2009 is now upon us and hopefully, this year will be as eventful and newsworthy as it was last year for Michael Urie and Ugly Betty fans in general as well. As ever, I will keep you up to date with developments involving Michael on UB and outside of it, as well as recap on the last 3 Betty episodes.

On Fanpop, I have now added some Michael and Marc icons in the icons section of the Michael Urie spot, along with the other fan art. I created these especially for you to use as avators and such on various message and forum boards. You are free to make use of them as you wish.

On another note, the next couple of days will be of interest to us because coming up is the People's Choice awards- and Ugly Betty is nominated for best comedy-, and next week Thursday in the US, season 3 of the show resumes with the Marc and Betty themed episode: 'Dressed for Success' . 

And so even though the holidays are officially over now, Ugly Betty is (finally) back on TV in the US; hopefully, it shouldn't be too long for Channel 4 to follow suit by airing the third season of the show. As ever, as soon as I get hold of details as to when it debuts, I will let you folks in the UK know about it, ASAP.

Btw, I wish all you Michael fans around the world a happy 2009 and fingers crossed, we'll see more of him as we did last year.

seasons greetings to you all

Again, sorry for the lack of updates but as you are probably aware of, season 3 of Ugly Betty is on hiatus until early in the new year when it resumes. I created these, especially as Xmas is here at last and you can view these on the Fanpop website. Also, after much searching, I finally managed to track down Marc St James related screencaps for one of the season 3 episodes I hadn't been able to post beforehand titled: 'Crimes of Fashion'. And so I am up to date with posting those ones. I will also post Season's 2 'Jump', as well. As you are aware of, Kinga didn't post any episode screencaps for Season 2 on here, but only episode stills 1- 15 and season 2 had in total 18, and that season was shortened because of the Writer's Strike that took place, last year.

On the Michael Urie Fanpop spot, I have posted the last set of 2 episode screencaps for 'The Kids are alright' and 'Betty's Baby Bump' from last season,- with only 'Jump' to go, and so if anyone is interested in seeing them visit Fanpop.

Many thanks go out to Ugly Is In for making these season 2 screencaps avaliable and Heka Grainger, member of the Ugly Betty Community on Live Journal for posting those season 3 screencaps for Ugly Betty. It is much appreciated.

To all you Michael fans, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

ugly betty marc- related season 3 screencaps and fan art

Posted on 16 Dec 2008 by mswaichingliu || 0 comments

I have managed to locate all but one of the episodes of season 3 of Ugly Betty, with regards to episode screencaps and have posted all the Marc St James ones in the Michael Urie Fan Pop Gallery section. I'll try to get hold of the 'Crimes of Fashion' ones but I did manage to post a few promo photos friom it on there.

And so if anyone is interested in seeing them, as I couldn't post them on this site myself, visit Fanpop and google 'Michael Urie' and there should be a dedicated fan spot to our man from Ugly Betty. I will also make avaliable the remaining season 2 screen caps, of which have not been posted on this site.

Also on there are tons of photos and fan art, of which I've created especially and made avaliable for you to download/ print off. I will make more of them and post them on there and so  i'd urge you to keep an eye out for them.

As ever, the web address is as follows:

ugly betty season 3; Episodes 7-9 recap

Posted on 22 Nov 2008 by mswaichingliu || 0 comments

Crush’d-

 

Plot/ story summary:

Betty works overtime to get the attention of her cute neighbour, struggling musician Jesse (guest star Val Emmich). Meanwhile, Betty's life gets even more complicated when a maxed out and suddenly homeless Amanda becomes her temporary roommate. And in other Mode developments, Marc vacillates when Cliff (guest star David Blue) wants them to move in together.

 

Comments: This has to be my least favourite episode that I have watched so far this season. Betty discovering her room mate Amanda has been making out with her ‘crush’ Jesse, and to our horror, Marc cheating on Cliff with some musclebound hunk. The Marc and Cliff storyline appalled and infuriated many Marc fans and Marc and cliff shippers’, who felt angry at the way in which Cliff was brought back, after his long absence from the show, just so that he could be cheated on by Marc. This was bad writing on the writers part, in regards to Marc and Cliff and in sabotaging Michael’s character. Although, I did like the Amanda and Betty friendship towards the end when the two made up.

 

Ratings out of 10- 5

 

Tornado Girl-

 

Plot summary:

Betty needs Daniel's help to prevent an issue of Mode from shipping that could result in a PR nightmare for the magazine. The problem is, he's unreachable at a company retreat. Meanwhile, Hilda starts a clandestine beauty salon when the city turns down her permit for a legal business, and Connor's fiance (guest star Sarah LeFleur) meets the Modies.

 

Comments: The scenes with marc, Amanda and Betty were great- only problem was they were only shortlived. In addition many watchers suddenly noticed Marc’s ‘awful’ haircut, which made him resemble the fifth member of the Beatles and had briefly taken place of his trademark curls. Probably the most memorable moment throughout that episode was Marc and Betty’s talk in the photocopy room and Marc’s admission to her of him sleeping with another guy at her party. Although the scene with Cliff walking away in tears, after Marc had told him, was a very sad image.

 

*My rating: 9

 

When Betty Met Y.E.T.I-

 

Plot summary:  Competition gets fierce when Betty and Marc both apply to YETI, the Young Editors Training Program that could be their ticket out of assistant-land...but there's only room for one of them. Meanwhile Justin makes an unlikely friend, Daniel finds himself attracted to Molly (guest star Sarah Lafleur) and Wilhelmina does her best to get Connor's (Grant Bowler) attention.

 

Comments: I adored this episode; if anything, this will rank in my top 5 or 3 favourite season 3 episodes of Ugly Betty. I actually liked both their concepts for their respective magazines, I couldn’t choose between them. And Marc and Betty both got into Y.E.T.I in the end…. hoorah! The ending was just so sweet though; the pair of them talking to each other on the phone, sitting at their desks, whilst also looking at each other at the same time. Just cute.

 

*My rating: 10!
