UGLY BETTY RULES


Of course, I love this show - what gay man wouldn't? I mean, Thursdays at Betty's are a homo holiday.

I love the honest portrayal of a 12-year old baby fag (Betty's nephew) who loves Broadway showtunes and Martha Stewart. I'm sure the bible bangers are cringing at the sight of a pre-teen fag on network television, but that makes "Betty" even more loveable.

I love Vanessa William's bitchy fashionista character Willamina - her politically incorrect one-liners are as horrible as they are fabulous. Her remark to an Arabic cabdriver had me in tears...."Why are you driving so slow...was your last vehicle a goat?"

I love that Rebecca Romijn plays a tranny. Of course, it's totally unbelievable, but who cares.

I love that someone has finally found a role worthy of Judith Light. I mean, I've loved her since she played Karen Wolek - prostitute by day and doctor's wife by night - on "One Life to Live". If memory serves me correct, she even won a daytime emmy for that role. On "Betty" she plays the queen bee who loves her tranny son as much as she loves her vodka. Come to think of it, didn't she have a fag son on "Who's the Boss", too?

Finally, I love Betty. Her character is the heart of the show; and her style is dead-on over-the-bridge Queens, New York - and there is nothing wrong with that - that is, unless you're in the biz called fashion.

Watch the show.

Much better choice - bags say alot about a girl. And a Kate Spade says secretary. I love a good Todd bag.

Thanks for stopping by the blog, cool blog you have going here. That's a fact men are better drivers, women take their eyes off the road they're in the ditch. lol

That kid on Whose the Boss was gay but the stupid writers tried to hide it by making him more girl crazy the more "gay" he got. It was sad, really. The show would have been much better with a "very special" coming out episode =)

I just heard that Dirt may not be renewed for a second Season!!! Say it isnt so MM!

Oh, I loved those "very special" episodes from the 80's. My favorites were when tubby Natalie on the "Facts of Life" lost her virginity and when Willis and Arnold were molested on "Different Strokes."

I hope that is not true about Dirt, as strange as it is. I have grown to enjoy it!
