The New Ugly Betty Podcast Is Awesome!
Original at Ugly Betty
• Tue, Feb 24
By Tom You HAVE to check out this week’s Ugly Betty Podcast at ABC.com! Not only is it hilarious as usual, not only do Becki Newton and Michael Urie drop a few minor spoilers, but they answer a question “on air” from Ugly Betty mega-fan (and frequent Ugly Betty News commenter) Beatrice B!
Poll: What Do You Think Of Matt?
Original at Ugly Betty
• Mon, Feb 23
By Tom One of the many things being discussed about Ugly Betty episode 3.15, There’s No Place Like Mode, is the introduction of the character Matt. The character, played by the tastefully three-named Daniel Eric Gold, will be (at least on a surface level) Betty’s new romantic interest.

Should Ugly Betty Switch Nights?
Original at Ugly Betty
• Fri, Feb 13
By Tom I’ve given up on the idea that Ugly Betty is ever going to draw decent numbers of men. They used to give us males ample eye candy (especially Daniel’s “conquests”) and a few story lines that appealed to male sensibilities, but sometime in season 2 the producers knew where their bread was but...
Bigtime Ugly Betty Spoilers From Ausiello!
Original at Ugly Betty
• Thu, Feb 12
By Tom As far as Betty’s new boss goes, your guess is as good as mine. Does this mean that Daniel will once again not be Editor in Chief for a time? Or will Betty end up working for someone who isn’t Editor in Chief? Marc? Maybe he’ll have a meteoric rise, like Kimmie did earlier this season. Or, one intri...

Panel: The Art And Design of Ugly Betty
Original at Ugly Betty
• Fri, Jan 30
By Tom I guess I’m in that latter camp. It’s always a fun thing to discuss, though. (BTW, the two issues, Betty losing glasses and braces, and Betty pairing with Daniel are separate, in my mind. I’d like to see the latter without the former, no matter how unrealistic that might seem).
Ausiello, Urie Give Ugly Betty Fans Hope
Original at Ugly Betty
• Wed, Jan 28
By Tom I think what’s been confusing everyone is that ABC has given no indication (that I can tell) about the length of Samantha Who? and In the Motherhood’s run. The signs seem to point to a shorter run than many of us had guessed. Will this mean Betty will be back in time for May sweeps? We’ll all just h...
Can Ugly Betty Survive The Bench?
Original at Ugly Betty
• Tue, Jan 27
By Tom There are still many questions. Let’s say Ugly Betty does well when it comes back (for arguments sake, let’s say it stays in the 7-8 million range; that’s pretty good for summer). If it is brought back for a 4th season, would that season start in September, or would Betty become one of those sho...

Ugly Betty Episode 3.12: Some Thoughts
Original at Ugly Betty
• Fri, Jan 23
By Tom Here are some of my initial thoughts about last night’s episode of Ugly Betty, 3.12 - Sisters on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. They saved the drama for the last 15 minutes, which was surprising considering the promos. The opening montage was nice, classic Ugly Betty. The absolute funniest...

By Tom Of course, Vanessa will be back on Ugly Betty tomorrow night, in episode 3.12, Sisters on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. Her character Wilhelmina, if you recall, has just hooked up with her super-crush Connor. I’m really looking forward to seeing how this develops.

By Tom The Molly/Connor/Daniel thing looks interesting from this perspective: it doesn’t mention a Connor relationship with Wilhelmina. I don’t know what that means, but obviously Connor is not yet over Molly, and SHE was the one who broke it off.

Opinion: Ugly Betty Makes TVGuide’s ‘Biggest Moments’ ListOriginal at Ugly Betty

By Tom For me, the best Ugly Betty moment of 2008 was probably when Amanda sang ‘Gene Simmons is my Daddy’ at The Beer Hole (yes, there were great moments from season 2). But, that’s my gut impression, I want to think about it and post in a year end review before the new year.

Betty And Amanda’s Article At ModeNY.com
Original at Ugly Betty
• Mon, Dec 8
By Tom It is written in Betty’s voice (not easy to do), just as “Amanda’s Blog” is written in her voice. That tells me the Ugly Betty writers have something to do with this. Betty twists between narrative of the events in 3.10, and waxing philosophical:

Ugly Betty Anti-Gay? Are You Kidding Me?

By Tom Every major storyline in the show has a gay character (I count Daniel/Wilhelmina, because Marc is always shadowing Willy).
