He probably just changed his mind after a while. Do we need to ask again?

[NekoGirl]

I'm talking about Keith.

"I think she is basically nice, but she uses people (especially Jimmy) to get what she wants. Which, now that I think about it - is NOT very nice."

He said that one time but according to Krista:

"...he preferred JB to JC awhile back, just because Betty was so nice and supportive of him, and Cindy was always at his throat."

I wasn't sure about that.

Yes, because Stacy told me that he actually liked JB over JC at one point, if I'm correct? Didn't you say that, Stace? You weren't sure about it? Are you saying that I'm bluffing about it? o_0;;;

Actually I did say that cause its true, I was just unsure about whether Carrie meant Keith or Pigquet in her post after mine.

& I doubt I can believe that too well, (the Keith quote) because when I've talked to him about her, I doubt he's ever said anything like that in my e-mails with him. Plus I've explained in a short version of why I support J/B, and included the nice factor. Never mentioned to me that he feels that way about her, & I have recently kept in contact with him too, so yeah. Plus I can't think of why a former J/B supporter would see that way about her. Maybe it was a joke/inside joke or something?

But yeah, while I know for a fact he used to support J/B himself, yet has changed to J/C cause of season 3, I've never read that in any part of Keith's e-mails. Maybe he's changed the view of her since then?

Betty is perfect, it's hard to find something really bad about her. There are a few my random thoughts.

She really is the nicest and sweetest person you can find in this show. I don't have problems with that. Actually, she acts like a true lady even when she is dealing with Cindy, I really admire her for that. She is one of my most favorite female characters.

Probably she and Jimmy had a big crash on each other. But this crush could easely develop into a big true love.

In that episode in Vanishing Act she wasn't mean to Sheen, just was annoyed and wasn't nice. But, there is a problem that Betty apparently just don't fit in the gang. Notice how Jimmy, Sheen, Carl, Cindy and Libby can spend time together, even if they argue in a love/hate way sometimes, but Betty never really hangs with them as a friend. She also doesn't seem to have much in common with Jimmy, when Cindy has no problems with that. It Jimmy tries to get into Betty's interests (magic!).

Betty is a witch, I mean a person practicing witchcraft. She likes magic, her name is Betty, so it's obvious. I wouldn't bash her for that, but, personally I am against witchcraft because of my religious positions.

Though, I enjoyed J/B while it lasted and it is a very good pairing, which I'd never bash. Betty is one of my favorite characters and, I think, she could have more time in the how.

Well, I KNOW Justine wouldn't post something saying Keith had said it unless he really had, so he must've changed his mind at some point. I think he still likes Betty. Justine had asked if Betty was supposed to be a mean or nice character on the show, and that was his reply. He probably came to the realization that Betty wasn't perfect, but that just makes her human, not evil and nasty. If we wanted to, we could ask him more about it, but I get the idea he probably still likes Betty... Maybe...? :blink:


@ FLANK-- Yeah, I agree about Betty needing more show time. We barely know anything about her personality with the few episodes she got! That, and the fact that she came in after J/C was already being established, does seem to cause a lot of prejudice against her... I guess the show didn't give her much of a chance, did it?

*takes of thinking cap* OK, this post is going to get waaay too long if I keep this up! :P

For the first half, I would say that's likely the case. Because I believe he could've said that at one point, [plus I doubt Justine would lie or anything. ^_^ ] I was just caught off guard I guess. But I think Keith's probably changed his point of view on Betty by now, & my proof for thinking this is that he at least seemed happy with & seemed to like her character when we were talking about her in our e-mails.

Second, I know your talking to Flank, but I gotta agree with this. Betty really didn't get much of a chance because Jimmy & Cindy grew to be SUCH a big hit with the fans, like 95% percent of them. So because like you said -- she came in after some fans could easily point out the J/C evidence already in the show; this made her an automatic target for almost all J/C fans at that point. I guess where J/C got to the point of "ridiculously popular", about half their fans wouldn't even DREAM of hearing anything about Jimmy, & especially Cindy being with any other soul. So because Betty was basically put in to be Jimmy's early love interest, it pretty much killed her & J/B's chances of having any decent amount of fans. Some yes, but not nearly fair enough.

[Flank]

I'm not saying anything here, but the funny thing is that in the "good future" you can't see who is Jimmy's wife. It could be and Betty, and "good future" Cindy.

i like betty, i don't thinks she's evil. She's just a pushover sometimes. but here in their she can get annnoyed, like in vanishing act. She just couldn't handle sheen and cindy so she got a little catty on them.

[CjIiNmDmYy]

Everyone loses their temper at times. Betty doesn't seem like the kind of girl that would just...be bad. She popular, but in a good way.

[gabBy-gabBz^^]

Yeah, I think everyone knows her.

[CjIiNmDmYy]

I know. I would really hate her if she was a snotty brat like Eustace. Man, I'm so glad they DIDN'T do that.

[gabBy-gabBz^^]

Yeah, she's soooo pretty! She can't be evil!

[John Richards]

Whether or not that post is sarcastic, I distinctly dislike it.

[CjIiNmDmYy]

I'm sorry if my post offended you, John. I just meant I'm glad Keith didn't make her one of those popular, snotty kids. She's kind and it's good to see someone popular didn't take it to their head to be mean.

[John Richards]

I was referring to Gabby.

[CjIiNmDmYy]

Oh.

[JCFanatic]

Frankly, Betty doesn't strike me as the type to be that sincere.

I think you mean Jimmy and Cindy. lol

[Zoey <3]

...No I think she was right. I think she was talking about Sheen, because he was annoying her in the beginning.

I kind of think Jimmy is such a jerk. He can be so rude, mean, insulting and sexist toward Cindy, which really turned me off. I only started to like him when I seen how sweet he was to her in Stranded. He has never been rude, mean or nasty to Betty. He always showed himself as a sweet gentleman. Though as a J/Cer I sadly only get one episode where he acts like that to Cindy, I guess can say I'm jealous of the J/B love. I wish Jindy had a love like that. J/B is so innocent and he is so shy around her, he really did so much to get her attention. I wish a guy would do that for me, or even better I wish Jimmy would have done that for Cindy. You Jimmy/Betty fans are lucky. ]:

[Zoey <3]

What do you expect? In the show he is 11 year old boy. Of course he is going to be a little sexist. I think the only reason he is mean and rude to Cindy is because she is that way too him. I also Think the only reason he isn't mean and rude to Betty is because she isn't that way to him. There are alot of Times were Jimmy is sweet toward Cindy. Has Jimmy ever gave Betty a pearl? Has Jimmy ever held Betty's hand or kissed her? there are more then one episode were Jimmy is nice to Cindy and where Cindy is nice to Jimmy.
