La fea más bella

Yes, this remake is funnier than the original, but hasn't anybody noticed how the producer's decision to change the personality of certain characters actually changes the whole story??? In the original version, Betty is an incredibly smart girl, and gets really nervous around people, obviously because her father kept her from socializing..ever. But over all those nerves, you could see her intelligence, there was no doubt about that. But this version just changed the whole thing. Angelica Vale makes the character sound childish, instead of nervous. That goofy laugh doesn't help. Betty's laugh made her seem geeky, which was the whole point, but Letty's laugh makes her seem stupid. Honestly, seeing Lety act so ignorant makes it impossible to see her as a smart girl. I love Angelica Vale, by the way, and I blame the producers and directors for this one. Same thing with Lety's mom...the original version made it clear that Betty acted like her father and got her features from his side of the family including her laugh, and Julia, her mom was the normal one, which, believe it or not, helped the story a lot, but making Julieta, Lety's mom, the goofy one in this version just doesn't make it. The story is funny, but I just don't buy it. By the way, adding kids to the story-bad idea.

when i first saw this show on the Spanish channel here in the u.s.a. i was immediately sucked into the show. not only is the theme song so good but the casting is excellent. everything in this show is top quality. i don't know why people say it's low quality. i see nothing low quality.. maybe it's there TV hahah. but no really this show is my favorite and i am so interested in everything this show has to offer. i don't want to name the casting because i forget how to spell there names but i got to say the casting and the main character are superb. i love the way the main character lety acts. when she gets nervous she starts twitching. i just thought it was so funny. i also love the pace of this show. everything is so nice and smooth. everybody in the show looks perfect for the roles. i also love the so called "ugly group" they are so funny and they have this awesome design. i just can't explain everything here.. i give this novela a high rating. also i heard this was a remake of several shows with the same theme. i never saw them and if i did now i probably wouldn't like them. since i saw this one first.

I like it, but you kind of have to be Mexican to get the humor... I think Jaime Camil and Angelica Vale are great comedic actors, and they make their audience connect with them... Here in Mexico the show is a great success, and the musical album it's a hit too... I saw a bad review about this show, and I thought people should know that this is a light fun series to watch , it's not meant to be taken so seriously, but it's definitely a stress reliever, you get caught in the mini adventures of the characters, you want the handsome guy to fall in love with the ugly girl, the ugly girl to become pretty, the end of this story is predictable, but I think is part of it's charm, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

One of the best comedy I ever seen. This is the newer and funnier version of "Betty la Fea"(Betty the ugly). Angelica Vale who plays as Letty is very funny and talented!! This show is about the smart yet ugly Letty who is very loyal yet in love with the President of the Company. Don Fernando is the handsome yet a player. He's the president of the company that produces T.V Comms. Fernando relies on Letty a lot since she's very smart and very loyal to him. Angelica Vale, who is a comedian herself is doing a great job on her character. All the actors/actress in this show are great including the gay guy Luigi(Sergio Meyer) who in real life is straight. I seen both Betty la Fea and this show yet I love "La Fea mas Bella" because it's way very funny and smart!! Who ever dislike this show has no sense of humor!!!

The first time I saw "La Fea...." sometime in May with my daughter in law who is Cuban. I understand very little Spanish so now I must watch very closely the body language and facial expressions. I find that I understand a little bit more and more. It would be helpful if there would be English captions as this would be helpful in understanding the Mexican dialect. I love Angelica Vale and her mother and father are so genuine. Thomas is a "hoot". I luv Simon'character. I just luv the entire cast. They are all very perfect for each of their roles. Sergio is very talented in his role as Luigi. He is so funny. Dios Mio. Augustin is great as Jaime's business partner. Jaime is so handsome and funny. He and Angelica have such great timing and play their characters so well. I look forward to see Letty transform into a beautiful woman, and I cannot wait to see the expression on Marcia and Alicia's face. I never thought I would arrange my schedule so that I would be home to watch this wonderful novella as much as possible. Thank you. Thank you for opening up a whole new dimension in my life.
