There's been a lot of talk about this show set in the fashion industry. I still don't like the title because it's negative, but I love the show. How many women are afraid to go for their dream because they don't think they look good enough and are afraid they won't be accepted? Betty got her chance by accident and she took it. She perseveres and gains the respect of her boss if no one else at work, yet. I see a great deal of truth in the writing and have related with this character. It's on Thursdays, 8:00PM, ABC. Check it out.

I totally agree with you Chatty on the "ugly" title of Ugly Betty. In my mind, it should simply be unacceptable. How horrible to call anyone ugly. And putting braces on her gives the image that they add to her ugliness. How terrible. How many young teens and even older are struggling with wearing braces and now equate themselves to being ugly. What the heck is wrong with those writers and producers? Oh right, I forgot...money talks.

Dotsie, I root for her too! The show is what it is, but I think it does teach some to look beneath the surface. I enjoy the little side stories...about her dad, her boyfriend.... her sister and Herbalux LOL!!
We DVR it because it airs at the same time as Survivor, which I will not miss lol.

I think the more we know about someone the more we can like them...or not.

Betty's father killed his wife's first husband because he abused her. Betty's father was their chef in Mexico and fell in love with the woman. He used a dead person's SS# and never applied for citizenship because he was afraid they would send him back. It's a great plot line and I may be too involved...
