I’ve been watching back episodes (Season 1 & 2) of Ugly Betty from a DVD that I got in the Philippines. The cost was only 65 peso ($1.50) per disk. But now I want to watch season 3, so I went online to see if there are any web sites that will allow me to watch on line. The following account is absolutely true; I didn’t make up any of it. This all takes place after I did the search “watch Ugly Betty on line” on Google and went to ABC’s Televisions’ web page and selected to view “Ugly Betty.”
Blue: Is what Web Page wanted
Green: Is what I typed into the appropriate space
Red: Is what I said out loud
Black: is what I did

I Click on the picture, Nothing, I search the whole damn page and there is nowhere where you can watch the video!! I go back to the “Home page” NOTHING! I go to my “Play List” which shows that the Episode is there and is the only one on the list. I click on the FAQ; there is absolutely nothing on how to actually in fact watch it. I then go to “Contact us” and send an email to the web site and simply ask “How do it watch the video in my “Play list.”
All our Emails are answered within 2 working days.
Five days later I receive an Email
Dear Eat Shit, Thank you for your interest in our programming. Unfortunately you cannot watch Videos on “Watch TV Shows online” web site. We only let our members “Rate and Review” the shows.
Sincerely
Martha
PS How did you get “Eat Shit” as a “User Name”? We have had numerous requests for that User Name and you were the lucky one.
WHAT??? I’ve wasted 5 days of my life just trying to watch one goddamn episode of “Ugly Betty” on your stupid web site and this is what I get for all my efforts???
If that wasn’t enough, two days ago I received an Email form “Watch TV Shows Online” asking if I wanted to rate their web page!!!
I really wanted to but when I went to their web page they did not have the following choices:
Is our Web page the worst Web page on the entire Inter net?
Is our Web page the worst Web page in the entire Galaxy?
Is our Web page the worst Web page in the entire know Universe?
Is our Web page the worst Web page in any Universe from another dimension?
I still do not know where to watch “Ugly Betty” so if anyone knows please let me know.
Later
Lenny
