So, I'm totally loving Ugly Betty. It's got heart. It's got funny. It's got pizzazz. What it doesn?t have is a character who's a writer. I mean, I don't think there's been one character on the show so far who writes for a living. (Yes, I know that Salma Hayek's character had written a couple of books, but within the plotline of the show she was an editor-in-chief, so that doesn't count.)And this is a show about a magazine!
A show about a magazine on which there's a character who's a receptionist, and a character who's a seamstress, and a character who's an accountant, but not one writer, for chissakes.
I mean, I know that writers aren't, as a species, sleek and glamorous creatures. I'm aware that we're not fashion models, but come on, we've got to have more TVQ than the accountants.
Otherwise, it's really quite a good show.
