There’s no doubting that in the last year or so the vampire has reigned the supernatural genre with True Blood, Twilight and The Vampire Diaries all attracting huge audiences. On the one hand, this is a good thing (Alexander Skarsgård and Robert Pattinson), but on the other, not so much. I blame the love affair [...]

Like far too many US series lately, Ugly Betty has been struggling for some time with how to follow up a great first season. The second season was very bitty, and the third season even more so. Whilst there have been some elements that have really worked, such as the development of the relationships between [...]

After a patchy second season, I’m not asking for much of season three of Ugly Betty, merely that it be more consistent and entertaining than the last one, and that it be better than Heroes, which shouldn’t be too difficult… Warning – if you haven’t seen last night’s opening episode yet, don’t click the ‘more’ [...]

BRACES! Ugly Betty, Channel 4, 9.00pm There’s a good chance that the eventual winner of Big Brother tonight will be a huge disappointment, which will be a fitting end to a fairly lacklustre series if nothing else, but in the meantime we’re all going to need something to look forward to, to take our minds [...]

For others it is simply something that will hopefully brighten up an otherwise fairly dull second series of Ugly Betty. Whatever [...]

FASHION! Ugly Betty, Channel 4, 9.00pm Well this is a turn up for the books, isn’t it? Usually we have to wait until January at the very earliest for the new season of a US show to start over here – presumably because US broadcasters tend to have a couple of mid-season hiatuses which is [...]

FINALE! Ugly Betty, Channel 4, 9.00pm Seriously, we’ve just got something in our eyes. We are totally not crying as a result of having watched this show on E4 on Wednesday, whatever you might think. We’re definitely not that girly. We do not in any way get far too emotionally attached to television characters. Oh, [...]

¡CHICA FEROZ! Ugly Betty, Channel 4, 9.30pm You weren’t keen. Even after Davina dressed up like her in the name of cross-promotion (frankly, one of her better outfits, this season). Comments ranged from “Is that what all the fuss was about,” to “It was alright”. “Does it get better?” asked Mike. Well having seen the [...]
