    LOVE this show. TiVo it every week, and watch each episode multiple times, especially the ones with Henry in them. Love him! Hope Betty ditches Walter for Henry and soon, before some gorgeous woman snatches Henry away!

    Finally, a comedy with heart and hope. I just hope they would make Betty more secure and more confident and not much of that fake clumpsiness.

    Its been a long time since ABC has had a show as funny and with a good script, as Ugly Betty. I have seen the original columbian version and enjoyed it very much. I love the way it has been Americanized to fit our society. I believe many americans and many viewing audiences will tune in each weak and will find within themselves many charecteristics that many lack in our society, love, Its been a long time since ABC has had a show as funny and with a good script, as Ugly Betty. I have seen the original columbian version and enjoyed it very much. I love the way it has been Americanized to fit our society. I believe many americans and many viewing audiences will tune in each weak and will find within themselves many charecteristics that many lack in our society, love, compassion, humility and forgiveness. All I have to say is for the other networks, "watch out", because ABC is back!… Expand

    I love this show, America Ferrara is great and very funny. Also, people have to remember this is the same premise that was used on the spanish version, which was done long before Prada.

    Ugly Betty is Awsome. I love this show finally an ABC show where the main charcter is likeable. Susan and Merideth are not likeable at all. America Ferrera deserves an emmy nomination but the win should go to Marcia Cross this year.

    This juicy comedy-drama recaptures the fun of Desperate Housewives in its first season.

    The driving force behind the show's appeal is Ferrera, who gives a pitch-perfect, killer performance in the opening episodes.
