Ugly Betty New Years Resolutions

by Tom on December 30th, 2007

Since I am going to forego making any resolutions this year, I thought it would be fun to make a few New Year’s resolutions for the Ugly Betty characters. These are the resolutions I would make, if I were each of them:

•  Daniel: To keep working at being more responsible.  Daniel has made quite a turnaround this year, especially since Betty had her moments of going off the deep end.  But, he has a lot more work to do.  Wagering away a multi-billion dollar company in a sibling-rivalry paintball war isn’t exactly the height of maturity.
• Alexis: See Daniel.  Also, to see a therapist so she can finally work out those daddy issues.
• Christina: To be supportive of her husband in his time of need.  Unless, of course, he’s a lying, no good con man.  If that’s the case, it would change to “kicking him in the jewels, then kicking him to the door”.
• Amanda: To find her father, of course!  Oh, and to get Halston some decent sweaters, not made of paper clips.
• Marc: To find a way to get back to Mode, and be back with partner, Amanda.  AND - to try dressing like Cliff, just once.
• Wilhelmina: To wrestle control of Meade publications from the Meade siblings.  (Remember, if I were HER, I’d be an evil, conniving witch).  Also, to work out her various family issues.  Oh, what the heck: how about trying to be a human being for once?
• Ignacio: To continue being a good father, even when it seems like his daughters are losing their minds.  Also, how about finding love?
• Hilda: Speaking of finding love….To start dating for real.  Maybe giving that Gio guy a second look? (If he can take his eyes off Betty).  Also, to be responsible enough to get the salon off the ground.  And to be the best mother possible to Justin.
• Justin: To star in his school’s production of High School Musical.
• Gio: To get over Betty.  She’s just not into him, he needs to move on (hello?  Hilda’s HOT!).
• Cliff: To remain true to himself, no matter what Marc does.
• Kenny: To finally get that recording contract, and blow off accounting for good.
• Nick: To quit being a jerk.
• Henry: To get a lawyer  and sue Charlie for custody of the baby;  that way, he can be the father he wants to be, and still be with Betty.
• Betty: To follow her heart, no matter what.  To be a real writer for Mode or another Meade publication.  To always be there for Henry, and Daniel, and Hilda, and Justin (but think of herself every now and again).

Anyway, you might have your own ideas for resolutions.  And, I’m sure I forgot some characters, so add your own!
