Well hello my at the moment 2 followers....which I think is the same person :P
So it's nearly Christmas, which means a lot of changes to the television schedule with many programmes starting or finishing over this period, and one of these sadly for me finished last night after 4 great years on our screens...
Hopefully these titles will remind you of the wonderful show for many years to come:
Yes this is Ugly Betty, produced by ABC in America and shown here in the UK on Channel 4 and E4 between 2006 and well last night on the 22/12/2010 here in England.
I have to say that Ugly Betty is probably one of my favourite television programmes ever made as it was filled with great actors, great characters, great sets and of course great storylines...which for me and others I know, should have allowed it to remain for at least 1 more series.
However slowly but surely both here and in the USA the show did lose viewers, in mine and many others opinion due to some scheduling problems. Although this did not mean that production left it to just run out its course but instead put all of its might into producing a finale- 'Hello Goodbye', which would touch any true fan to laugh and also cry at the same time.
Even though I won't spoil it for those who have not watched, the fact that storylines were tied up so well, old characters returned and that by the end we the audience had come full circle with Betty now in her dream job and with a completely outstanding new look, made the end seem also just like a new beginning.
America Ferrera and all her co-stars shall be missed but theres hope that with the recent Digital Spy article, stating that the 'dramedy has seen a year-on-year audience increase while being screened on E4" this brings some hope to a film that has been rumoured to hopefully occur.
In all I shall miss you Ugly Betty for bringing such a wonderful light hearted but also dramatic show, that we have very little of left today on our screens. I finish with what I think is one of the perfect finales to a show I have ever seen :) Enjoy:
Merry Christmas :D
Thankyou ABC, E4 and Youtubers: mrduckbears and studiopie
