Bettyful!
Posted on September 10, 2008 - Filed Under Drama, Things I love |
It’s been years since I’ve last watched a series from the Philippines. Before I came across Korean, Taiwanese, and Japanese drama, I didn’t mind watching a series that runs for years. I thought it was just normal, and I was surprised that drama from other countries only have around 15-20+ episodes. It’s a good thing that they no longer do that.
One new dramedy (dramatic-comedy) from ABS-CBN that I find so interesting is I Love Betty La Fea, based on Columbian series Yo soy Betty, la fea. I love Betty’s very optimistic character, and I love Bea Alonso portraying Betty. She may not be good-looking but as what they’ve said, she’s beautiful inside. ;) There are many good actors and actresses in the series, including Ai-ai delas Alas playing the role as Betty’s mother.
I attempted to watch other versions but I prefer this one, where I can relate as a Pinoy, and seeing Philippines through this series makes me feel at home. ![]()

I actually posted the trailer for I love Betty La Fea in my google shares the other day, as it looked like yet another good addition to the international set of series. While I don’t know much spanish at all, I have gone through 2 of the series, La Fea Más Bella (mexican), and the Yo soy Betty, la fea (the columbian production you mentioned). I had to have my wife guide me through them, but they were still enjoyable. I still have yet to check out the US production, Ugly Betty.
