Ugly Betty
I started at the beginning of Ugly Betty this weekend. I think it is the most light-hearted shows I've seen in a while. I enjoy every single character, and have enjoyed every single plot line, some of which have had the brightest and most unexpected resolutions. They've done a great job of integrating good characters into a reasonably realistic editorial/fashion/photography environment. The production is very good on all fronts, America Fererra is incredibly likeable, and I find it truly funny. A positive and engaging piece of programming.

Most surprising to me is Vanessa Williams, playing the only evil person on television I've ever wanted to succeed. Who knew she was any good? Wish there was more with the irish (?) seamstress. I think CityTV did a brilliant thing purchasing this program, and that everyone involved should be very proud.

I don't know why, but I can't stand America Fererra. It's not her as a person I guess, it's just the fact that she's supposed to represent the entire big hipped/ugly girls out there in every one of her roles.

Cait (I think): You're nuts, she's great in Ugly Betty :)

Anyway the (scottish I believe) seamstress is the other main character in Extras (the latest Ricky Gervais series), she's fantastic in that also.
