Yo soy Betty, la fea

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

OK, as a rule telenovelas are fun to watch, at least for a few minutes, because they are always so bad! There is only one plot from which all telenovelas spring and the acting is almost always completely overblown. Betty La Fea, in contrast, is actually a good novela, which is a rare thing. Most of the actors are pretty good and, above all, Ana Maria Orozco does a brilliant job playing Betty. This is a funny show and I would definitely recommend it. I watch it daily to keep up with the Spanish I learned while living in Peru and I have even managed to hook my roommates on the show, though none of them speak or understand Spanish.

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!!

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.

Saying that I am RATHER NOT a fan of Latin soap operas is like saying that I am RATHER NOT a pink elephant. Sometimes I just leave my TV on without any special reason, just for having some buzz behind. "Betty" (released as "Ugly girl" in Poland) happened to be that "buzz" and suddenly I found myself turning my head again and again from my computer to my TV. And then I found myself waiting every day for the next chapter of that charming "buzz" :) Maybe this is because "Betty" is more like a comedy than a traditional soap opera. A Cinderella-like story given with a huge dose of humor. Nice characters, funny love story, good dialogues, good music, good actors job - what more do you need when watching a good comedy ? "Betty" did something to me - still being RATHER NOT a fan of soap operas I will always watch at least several episodes before switching my TV off and spreading my opinion about the next stupid opera on TV.
