I saw the first six episodes of Ugly Betty S2. Then ... just didn't see any more. Yeah.

Not keen on that show. The fact the cast a very un-ugly woman as Betty was just typical US telly.

It's a bit too knowingly quirky for me.

There's nothing on at the moment, and my Freeview box has lost it's volume!

I like it.

I like it, I don't love it. Kinda like Desperate Housewives. It's all colourful and pretty to watch, but I don't really follow what's happening.

That is very true.

And Pushing Daisies.

I think I've finished this season already. :$

That is very true.

Also it follows the Golden Rule in US shows:

"Right, we need an ugly girl"
"Get a fit one, give her a brace and some big glasses'
"Done!"

I missed Pushing Daisies. Was it good - is it worth catching up on?

I do love UB and DH.

I've never seen DH. Bit too girly methinks. Pushing Daisies is worth watching, I'm sure you'll like the main character. ;)

Yes - I nearly put that!

AND they say she's fat FFS!

AND (again) her clothes are actually quite funky, yet they criticise her.

(Still like it though!)

Id agree the girl playing Betty 'aint really ugly; but I think fit is going a bit too far!!

Going to watch Gervais now on 4.
