Betty in New York: Die Geschichte geht weiter

Absolutely disgusting what they did to every character. This is nothing but banking on nostalgia. The story makes absolutely no sense, and makes it seem like the love Armando and Betty had never happened. The show glorifies vulgar behavior and is anti marriage/love. Its very try hard to be hip using hashtags, and pushes a lot of current themes. They even had Sandra not be into men anymore which is totally contrary to who she was. This is pretty much Betty la Fea if it was made by a feminist who does not like men. Every single guy on the show is feminized and they talk down masculinity like its a bad thing. Absolutely sad to see this train wreck.

A series that evokes nostalgia and shows that it is still possible to make good television without having to resort to vulgarities and appealing to sexuality.

Although in the first episodes it's a little difficult, both for the viewer and for the series itself, to reconnect with the original version, as the series progresses you can not only to link with the previous plot, but also to be introduced to a new fresh plot that makes this sequel fun and interesting.

It is important to applaud and recognize the talent of the actors who were part of the original version and who are also part of the current series. These actors show that talent does not diminish over the years, on the contrary, they managed to give life, continuity and luster to their characters.

Keep in mind that it is not necessary to know in detail the original version to enjoy this series, only a general knowledge of this highly recognized story is enough to enjoy this new version.

I was a fan of Betty la fea. It was one of my favourite soap operas and I enjoyed it as a teenager.

What they did with the sequel is... sad. Nothing makes sense, the daughter is just...a character that has nothing to do with the story or her parents. They distroyed Betty and Armando's love story because of a reason that I could not understand. I also watched Economoda. That was better than this.

This is a prequel that I prefer to forget. For me, Betty la fea ended years ago, with a beautiful ending, two people who loved each other against all odds, no matter what. Yes, because it was just a series🙂🙂

The appeal of the original Yo Soy Betty La Fea was that as over the top as it was, it hit on some real points -- women helping other women, and sometimes not helping other women, look obsessed societies, the rise of a middle class in Columbia, can men change, etc. A snapshot of where Betty and Armando stood 25 years later could have been great. However what we see makes no sense. When the series ended and was then followed by Eco Moda, the Valecias were gone. Marcela and Patricia walked off in a huff. I can't remember if there was a big explanation, but one wasn't needed. But the new series imagines Marcela still working at Eco Moda, and Patsy too, and everybody else frozen in time and the same styles. It's nonsensical and cartoonish like Bart and Lisa Simpson always in the same grades. Marcella spending 25 years pining over Armando and not married with kids of her own? Unlikely! There could have been a real plot to this: A story about Betty in menopause and Armando back up to his old deceptions. A couple running a business together whil their prersonal partnership is falling apart. Something funny but serious, and real and not ridiculous and just based on classic quirks of characters like Patsy's tossing her hair or Guitierez mangling English. A missed opportunity.
