I got some bad news today, news that doesn't directly affect me but makes me very sad for someone else, and so tonight I've been kind of moping around online, trying to find something comforting. I found a few things:

My favorite dance sequence from Strictly Ballroom, Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps. No matter how many times I see it, it still makes me hold my breath a little bit. Fantastic.



Remember that episode of Ugly Betty where Daniel was all devastated over being dumped and Betty was determined to make him feel better, and so she arranged a date with him with Gisele, but evil Amanda canceled it, and so Betty met him instead and they ended up running around New York City and crashing wedding receptions and singing karaoke to get their meal half off, proving that somewhere down the line, they very clearly are mfeo? Wasn't that AWESOME? From that episode, a clip of Daniel and Betty singing I Got You Babe.



This sequence from the Babu Bhatt episode of Seinfeld, you know, the one where Elaine takes an IQ test for George and the Dream Cafe opens down the street from Jerry and, well, wackiness ensues.

I've never watched Ugly Betty, but I used to watch the German version, Verliebt in Berlin (In Love in Berlin). They are both based on Yo Soy Betty La Fea from Colombia. Here's the German Betty (except she was named Lisa):



I guess there are also Indian, Israeli, Russian, Turkish, Mexican, Dutch, Spanish, and Greek versions, with French, Belgian, and Croation versions on the way. Betty is sweeping the globe!

And that is your daily dose of TV trivia...

It was nice talking to you today. I'm so excited about your visit! Talk to you soon to make some plans!

Yay, I can't WAIT to visit you! Did you like the German version of Ugly Betty? The American version is adorable.

I love that moment, in particular the part where Kramer says, "Well, I really think you're WRONG!"
