Regina's So-Called Blog

So I've finally reserved a little space on the "interweb" to record my random musings. The real challenge will be stepping away from my rampant pop culture consumption to actually write down my thoughts regarding said pop culture tidbits or anything else that crosses my mind. Or will it just become like my Facebook page that I never visit? Only time will tell.

So Long, Ugly Betty

I just deleted an episode of Ugly Betty from my dvr...for the last time. :-( The first of my tv goodbyes, this season. And it hurt more than I expected. I know a lot of people lost interest in Ugly Betty after the first year, and it's certainly had its ups & downs since that great freshman season. Overall though, I always found the show to be touchingly sweet with some stellar moments of funny. Wilhelmina, Mark & Amanda had some great lines, even during the so-so episodes. We're talking hi-larious funny. Little Justin's "coming out" moment a couple weeks ago was precious

I will miss this show. I actually cried quite a bit during the finale, what with all the goodbyes and sweet moments. I'm glad the writers had enough time to tidily tie up everyone's storylines. Happy endings all around! If only shows didn't have to die. (Just wait until Lost and 24 bid adieu. I am going to be apoplectic and inconsolable!)

Thanks for 4 fun years, Betty. This post from EW Popwatch (Entertainment Weekly is my bible) poignantly captures the why Betty was far from ugly. Even the post made me teary. http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/04/14/ugly-betty-why-it-mattered/
