brighter! bolder! bettyer!

UGLY BETTY is such a fabulous show. All of these amazing elements come together in one extremely entertaining hour of television:

* the kooky characters. CLIP: Amanda sings MILKSHAKE in "It's a Nice Day for a Posh Wedding" from season 2.



* the outlandish storylines. CLIP: Kenny (the "Perez Hilton" of Mode) tells Henry about Betty's blind date in "A League of Their Own" from season 2.



* the homage to all things fashion and Broadway. CLIP: Justin performs his own version of HAIRSPRAY for Santos and Hilda on the subway in "Derailed" from season 1.



* the brilliant zingers (especially between Wilhelmina, Marc and Amanda). Marc to Betty, "At Mode, fashion is currency. I know that's hard for you to understand because you're so very much in debt!" CLIP: Betty, Marc, Amanda, Willy, and Christina in a montage of scenes from Season 1's "Swag".



Season 1 was phenomenal, with an "East Side Story" finale that had me on a emotional roller coaster!



Season 2 of BETTY is even funnier and more charming than ever. I loooved the “Something WICKED This Way Comes” episode!
