#1 Cheap Ugly Betty: Season 3 Reviews
Available at Amazon Limited Special Price!! See Now!!
I never thought I would've actually enjoyed a show about a young woman trying to make it at a fashion magazine.
But in the end, this show isn't really so much about the where as it is about the how and why of the characters who all make it happen.
Sure, the acting is top notch. And of course, the writing is spot on. But the actors themselves seem to take the material even further with their pitch perfect delivery.
For my part, this season did something I had thought impossible by making the show even better.
Losing Daniel's Dad last season was a definate plus. That guy had all the comic appeal of a Bond villain.
But more than that, maybe it even has something to do with returning the show to New York, it's gained a certain verite by returning its characters to more realistic (or perhaps better, less unrealistic) story lines.
Seasons 1 and 2 were great but amazingly enough season 3 is even better.
As an interesting aside, this show is one of many recent examples where the inspiration for a popular US television program has come from abroad like HBO's In Treatment which was inspired by an Israeli television program dealing with the same issues and The Office of course based on a British program of the same name. In the case of Ugly Betty, the inspiration came from a Mexican program of course called Betty Le Fea.
In this way, not only the United States but its television programming as well has become a melting pot of sorts.
