avoid this show like the plague :) Why is this series fun? It's about a young girl from Queens, Betty (America Ferrera), that begins to work as assistant to Daniel (Eric Mabius), the new editor-in-chief at a fashion magazine. Betty is very intelligent and kind, but has a characteristic that amounts to sin in the world of fashion: she is not beautiful. The different episodes show us how she copes with stereotypes, makes new friends, finds love and tries to fight off the people who don't like her or want to see her boss fail. I think that you will be surprised by how good the actors in "Ugly Betty" are (even though special mention should be given to America Ferrara and Vanessa Williams, everybody shines). But more importantly, I believe that you will love the fact that a show that entertains also happens to deliver a strong and positive message. This tv series allows us to watch things that we take for granted from an unjaundiced point of view, that is from Betty's perspective, saying things that need to be said, but in such a way that you end up being entertained, and wanting to know what will happen next week. And then, you are hooked :) All in all, a show to recommend... Belen Alcat

Greed is a terrible thing! (2007-08-27)

Ugly Betty is a thoroughly enjoyable series ... so refreshing! It's just so much fun to watch! I too would gladly buy this dvd if it was fairly priced. Amazon wants over $70 for it and just recently I've seen it for much less in a local movie rental outlet. Is this just blatant greed? I've always counted on Amazon to offer me the best possible deal but lately it's been letting me down big time.

Outrageous! (2007-06-06)

And by that, I mean the price. Amazon wants $62 for a set that is selling at their US counterpart for $38. Our exchange rate is at 94 cents on the dollar. What is wrong with this picture? I know that this debate has been going on for the past year, with publishers and manufacturers not recognizing that our dollar is much stronger than it used to be. I am completely put off. I think that Ugly Betty is an amazing show, and for a fair price, I would buy it. This is not a fair price.
