Re: ABC benches 'Ugly Betty'
The Daniel/Wilhemina thing will be shaken up at least a little, if the preview for tonight's episode was any indication. Also, considering what happened last week with a certain distraught character, that likely confirms one of two changes to the show's cast:
Spoiler:
that Molly will eventually die, and the other is Christina leaving.

I thought Molly might have been pregnant.

Regarding the spoiler I wrote:

Spoiler:
With regards to Christina, it's a typical case of more money / negotiation / leaving if she doesn't get her way. Behind-the-scenes gossip/nonsense which unfortunately affects the show - if she does indeed leave that's the most likely reason why.

Seems like they just dumped her storyline and Willimena's storyline. Both last night came to a screaching halt. It was as is the guest stars contracts were up and they went bye bye.
That was quick.

That's fricking hysterical that Ugly Betty discussions are now relegated to a Benched thread. Shows how much people in this forum care about this show now.

I thought DJariya started every TV episode thread, complete with promo pictures, so why bother.

I liked the last episode. Good to see Bobby Bacala.

this week's episode ('Sugar Daddy') was soooo much better than last week's depressing episode.

I only do threads for shows I like whether or not people here choose to chime in or not.

I just get annoyed when someone is too lazy to create a thread about a show they want to talk about and bumps the pilot thread or episode 2 thread to talk about episode 25 of a certain show. That bugs the crap out of me.

And yeah I have taken alot of effort creating all these threads with pics too since I'm a passionate TV watcher like most of you here.

I thought the TV chef looked familiar. Willie on the bus was hilarious. I'm curious how long Betty's new relationship will last now that he's in a rich family with a snooty mother (Christine Baranski).

I absolutely CANNOT STAND Christine Baranski.

I love this show, so I will tolerate her presence on it.

I've never had any sort of problem with this show, so I'm kind of oblivious to the supposed faults so many people here have with it.
