I'm watching Ugly Betty and I quite like it but to be honest, she's not really ugly. She's just wearing braces. Which rather undermines the concept.

Ah, but does she then unpin her hair, take off her glasses, and do the hair-throw of slow-mo sexiness? ;-)

The point about braces (unlike glasses and bad hair) is that they are inherently temporary in nature, so there is a limit to how long you can delay the reveal. This is why it's originally a telenovela, which has a finite lifespan, rather than a full length soap/comedy. God knows how long the US will spin it out now it's a hit.
