Who knew that the hit series Ugly Betty would turn out to be the beautiful swan that it is. Without a doubt, Ugly Betty Season 2 is just as enjoyable as the first.

America Ferrara who plays the role of Betty Suarez has taken the age old adage of inner beauty to new heights.

Ugly Betty Season 2 is filled with a steady stream of storylines. Its soap opera-ish quality means there is constant drama between several characters on the show. This makes this television show hot and fresh; never stale.

In the second season of Ugly Betty, Betty's family copes with the lost of her sister's fiancé and nephew's father. Meanwhile Betty's father Ignacio is stuck in Mexico hoping to make it back to the States.

Betty's love life is turned inside out and heartache is imminent no matter what she decides. Daniel Meade continually falls in love with the wrong woman and the one most notable in Ugly Betty Season 2 is Wilhelmina's sister played by Gabrielle Union.

Mother Meade is still on the run but determined to keep her family together and bring down big bad Wilhelmina.

As always we have Wilhelmina plotting to take over Mode Magazine. Whether it's by marrying into the Meade family or any other scheme she can come up with. Don't underestimate Wilhelmina as you will soon see in this season of Ugly Betty.

The two men in Betty's life this season are Henry and newcomer Gino. In this season we see Betty began to spread her wings. Hard lessons are learned, devilish schemes are concocted and splashes of humor are thrown in where you don't expect them.

The writing of young untainted love is captured beautifully. Betty Suarez reminds you of when you were young and loved hard and threw caution to the wind and tugs at your heartstrings when she suffers her deepest heartbreak.

Don't forget we have the top notch love to hate villainess Wilhelmina Slater played superbly by Vanessa Williams. You couldn't have a complete season without the wild and silly antics of office staff Amanda and Marc. The Suarez family warms your heart and shouldn't be missed.

There are some shocking revelations and turn of events that you don't expect. Will the Meade Empire survive it? Will Mode? Will the Suarez family? You'll have to watch the Ugly Betty Season 2 DVD to find out.
