A brilliant, thoughtful and plus-size attorney with a loyal assistant, Teri (Cho), Jane has always lived in the shadow of her more comely colleagues whereas Deb has always relied on her external beauty. Now, by a twist of fate and a bolt of divine intervention, Deb must come to terms with inhabiting Jane's curvier frame in the ultimate showdown between brains and beauty.

She is so pretty. Her looks have nothing to do with her character..... its completely ridiculous to refer to anyone, even a character as overweight and fugly. Why do people associate weight and looks. Someone could be 300 pounds and still be gorgeous. Society has truly ruined the meaning of beauty. Its time we move past that. Im appalled and truly upset with this description. It needs to be taken down NOW.

Brilliant writing excellent cast, wonderful show.. A bit disgusted by Google use of the word 'fugly' to describe an attractive and talented actress like Brooke. I thought that Google hired intelligent talented adults, not petulant, soulless, high school drop outs.
