Great episode!
I don't think Amanda's consoling was random, it's been more than hinted at that she has romantic feelings and wouldn't mind being more than just a fling or friend with him. The show is so wonderful at even developing the caricatures. I'm so glad that Daniel just said to Betty "You're growing up." I knew she was being too hard on herself!
Roninjoey, according to The Futon Critic, the next Ugly Betty will be 12/6, then repeats starts, although it is subject to change due to the strike.
REMINDER -- UGLY BETTY IS BACK THURSDAY, 6 DEC!
Even better?

Even BETTER - Betty White makes an appearance!
Oh, that clip was hysterical!
But did I hear right -- did Henry say something about Gio and HILDA?!?!?

It would be funnier if Betty White was the one eating ice cream off of Gorham's stomach.

And it would be BETTER if it was ME eating the ice cream

He comes across as such a GOOD BOY, I just can't help but melt.
And the fact that he's as cute as a bug's butt is just icing on the cake!
I have to tape it due to work, but come 9 o'clock: BETTY-TIME!
Damn writer's strike needs to end: Ugly Betty, Gossip Girl are now going into re-runs or atleast soon.
But reruns are -- or they have been -- the norm for this time of year the last few years. First run episodes didn't return until mid-late January, if memory serves. Of course, the strike will probably mean no new episodes until its over, but I don't think people will really "feel" the loss until after the holidays.
Re-runs usually start by mid-December, some (very few) shows even run new episodes until the week before Christmas. Plus the fact that we know there is a big chance this could be the last episode of the season for many shows, makes everyone worry more.
Most shows finish taping by March, I believe. So if the strike doesn't end soon, we probably won't get new episodes until the next season.
I loved this episode and laughed out loud several times. (When Betty shoved her face into the ice cream, then the chocolate syrup - that was hilarious!)
When they were all in their Paintball garp - I wanted them so badly to play in the office - and then they did! It was great. (Though I didn't want Amanda and Nick to get together AT ALL...yuck)
This episode verified that Henry, while very adorable, is shaped like an upside down triangle.

I thought last night's episode was the funniest of the season. Vanessa Williams just gets better and better each week. I'd love to see her take home the Emmy this year.
There's just something about the men that Betty attracts that seems disingenuous. With all the effort they go through to make her "ugly," I find it ridiculous that all they do is slap those glasses on Henry. Come on, with that face and body, Betty's and that woman whose name I forget that's having his baby are really the best he can do?
I know it's a fantasy and all and yeah yeah yeah inner beauty and whatnot, but do they think America (the country, not Ferrara) can't handle two "ugly" people in a romance? It just seems disingenuous.

i loved Willy singing folksongs, that was a SCREAM.
& then the bettywhite youtube remix!!!!!!
BUT
i was grossed out that they inserted ads for a movie ("27 DRESSES") INTO the script...not once, but twice.
it made me feel dirty.

Vanessa was great last night! I used to have to sing that song in Hebrew school. I knew they were going to go there with the frozen pop storyline, though.
Sixty seconds of Judith Light is just not enough.

"The bulls give me a wider berth."
Last night's quips were as good as ever. Here are my favorite Betty bites, with the top two spots reserved for the genius that is Betty White:
8. Daniel, while fighting Alexis for Bradford's old chair: 'Why are you so strong? What, did they give you super-strength when they installed your vagina?'
7. Christina, after hearing that Betty was having a surprise date with Henry: 'Oh, the last surprise I got on a date was the wife knocking on the motel door.'
6. Christina, being her normal beefcake-obsessed self: 'I love James Marsden. I wanna bake him naked and eat him for dessert.'
5. Marc, assuring Willy he can change her public image: 'Come on! It's the media age. We can do it overnight! Britney Spears shaves something or shows something or shows something shaved, and it's around the world in seconds. Trust me, lady, I can make you Mother Teresa — with better boobs.'
4. Justin, after dressing Henry in a new outfit: 'See what I did here? I mixed a little bit of prep with a little bit of gangsta, and I found an edge where there was none.'
3. Kenny, rhyming just before the big paintball showdown: 'She's Alexis! Big as Texas! She knows what it's like to be both sexes!'
2. Betty White, soliciting help after being knocked to the ground by Willy: 'Yes, it's Betty White, jackass. I'm on the ground here. Call 911!'
1. Betty White, on her legions of dedicated fans: 'Well, I adore 'em. Except for the few sickos who write lesbian fan fiction about me and Bea Arthur.'
You forgot the end!
Wilhimena: I've been saving this for a rainy day... and my God, Marc. It's pouring.
