Ugly Betty 9/27/2007 (S02E01) "How Betty Got Her Grieve Back"

Is Ugly Betty still free on abc.com like last year?

Eric Mabius sure has some ugly feet!!!

I was shocked at the ending. I thought Santos survived.

Absolutely fantastic episode. Was thinking that no new show this year so far has come close to what Ugly Betty was out of the box last season.

I know ... when I saw him at the beginning I screamed - HE'S ALIVE !! Yeah !!! Was so excited....

wow - what a powerful ending ... when you realized he wasn't. Hubby said he figured it out - since she wouldn't let him leave the room. He kept asking me over and over - why.

Damn.. I forgot to tivo it! I missed it.

I was really sad when we discovered that Santos had died. I began to like his character more and more as he grew as a person, even to the point where he was defending Justin.

The telenovela scene was so funny! And so was fat Amanda

I screwed up and my TiVo deleted it to make room for Grey's Anatomy.

Last season, the episodes were on ABC.com but not for several days. So keep checking maybe.

I never expected to like this last year -- and it grew on me qlb. I agree--this is the best show this season!

That was my reaction exactly. I actually cheered out loud when they showed him coming out of the bathroom, and I gasped when they cut to her alone in the dark room. They really got me.

I loved fat Amanda and Mark dressed as Willy. Actually there were so many great moments, starting with Betty's dream in the beginning.

I made the mistake of glancing at this thread before I watched the episode. Certainly my mistake, but I saw dswallow state "They really had me going with Santos..." and I immediately closed the browser window. Once I saw them in the room together, I knew exactly what he meant and what was going to be the end result.

I also knew the Crying Game, Sixth Sense, and The Others' twists before seeing them, so it's nothing new to me. Of course, "Fight Club" was left intact and I was surprised by it!

Very good ep - Amada seeing her swinging parents - very funny

Filled with some pathos to keep some of the dramedy in, I had a feeling they might do a Santos switch at the end but I fell into the trap that she was just afraid to let him out of the room - bad break for the actor to be nixed on the premiere of the season on a hit show.
