Betty was one of my favorite characters in the early days, but they’ve made her so bitter that it’s hard to sympathise with her anymore. I think they’ve kind of written themselves in a corner with her. I almost think it’s best to let her character go away for a while and re-think what they want to do with her, because she’s become fairly irrelevant to the rest of the story and her life with Henry isn’t interesting enough (yet) to follow on its own.

I’m loving the new direction of SCDP, with Don beginning a new re-invention and business-world celebrity. The new offices are amazing as a set, with all the double doors and glass. i have a good feeling about this year.

Also, Betty may be awkward around her children, but Henry’s mother is a TOTAL monster. Ew.

I feel badly for Betty. Don was such a horrid husband, and I don’t blame her one bit for marrying a man who loves her. However, it would be great if she could find a way to make her character have some real impact on the show. She needs to stand up to stand out.
