Hi Bloggers, I'm going to talk about a TV show I watched when I was younger. I was in the 2th grade when I watched the first chapter of a Colombian TV show called "Betty la fea". It was so famous. I remember that I watched it with my family and I liked it so much. It was about a girl who graduated in economics, and had the highest academic achievement in the best Colombian university. But when she started looking for a job, nobody employed her because she was so ugly, and nobody thought she could be intelligent either. Finally , she was employed by a fashion business called "Ecomoda", not for her curriculum vitae, but the real reason was because her boss was such a womanizer and his fiancée needed to take her for to be sure that her boyfriend wouldn't have an affair with his secretary.
I liked this show for many reasons: It was so wholesome, it adresses a contemporany theme, that of "the prejudice and discrimination", it has many lessons for us (as society) and it was also so funny! I enjoyed it!
It was originally televised between 1999-2001, but on public television it was trasmitted on many other occasions. I think that I watched it three or four times on the internet, I never got bored with it.
And here's a protagonist picture (I don't think she was so ugly, but meh!) and my favourite scene from the show. It's so funny! I hope you enjoy! :)
