Ugly Betty may be filling the gap where GIRLFRIENDS slacks off. Executively produced by Salma Hayek, Ugly Betty tells the story of an ordinary girl [played by America Ferrera] hired as an assistant to the editor of a top fashion magazine in New York City. Very much a Devil Wears Prada for TV, Ugly Betty is not a new concept. It's actually based on the Columbian telenovella Yo Soy Betty La Fea, and I think ABC has struck gold with this one. The show is fresh, funny, and it's refreshing to see a non-traditional, non-white family as the focus.
Ugly Betty is a keeper, and America Ferrera is doin' a bomb job!
