UGLY BETTY?

I don't know if anyone has seen the ads for this show, but it looks really awful. Some of you may remember the plot of the dreaded She's All That, a girl who wears glasses and her hair in a ponytail and we all know how awful that looks to very high school jock asshole and frat mattress. Well, this show is called Ugly Betty because the girl wears glasses and has unexciting hair and braces. I find it hilarious how if a girl or woman doesn't look like one of the skanks on The OC or Desperate Housewives (or as I call it: Sex in the Suburbs), she is called ugly and gets a show named for that. What a strange culture we have.

I don't need to see this show to know it is going to be a heart-warming program about a girl who is unattractive on the surface but is a really good person, AKA "beautiful on the inside" as everyone discovers.

Ridiculous.
