Why TV on DVD?

When TV series began popping up on DVD, I knew it was the start of something great! Not only did this format allow viewers to relive an entire season, but those who never had the opportunity to watch a series could finally see what all the hype was all about and view each episode at their luxury.

Ugly is the New Beautiful

For as long as I can remember, skinny, beautiful women have invaded magazine covers, movies and television screens. Young girls have grown up thinking they needed to fit that image. Times are changing and the brilliant minds at ABC realized that the time was right to introduce a new character that would forever change the look of television. Betty Suarez may not be the quintessential beauty, but she is beautiful in every way that counts. Bravo ABC!
