    A very witty novela ~ Cinderella Story ~ Very entertaining

    I hate novelas and even U.S. soap operas. I had only watched one before Yo Soy Betty La Fea.

    This "novela" is absolutely wonderful, very comical and entertaining. The actors and actresses do a superb job and I actually found myself taping the episodes that I would miss because of other commitments.

    Betty (Ana Maria Orozco)who in reality is a beautiful young woman, does a wonderful job at playing an ugly secretary...

    Betty is over ... and I'm hoping that the writers of the novela will come up with a Part II or a series.
