Ugly Betty: Queens for a Day, 10/12/06

Saturday 10.14.2006

Yep, the problem I had with this show is the problem. It's running theme of how many ways can they humiliate and uglify Betty. That's just wrong. What they needed to be doing was a character like Callie on Grey's Anatomy, a woman who doesn't fit the TV/Movie version of "beautiful" and has self-respect and confidence in herself. Instead they've made Betty this klutz who lets everyone walk all over her again and again and again and apologizes when they stumble on her. It's not funny, it's painful.
