Ok, one thing more. Sheila Lawrence kinda tends to give Wilhelmina a human dimension and make her and Daniel work together as colleagues. Like in Fey’s Sleigh Ride, she made them work on the Christams issue together and had that scene in the end with Wilie, Justin and the snow.

Ok, first the things I loved about the episode: The opening scene was great.
Daniel-”Kill the puppies” lmao
Hilda was awesome, would love some more screen time for her and the Suarez family.
Wilie and Daniel blind dinner date was a good idea. I agree with most people. It was nicely done as a friendly colleagues’ ceasefire in order to save the magazine and NOTHING more than that.
Claire and Daniel talk was tuching. I’m so on board for a nice girl, a happy marriage and even kids for Daniel. He deserves some peace.
Kimmie, not so much. But I have to admit, America totally made the storyline work. Like the scene in the cab. That was so S1 Betty. I felt for her. I’m happy Pappi kept her on track, though. I don’t want mean Betty to pop her head in the show again.
That was all ;)

geek: I want to know, what was with the over-the-top Healthy Choice product placement?

It was funny and creepy at the same time.

I agree with many here about Daniel / Willie . IN NO WAY should they ever end up as an item. However, I’m pretty sure what’s going on here is Wilhelmina is trying to get her hands on the other half of the Meade empire, now that she’s got half.

i loved this ep except for the lilo story line.. just didn’t buy it. (i loved lilo in her teen movies, but now her smoking is catching up to her.. a cute little girl with life lines already just doesn’t cut it) Hilda was hilarious.. the willie/daniel thing was a nice twist, but i don’t expect them to have “sexual tension”.. now that’d be WRONG!

Hell, no. No, no, no…the idea of Daniel/Wilhelmina is reprehensible to me. This show may be based on a telenovela, but I don’t want to see it warp 100% into a daytime soap.

I’m with Jace on this one. The idea of Daniel and Wili may sound nice and sexy in some fan fiction world, but in no way would I like to see the male lead sex up the woman that screwed his dad (literally) and his mom (figuratively). Eww. And can you imagine what Claire would do? If she didn’t commit murder before, she certainly will if this ever happens.

I’m not a shipper by any means, but I’ll say this: D/W and D/B both fall into that supposed “cliche” category, but I’ll more readily accept and embrace D/B before I ever watch D/W on my screen. The day that happens is the day I really stop watching.

I like this episode,I love part of Daniel/Wilhelmina scene.But I dont like Lindsay Lohan’s character on Ugly Betty and I was mad that Kimmie mean to Betty for said her-I still waitting for you get coffee and call her Granny Pants then hurt Betty.I’m fan of America Ferrera and love her as my Idol Model and she is best actress.Honest I like Lindsay as person.

Lindsay not same character from Mean Girls.I heard Lindsay said she dont want people think she mean real life before,I’m serious.Like America was roll eye when Blake Lively talk about her Gossip Girls.

I think Daniel could get past Willi sleeping with his father if Willi could get past Daniel sleeping with her sister. And Daniel could be the step father to his own half brother or sister.

If that doesn’t have telenovela all over it I don’t know what does.

This episode was so blah for me. I thought Eric Mabius’s scense were well done (and man, he looked good in those sweaters!). I love the idea of Willi and Daniel (it is a little cliche…but no more so than Daniel and Betty). I just found the fact that these mortal enemies would end up enjoying each other’s company by the end of their “date” unrealistic. Maybe this is the next phase of Willi’s master plan. Will she end up falling for him? Who knows. Hopefully UB will take it slow if that’s how they are going. They seem to be rushing through everything these days.

And don’t even get me started on LL. Her appearance on UB has been so annoying and unnecessary. I’m happy to hear the rumors that her appearances will be cut down from six to four episodes. I find her scenes to be incredibly difficult to watch.
