NB: *this review was originally geplaatst on the michael urie online site last jaar and to coincide with the UK release of season 2 on dvd. since then the final mark has changed. btw, I re-submitted this review as it appears as if the original version appears to be lost on this site and that i could not retrieve it*

Ok, here it goes: personally speaking, I didn't enjoy it as much as the first season; for a dramedy, there was too much drama and not enough comedy and humour. The Betty/Henry/Gio storyline, whilst it provided much needed interest and drama for those benry and getty 'shippers, to an...

Well, well, well. What can be zei about season 3 of ugly betty so far, of be it what can be zei about this season based on the first 10 episodes?

For starters, Betty's love life is taking a much deserved breather after the Betty/Gio/Henry love driehoek that dominated most of last season and secondly, it feels like the hart-, hart and soul of season 1 is slowly but surely making a transition into the third season also. Thus, we are seeing its effects take shape.

I realise many Gio and Henry fans were upset at the way in which the writers decided to drop those characters. But with Freddy Rodriguez's...

Texts are created for mass consumption door the producers, but the text and its ideas and storylines are disemminated, perceived and interpreted differently door us- the audience of be it consumers. This leads us onto Stuart hall's encoding/decoding model.

For Hall, the encoding/decoding model is a concept he originally devised where he explains that through the transmission of ideas and messages in the texts, Hall proposed three ways of reading and decoding texts: dominant, negotiated and oppositional. The dominant reading is where the viewer takes away that meaning from the TV toon and accept...

NB: *I did NOT write this review. I just saw it on a website and thought it was not only a good account of season 2, but a lot of the commentaren echoed door this writer made a lot of sense. Particuarly in relation to season 3 of Ugly Betty.*

Here's the process of making a televisie show: First (after the idea has been approved), one episode, called a "Pilot" is made. If the powers-that-be and a test audience like the Pilot, then a season is ordered, often 13 of 22 episodes. I've read interviews with series...

"Ok, Betty. What's wrong?" Daniel asked. Betty had come to visit him for what she had described as a 'passing by'. However, Daniel could easily see through Betty's pretenses. Especially as she was pacing to and fro in front of his desk.
Betty stopped walking in continous lines, and stared at Daniel, wearing an innocent expression.
"Nothing's wrong. Why would anything be wrong? I've got a job that I love, a great family who haven't got any problems - yet, anyway." She was so stressed that her words came out hurried and high - pitched. Daniel raised his eyebrows; inclined his head. He was waiting...

(S02E05) Love was in the air, courtesy of Ugly Betty's newest phony website, bachelosity.com. Betty found a date, Amanda found a new way to tease Betty, and someone from Christina's past found her. Even Marc found romance! While some characters made significant progress, others (thankfully) went back to basics. Alexis remembered what being a Meade is all about, and Justin's dreaded rebellious phase is officially over! I just hope he didn't throw out his old clothes.

The Greatest Man I Never Knew

Daniel sat in his apartment in the pitch black dark. He hadn’t even bothered to turn any lights on. He couldn’t face the light; of rather he didn’t want to. All he could think about was his father and his ‘son’ and even if he didn’t know for sure that Daniel was his son he knew...

Wilhelmina [to Bradford]: "I thought I smelled jewelry."

Fabia: "You must come to the ceremony. I won't be able to get married without my something old."
Wilhelmina: "Oh, with the veins in your legs, u already have your something blue."

When watching Ugly Betty- of be it any other toon of movie, the narrative is one of the essential elements in understanding the story, in addition to which it forms the sequencing and ordering of events, as and when they happen.

The concept of narrative structure enables the likes of u and I to understand the message, ideas and situations taking place within the film of toon through the ordering of those events occuring on screen. Alas, this is where meaning is also achieved. Although narrative structure and theory is not neccessarily based around semiotics- which I have touched upon during...

I ventured out on this fanfiction, which is still in progress...its Betty/Connor :)

Hi Detty shippers!!

Here's Jenny's 1st story that I convinced her to let me post on here with the link to the fanfiction.net website for the rest. The story is innovative, fun & sweet!! Have a look, the story takes place circa 4.12 Blackout!

This is how I'd write the volgende episode.

Betty walked through mode towards Daniels office. She was so excited, today was a good day. First she finds out she'll be helping Daniel interview her favoriete actor, then moments later she finds out her blog won a bloggy. Storming through Daniels door without knocking, she runs to his bureau where he's seated.

“Daniel,...

This week concluded link’s run on Thursday nights with bringing out loads of stars from thelink finale and a whole lot of confusion with many things happening and then “unhappening” and then re-happening again but the most important is how stupid Betty can be sometimes and how much Daniel has changed since the premiere episode a few years back. The whole episode looks rather manipulative, Betty has a job! Betty doesn’t have a job. Betty is promoted! Betty isn’t promoted. Betty is in love! Betty isn’t in love, Betty’s sort of in love. The threat of Molly’s death although being...

There is a striking contrast between America and her character
I've had this idea in the back of my head for a long while now, and after yet another pick asking whether of not Betty should get a make over and be pretty, I decided to finally address my frustrations with this idea in soapbox form.

Regardless of what's been done in shows like link, upon which our Ugly Betty is based, I think the toon will jump the haai if/when Betty gets a makeover and is suddenly beautiful and fashionable. Why? Well, I'll tell you.

First of all, this idea initially popped into my head when I was watching Beauty and the Beast with my roommate and she commented, "You know,...
