Yo soy Betty, la fea

We are in Israel like novelas. we have a channel that only play novels -Better and worse like "la usurpadora". when betty came no one thoutht that it could succeed here, and it came instead of "Los Buscars De Siempre" which was a great novela so it was a big shoes to get into and the fact that it's colombians didn't help too. But - all the israel's people like it! We like Betty, Armando and Berta, like the music, Hugo and all. We laugh every episode many times. I say it's the best novela in the world.

Gotta say it's the best telenovela ever made in the history. The acting, script, cinematography, music, plot, storyline, etc.... All are perfect and I don't find any minus from this phenomenal novela. Ana Maria Orozco as Betty really great. Jorge Abello as Armando Mendoza also amazing. As well as the other casts (Luis Mesa as Daniel, Ricardo Velez as Mario Calderon, Natalia Ramirez as Marcela Valencia, etc). One of the most memorable scene is when Betty present the company's real balance, it's a masterpiece scene that you won't forget for the rest of life. Yes, there are many remakes of this novela, and I can guarantee that no one, and never, can beat the original. Watch the original, not the remakes!

10/10

Being a housewife,I've always watched opera soaps drama from Mexico,Venezuela and Colombia on tv.But this one was really excellent.It makes me excited everyday of what will happened the next episode.My husband hates to watch drama as he always knows what the story line would be like.Yo Soy Betty La Fea really amazed him and at times he's more excited than me.Even my two years old daughter will tell me,"Mummy...Betty!"when the show started.All the casts did a tremendous job especially Betty and Armando.Most Malaysians are talking about how good the show was.Can't wait for the next sequel of Eco Moda 2001 which I've checked on the net!!

I am not the type of person who sits in front of the TV to watch soap opera all the afternoon, actually I hate with passion soap operas, they are dumb, cheezy and boring, but this one is so different... I started to see it in Ecuador, just because there was nothing on tv that night, I saw the first episode, and I loved it! It's not the typical soap opera when the maid falls in love with the owner, then she has an affair with him and gets pregnant, then she finds out that she is the real owner of everything, then goes crazy and gives away the baby (she got pregnant with the boss) and then she tries to find that baby, and blah blah blah The main characters are Armando Mendoza (Jorge Abello) and Betty (Ana Maria Orozco) the boss and the secretary of a fashion company, they are great in their roles, and so is the supporting cast. We still have the "Cinderella" plot here, but it is so well written that you don't even realize! It's hilarious, sometimes a little sad, and it's always smart, what else can you ask in a soap opera???

This is the latin american soap-opera fenomeno. The ratings for this soap-opera in every country has been over the 42.0 every where, and the closing chapter (in those countries where it has finished) has rated over the 50.0. Politicians, newspeople and the guy in the street, they all got together to watch this truly fabulous TV-program, and forget everydays worries, to laugh with the adventures of Betty and their colleagues. This is not a traditional soap opera, in which you need to be beautiful to have success. In this one, the viewer identifies himself with Betty and all the girls in the "Cuartel de las feas" (The ugliest ones headquarter), in their challenge to probe the world that beauty has nothing to do with success and love.
