Just caught up on the last three episodes.

Cliff is a doll! Love him.

I think the way they had Justin acting out made sense--they weren't trying to make him straight at all.

Judith Light needs more screen time.

Still crushing on Henry.

I do love my Henry, but I've always had a soft spot for Freddy Rodriguez (aka the sandwich guy), so I'm naturally jealous of Betty!

Hey, I couldn't see last week's episode...could someone sum it up for me? Thanks.

My only real problem with Henry is that it's ridiculous to see a guy that looks like him in the role. No one can see under those glasses (which is always tv shorthand for "smart" and/or "socially awkward") that the guy is hot and has a smokin' body? At least with Betty the effort has been made to make it look she's actually homely, but the Henry stuff just feels a little disingenuous.

Yeah, but he's playing it as if he's sweet, nerdy and really doesn't think he's hot at all. It's always the guys who are not taken with their looks that are the most attractive. I know what you mean, but I think Chris Gorham is endearing and winning in the role.

"If you don't have Spamalot don't even step into this room."
"Broadway and London."

Brilliant.

I'm loving all the Broadway references tonight. Did you notice the kid with the Spamalot playbills was wearing a Jersey Boys shirt?

I noticed it, as a David Hyde Pierce fan.

And I indeed am watching this show with you, people.

Okay am I the only one who sobbed uncontrollably at that last scene?? WOW!!! Go, Betty!!!

i cried again.

...but do you see why i'm disspapointed that they rushed marc & cliff?
i mean, they are already having their break-up in their SECOND EPISODE together.

& then they will reunite in their THIRD episode together.

& then where can their storyline go after that?
break up again? adopt a kid?

Loved tonight's episode. But I must be perfectly blunt:

BRADFORD MUST DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I missed that last scene. I went to take out the trash at the wrong time in the commercial break. I came back and it was off!

I'm so glad Justin didn't trade his Ethel Merman Gypsy playbill for Harvey Fierstien in Fiddler. Smart kid.

I was such a fan during season 1. Just not as into it this season. Tonight's episode didn't do it for me. May be because I have seen Wicked twice, the last half just seemed like a commercial for the show, right down to the shot that started from the CD cover at the souvenier stand.

speakin of ads, did ya'll see the giant LITTLE MERMAID sign in the establishing exterior shot?

Mattbrain: Poor Alan Dale if Bradford does die, he just can't make it through 2 seasons of a show, he died during the 2nd season of The O.C.

Loved this weeks episode, except for the shot of Henry getting the cab, and only because Juniors, the restaurant across the street in the shot is on 45th St. in New York, and the Gershwin Theater where Wicked is playing is on 51st St. That always bugs me on shows filmed in L.A. that take place in N.Y., they always get the streets wrong.

""If you don't have Spamalot don't even step into this room."
"Broadway and London."

Brilliant. "

One minor quibble though. London shows do not have "Playbills" per se. The London programs are a bit bigger and they aren't free. They run about £2 -£3 (approx $4.00 - $6.00). From what I could see it looked as though Justin's friend had two New York Playbills.

I loved the montage that fit with "I'm Not That Girl" I literally got teary eyed. It was really beautiful.

I loved loved how the kids were trading playbills: I also loved that the chubby kid had a Jersey Boys t-shirt [just my personal favorite touch.] I was wearing a Spamalot t-shirt when they mentioned Spamalot, I felt special.

Eden and Megan were great. When Betty and Henry were in the bubble, was pretty hilarious.

The last scene was fantastic: Go Betty! "Defy gravity" with Henry!

Overall, I throughly enjoyed it. =)

I loved this episode. I especially liked the shot of the conductor, Bryan Perri. He accompanied Daniel Reichard when Daniel did his concert in Keansburg last year. It was fun to see him.

I loved the episode SO MUCH!!!

Now it really is my favorite show on TV *lol*

The I'M NOT THAT GIRL montage was perfect!!!

Only a little question... No FOR GOOD? *sniffles*

"Holy crap!" *lol* Go Eden

I loved this episode, but I'm pretty much at my Betty-Henry saturation point. Give us more Christina!

Great episode. I could hear theatre nerds all over the world having orgasms. Along with Betty, too. Way to go, and with Christopher Gorham no less. She landed the hottest guy at Mode. How is that even possible?

I tried to like this show because I think America Ferrera is such a talent. But it just drives me crazy. I can see why people like it, but to me it tries to have it both ways, total camp then switch gears in the last 15 minutes to make it all sweet. Did I miss the episode when the nephew returned to normal? What happened to the rebel? Last night's episode turned me off to not only Ugly Betty, but Wicked. That Glinda was just terrible.
