As you know, the Academy has recognized Vanessa's work on all three previous seasons of "Ugly Betty" with nominations in the category of "Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series." Now we need your help in deciding which episode to submit to the Academy for Vanessa in the 2010 Emmy race!
We've narrowed it down to the three episodes listed below in no particular order. Please vote for only ONE episode.
All The World's A Stage - Justin loves his acting class, helmed by the eccentric Lena Korvinka, and finds himself in an unexpected triangle with his new pals, Austin and Lily. When Betty drops by class, she's smitten with a cool young playwright, Zachary, whom she will profile for Mode. But she challenges her own ethics when she starts dating him. And Wilhelmina is hospitalized with a perforated ulcer, and can't help her type-A personality even when bedridden, but then her roommate, Roberta, prompts an epiphany.
Chica and the Man - Wilhelmina is furious when she discovers she has a drag queen impersonator - Wilhediva Hater. Meanwhile Betty receives an award for her blog, which causes tension between her and Daniel. When she vents online, her fans in blogosphere escalate the feud, and the press hounds Daniel. Amanda rehires Helen, but Willie orders Amanda to fire her -- which Amanda just can't bring herself to do. And Marc runs his own photo shoot with a famous director and actress.
Blackout - Betty tries to be neighborly by planning a karaoke party in her apartment building, but before the big day, her building is robbed, and it's partly her fault. Marc is distraught since he lost something irreplaceable in the theft. Meanwhile, Daniel and Wilhelmina are back to being at each other's throats, so Amanda tricks them into attending couples counseling with Dr. Sparks, and Ignacio refuses to accept Bobby in Hilda's life. Then a citywide blackout ups the ante for everyone.
As a wild-card alternate, do you feel the episode "Back In Her Place" should be considered?
A battered but unbowed Betty recounts her worst week ever to Mr. Z as the show flashes back to her horrible last few days.
Frustrated over the frivolous assignments Wilhelmina gives her at Mode, and inspired by Audrey Hepburn's memoir, Betty creates her own blog about amazing charitable ventures that inspire her. However, as her hobby enriches her, her job is nearly killing her, since Wilhelmina tortures Betty with beauty experiments for future stories. Meanwhile, Daniel fears Marc is sabotaging him -- and he is; Bobby treats a hormonal Hilda to some pampering during "Hilda Week," which goes awry, and Wilhelmina makes a long-term commitment to the incarcerated Connor.
Voting will take place from April 8th thru April 21st at 11:55pm (ET). Results will be posted April 30th.
