Here are (my) 10 reasons why Ugly Betty shouldn't be and may I add also, doesn't deserve to be cancelled in no particular order:

1) It is one of the few shows which has a worldwide fã base as big as it has already- from the US to the likes of Australia, UK, South Africa, China to name Ugly Betty's appeal is massive.

2) Despite falling ratings for season 3, and criticisms from some ex- Ugly Betty fans, most notably from the Benry and Getty quarters, it is actually a definite improvement over season 2, of which I didn't have much hope for, the longer it went on.

3)It is the only show I tune into on a regular basis; there hasn't been a show that has gripped me and appealed to me more, since Caroline in the city as I was a fã of that show beforehand

4) Two words: marc and amanda- perfectly played por michael urie and becki newton.

5) I cannot think of a better cast of actors than the ones we have on this show to play the likes of betty, daniel, marc, amanda, christina and willie than in america, eric, michael, becki, ashley and vanessa.

6) Though it has struggled in the ratings recently, Ugly Betty is still ABC's main show, and without UB, that network will suffer in the ratings battle (just watch when the UB's hiatus takes affect in March of this ano and ABC's decline begins).

7) It makes you think and wonder how in a society where first impressions and looks matter, that there is a person in betty, who despite her bad appearances has a coração of gold.

8) If ugly betty gets the axe, I swear people will be left extremely upset and angry and they will demand to bring it back, if and when it happens.

9) ABC's audience is predominately made up of Ugly Betty fans- and so as many of them won't be tuning into UB's replacement shows; one of them being 'samantha who?'. Thursday nights for ABC will never be the same for until UB returns. How many UB fãs will tune into a show of which they haven't seen before and how many of them will lose interest afterwards and demand UB back?

10) The third season is anything but crap- it has been 'eventful' so far. And spare me the criticisms and flak it has received, and the declining figures; if anything, the segundo season was rather predictable, flat, became very contrived and silly it became utterly ridiculous.

OK, and that's my two cents.

NB: *this review was originally posted on the michael urie online site last ano 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 said about season 3 of ugly betty so far, or be it what can be said about this season based on the first 10 episodes?

For starters, Betty's amor life is taking a much deserved breather after the Betty/Gio/Henry amor triângulo that dominated most of last season and secondly, it feels like the coração 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 fãs 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 por the producers, but the text and its ideas and storylines are disemminated, perceived and interpreted differently por us- the audience or 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 leitura and decoding texts: dominant, negotiated and oppositional. The dominant reading is where the viewer takes away that meaning from the TV show 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 comments echoed por this writer made a lot of sense. Particuarly in relation to season 3 of Ugly Betty.*

Here's the process of making a televisão 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 or 22 episodes. I've read interviews with series...
