Product Description
The complete second season of the kooky American TV comedy series about life in the fashion publishing industry. Betty Suarez (America Ferrera) has always wanted to be a success in the world of fashion publishing, but although she's smart, efficient and hard working, her looks (dental braces, spectacles and bizarre dress sense) have always counted against her. Gaining a position at fashion bible 'Mode Magazine' through sheer determination, Betty now has to prove her worth to colleagues that will stop at nothing to undermine her confidence and position. Episodes comprise: 'How Betty Got Her Grieve Back', 'Family/Affair', 'Betty's Wait Problem', 'Grin and Bear It', 'A League of Their Own', 'Something Wicked This Way Comes', 'A Nice Day for a Posh Wedding', 'I See Me, I.C.U.', 'Giving Up the Ghost', 'Bananas for Betty', 'Zero Worship', 'Odor in the Court', 'A Thousand Words By Friday', 'Twenty-Four Candles', 'Burning Questions', 'Betty's Baby Bump', 'The Kids Are Alright' and 'Jump'.
Synopsis
Equally smart and soapy, this dram-edy starring America Ferrera picked up a pair of Golden Globes for its critically acclaimed first season. Returning for an equally popular second year, TVs most fashionable show continues to follow Betty Suarez (Ferrera) in her career at the fictional Mode magazine. Unlike Mode's staff of vacuous vamps and vixens, Betty relies on her strength of mind and heart to take her places, but remains constantly the brunt of her co-workers jokes for her lack of both fashion sense and a size-00 figure. The usual mis-haps, scandals and faux pas befall Betty and her co-workers in this hilarious follow-up that is brighter, bolder and Bettyer than ever before.This release includes every episode of the second season.

First of all, I really can't compete with the first review on here, as it's fantastic, but I really want to praise Betty as well!
Although season 2 doesn't have such a strong storyline as season 1, hey, it's still Betty! It's still as funny as ever, Marc and Amanda are still brilliant, whether they're together or off scheming by themselves. There are also some very good and unexpected twists in the story, so stay on your toes or you'll get confused! Although the season finale (what I mean by that is the last few episodes) is a bit disappointing, it's almost virtually impossible to go wrong with a bit of Betty.
Overall, it's a great TV show that has given so many people all over the world the confidence to believe in themselves, and it's thoroughly enjoyable. I highly recommend it!

Watched Season 2 while recuperating from spinal surgery. For the Ugly Betty fan this is fun, colourful, ridiculous but leaves you wanting more. Can't wait for the next series.

Season Two of the excellent television series "Ugly Betty" is a marked improvement on the already brilliant season one- with stronger and better character development and more interesting and twisted storylines.
The show has an great mix of comedy moments and a good dose of drama chucked into the mix- there's also a mingling of touching, emotional moments and some heart-racingly great plotlines- it makes for excellent viewing.
Following on from Season One, "Ugly Betty" continues the story of New York underdog Betty who dreams of being an editor for a magazine. The show centres around her adventures as the "ugly" and "fat" girl at America's top fashion magazine 'Mode', working with shallow, stick-thin, martini sipping socialites and arrogant, womanizing men. The characterisation remains to be great, and there is some great character developments during this season- especially Mark, Amanda and Justin who are audience favourites.
The special effects with this season greatly improve from Season One, the writing standard and development of characters is far greater, and the plot lines are far more unique and exciting than those seen in the previous year's programmes.
With better comedy, improved writing and great storylines, fans of the show are sure to adore this season- and for those who are tempted to mingle with the show, this certainly satisfy those appetites. A great season; a great show; and I highly recommend this boxset.

Betty's BACK
Oh Betty :) This series has all the bitchiness, backstabbing and bizzareness of the first series, but unlike the first series, all but abandons any lingering believability. Read more
