Description:

Premiering in 2006, 'Ugly Betty' about kind-hearted ugly duckling Betty Suarez, is the latest incarnation of a truly global phenomenon that started life as a Colombian telenovela in 1999. This book asks what the Betty phenomenon can tell us about the international circulation of locally produced TV fictions.
