alas, a miss (golden globes live blog)
I think I'm not allowed to swear on this blog, so instead I'll just say "darn."
DARN!
DARN DARN DARN!
Maybe if I'd seen and become hooked on "Ugly Betty," I wouldn't be so chagrined right now. But I'm a staunch supporter of "The Office," which I firmly believe to be one of the best shows -- comedy, drama or otherwise -- on TV, and to see it lose out to "Ugly Betty" ... well, it stings.
I have a beef with "Betty," to be honest. I know it's based on a hugely popular telenovela and all, but every time I see a preview or hear about the premise, I think, "Dude, that's a total ripoff of 'The Devil Wears Prada.' Except, you know, without Meryl Streep."
And "The Devil Wears Prada" without Meryl Streep is kind of pointless.
I could be wrong. But fashion world? Eager underling? Evil boss? You do the math.

How could Ugly Betty top Desperate Housewives????? This is some of the best DH work ever!

"Desperate Housewives" is one of those shows (and there's more than one) that always makes me say, "Is that show still on?"
I never hear about it anymore. I rarely ever see promos for it, despite the fact that two of my must-see shows are on NBC.
Maybe it's falling through the cracks?
(Though I have to say, nothing can top "The Office." No matter what the Hollywood Foreign Press says.)

I'll respectfully agree to disagree!
