Wouldn't that be amazing if it wasn't actually Bradfords baby, and was just some random kid?
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I?
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I don't have a TV, so I just watch everything online. Was Lindsay Lohan's appearance actually advertised by the network? That would've been kind of a cheap move since the appearance was so small. Or was it just the gossip blogs that hyped it up? I kept thinking she was going to appear again later in the episode, working for Elle, and then she and Betty would have to have some kind of face-off in the softball game or something.
I don't know why everyone is defending Daniel. He's a total slacker and he's terrible at his job, as we've seen time and time again. The only time he succeeds at anything is when Betty does it for him. Alexis and Wilhelmina are doing the right thing by forcing him out. I don't understand how this lazy, disinterested, unintelligent, womanizing guy who only got where he is because he has wealthy, well-connected parents is somehow supposed to be a protagonist or a victim, especially when someone like Wilhelmina wants the editor position so badly, is so talented at the job, and has worked her way up from nothing.

i think they are right to edge daniel out of the leadership position at MODE (tho they sure did do it wrong) because daniel doesnt seem to have any vision for the magazine, its just all about screwing models to him.

The Lindsay Lohan appearance at the beginning of the episode definitely implied that she would appear later in the episode for some conflict.
Isn't it sad that her career is pretty much over. What a shame.

Lindsay Lohan's appearance was a tease on purpose, she will be back for 4 to 5 episodes when the show comes back in the fall. I thought it was a fun cameo, and Naomi Campbell's bit was great.
The reason they are turning Alexis into such an incredibly despicable and annoying character is because Rebecca Romijn is not going to be part of the show next season anymore, I believe they might write her off the show in the first few episodes. One time I read she was just not a regular and at a later date I read that she simply was off the show. Not sure which one it is, but I certainly hope it's the latter. It's not her fault, it was apparent to me from last season and the beginning of this season that the writers had no clue what to do with the character. She dealt with man issues, then tried to kill her father, then Daniel forgave her, then she was a bitch, I don't know, what a misconceived role! I can't wait for her to be gone.
I strongly disliked this season, there might have been a few episodes I liked (the Victor Garber episode comes to mind) but truly I believe the show is so messy in terms of character development and storylines that it's a turn-off. Last season finale was so strong, this one was just blah. I do hope Alec Mapa comes back to the show next season. He is fantastic.
I wonder what the show will be like with the move to NYC. Word is Pat Fields is back on board and she will be re-designing the look of the show because apparently the ratings were quite disappointing this season compared to those during Season 1.

Speaking of poorly-planned characters that go nowhere, whatever happened to Michael Urie's photographer boyfriend character? Unless I'm mistaken or missed something, he just sort of disappeared from the show, didn't he? Once he stopped actually appearing, Marc made a couple references to "oh, Cliff couldn't be here tonight" in a few episodes, and then they just stopped acknowledging him at all. Kind of disappointing to just completely eliminate the character and the whole storyline with no explanation. It would be funny if Rebecca Romijn suddenly vanished with a similar lack of fanfare.

Yeah, I love Freddy as Gio.... but apparently he won't be on much longer 
I'm kinda annoyed that they might be giving Betty a new love interest so soon. I mean, they overplayed the Henry thing but then don't give us enough of the Gio relationship!
Maybe all the "new love interest" rumors I'm hearing aren't true.... but I read them in entertainment weekly, so....

I thought it was so cute at the end with Daniel and his son and squealed like a silly person when she met her neighbor; he was the sandwich guy in 30 Rock.
For a season premiere though, I understand why you were underwhelmed.

I thought it was great! It accomplished what they had set out to do after the strike - get it centered back on Betty, and have it be about HEART!
And it made me laugh out loud - a few times.
Now, throw in MANY more scenes of the 'coach' without his clothes on, and I'm still hooked for another season!

I don't really have any complaints, but did notice the outrageous number of exterior shots. They really are taking advantage of on-location filming!

I had mixed feelings about the episode. I thought when it was on it was on, but when it was off, it was way off.
Lindsay's role and its resolution were underwhelming, but I thought she did well with what she was given.
I liked the shake-ups at Meade. As always, I thought Marc and Amanda were wonderful (if underused). I may be biased, but any time Ms. Williams comes on the screen I giggle with glee. If this woman doesn't get an Emmy before this show goes off the air there is no justice in this world.

Totally not a patch on the first episode of season 2, but it's a scene-setter if nothing else. I'm utterly dismayed at the complete lack of Gio (he's back in episode 4 apparently, but will that be it? Maybe ) because he is SUPERhot, but hey, at least Jesse's pretty cute. He's got a long way to go to be an improvement on Gio, but then, I didn't think any guy could be better for Betty than Henry, and I was SO gleeful to be proved wrong.
Nah, not much of a start, but it's got room to grow. I think we need to get Betty back into Mode though. Keep it centred, otherwise it could spread, and NOT in a good way.

I liked it... I just didn't love it. Mark and Amanda were underused which I hate.... I did like that little scene with Lindsey Lohan near the end.
Hopefully it will get better.
