Ugly Betty's third season ended last night. What I love about it was:
I love that while giving his speech Daniel saw Molly all dressed-up in that red dress, when it was actually Molly's soul saying goodbye to him. It reminds me of stories I've read in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series.
I love the quick scene of Amanda consolling Marc at the end of the episode. I really love their friendship.
It broke my heart to see Daniel losing Molly and being comforted by Betty. I love how they were always there for one another and how their relationship was beyond boss-personal assistant.
Claire's cliffhanger is one of things that I can't wait for. I wonder who is the son that she had with Hartley (or maybe somebody else for that matter).
And Matt. He broke up with Betty. But next season he will be Betty's boss thanks to his father, Hartley, the new owner of Meade Publications. His demeanor has changed and I think he'll be cruel-Matt.
And I definitely love the Cinde Lauper song (Time After Time) for the ending montage. Especially with the scene where Betty hugging Daniel tight.
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time

I love Ugly Betty. The show always makes me laugh. I watched Yo Soy Betty La Fea as an undergrad student. Although it was not one of my favourite shows, I tried not to miss it. With what I call a “Desperado Disease” back then, I love stories with an ugly heroine. I feel there’s a touch of reality somewhat even if the story is not.
Remember them?
One of the things that I enjoy in watching ugly Betty is the friendship that had developed between Betty, Amanda and Marc. Amanda and Marc care about Betty in their own mean way. Anyway, I think these two OTT characters exude the humour that I love in the show.
Amanda and Marc trying to teach Betty how to get Matt to make love to her. This was from the episode shown this week on 8TV.
One thing that I dislike is Betty’s good luck in dating. I mean she’s supposed to be ugly right? Somehow last season two men fought for her. Henry and that sandwich guy (what’s his name?). And this season Betty gets a billionaire boyfriend(!), Matt. Sheesh! But come to think of it, I know the show is trying its best to portray that confident, intelligent but plain-looking women can also play the dating game =)
Matt the billionaire.
