No offense to the betty/daniel shippers but the day those two hook up is the day i (and probably most of america) will stop watching. I really like how betty and daniel are slowly becoming like family, even though their backgrounds are so different. I like how they act like brother and sister and if they were to ever hook up, i would gag. it just doesn't seem right.

in the original series and in some other countries' versions, people overwhelmingly didn't like it when they got together, so much so that Eric Mabius even said that he doesn't think it will happen. they have such a nice friendship, if they got together it would ruin everything. and they just don't have the romantic chemistry that she has with henry. i want betty and daniel to take over the publishing world together and become like family, not lovers. that's just too weird and cliche.


Well at this point that's very true. But I'm still a shipper, and the way I'd like it to happen is that slow build up that's been happening along. They both care so much for each other and that's the best relationship buildup I've ever seen in my entire life. It's the first time I've seen anything like this since things are always done the hot, passionate, hate-each-other-in-the-beginning-and-get-on-each-others-nerves-but-get-together-at-the-last-minute type of deals. Of course I don't mind either or, but it'd be so nice and sweet if they did get together in my opinion.

^ No. To keep Betty and Daniel as FRIENDS ONLY and even like FAMILY would give me MORE of a warm fuzzy feeling inside. to know that two people who are very different, from different economic classes and even cultural backgrounds could become like family, almost like blood siblings, is so much better (imo) and less cliche. for them to get romantically involved would taint the whole purity of their relationship. i think a lot of viewers wouldn't buy it either (just like the original audiences didn't buy it).

And besides, Daniel doesn't have even half of the chemistry that Henry has with Betty. "Just something i know." smile.gif

you guys forgot to quote mark: ".... but you love your wang" - ROFL laugh.gif

random thoughts:

betty's supposed to be unfashionable ... but i was drooling on her patchwork bag ... is that Lucky?

hunter - puahahahahaha! when he first appeared as sofia's fiance my immediate reaction was "EW" - he looks like a Ken doll." there was just something greasy about him ... and last night when we all saw who he really is - that just explains why! anyway, the club's name was funny - BOYLESQUE. so cheesy, very appropriate.

wilhemina - i missed last week's episode so i was surprised to see she was with some guy. (was he a fling? or an old flame?) who knew that willie could be so nice when she's in love?! but ahhh, the honeymoon was short and the b+ch is back ... which is good for us viewers. nice wilhemina = boring.

sofia - well good to know that she's not poifect after all! yes what she did to Daniel was totally mean but i just love how i was (and i'm sure most of the vieweres were) surprised when her real personality was revealed. so many things happened in an hour - that's good TV.

i'm curious about Daniel's dead brother too.

amanda hitting sofia in the elevator ... laugh.gif

another episode without justin sad.gif

and i'm with millie0305, i wouldn't want daniel-betty romance either.

i agree with you completely, right from the start i never felt like anything romantic could develop from them. they just don't have that chemistry.
and Henry hahahaha...he will always be Harrison from "Popular" to me...

i can't wait to watch tonight's ep (if clubbox ever decides to speed up and actually finish downloading dry.gif )

same here. that must be why it's so hard for me to be accept them as more than just friends and coworkers. wacko.gif plus, they're too alike. i like it better when opposites attract.biggrin.gif

Actually, I think she meant that there is NO romantic vibe between Betty and DANIEL. She wasn’t talking about Henry. And I *don’t* think that Henry and Betty are too alike at all. He’s from Arizona, he takes her out to eat sushi and he has some kind of weird capacity to know all sorts of interesting facts. He is similar to her in that they both are like kindred spirits (like dressing up for Halloween) but different because he offers her a world outside of Queens. Betty is always taking care of people, her dad, her sister, and Daniel. Henry is someone who can take care of her I think. And their chemistry is fire!! Even mainstream magazines are talking about how Henry/Betty are hotter than any other TV couple out right now.

^ Oh God. If they start to make Betty and Daniel become a couple, I will boycott the show. I don't think that I could watch that. It would mess up everything that makes the show so much fun to watch. I prefer them as close friends. not BF/GF (eww)

Chris/Henry isn't coming back until 2/1 BUT the episode where he and Betty have their lunch date is re-running on 1/25. Can't wait to see some Henry action. I love those two together. It's TV magic when they are on screen (Henry & Betty, I mean)

just saw this thread and got me posting...

hehhe... i just like America Ferrera and her confidence... shes good in Beautiful Women Have Curves and Sisterhood of Travellin Pants, never caring about her size even if it was emphasized more which makes her another of the best... not ur pretty blue eyed and blond actress but she has a say...

COngRaTS TO her for Winning Best acTress in Golden Globe for this series, Ugly Betty...

I was able to see the columbian / Spanish (?) Version, Betty La Fea, and it got me hooked... tongue.gif
