I was wondering what was going on. I thought UB might end up in mid-season, so it’s good to know it’s just delayed a couple of weeks.
We’ve pretty much figured at this point we might as well count this as Ugly Betty’s final season. It’s funny because I always figured it would end because America Ferrera would tire of the role first not because it got yanked.
Maybe with the changes on Betty (new glasses, braces off mid-season, hairstyle, less mismatched patterns), it will help the ratings, if it stayed on Thursdays. But moving to Fridays is not a good sign.
I’ll be disappointed, it’s still one of my faves!
ABC should move it to Tuesdays at 8 and replace Shark Tank, it would go up against NCIS, but it should do better than what it will on Friday nights.

Come ON!!! I want my show back on NOW!!!
I figure moving it to Friday is the kiss of death. It makes me sad because I’ve watched Betty from the beginning. It’s supposed to premiere in two weeks but there’s been no promotion whatsoever. Why not throw an ad into FlashForward?
Exactly. I have seen one ad for it. And, that was on Friday night, after Ugly Betty had already aired. I missed it completely and just watched it on the internet.
I am already tired of the doctor/nurse shows. I want “Ugly Betty” back.
I’ve been a fan since day one–but as soon as I heard about the Friday timeslot I knew ABC had given up on it–I have to say I am shocked by the lack of ads though.
yeah..they sent this show to friday’s to die. We will be lucky if it doesn’t get cancelled mid season. I have to say however..last season was pretty weak, and the show has pretty much run it’s course. That being said..I will still be watching til the bitter end.
DAMMIT! I was sooo excited for next fri!!!!
Thanks ABC I was really looking forward to watching the season premiere on 10/9 now you have moved it to 10/16 when I cannot watch it and cannot DVR it because I am without one at the moment. Why don’t you just cancel the show since you have so little faith in it.
What a great, dynamic, sweet, funny, emotional show. My sister and I both love the show. Even my fiance loves the show. Even my 40 something friend loves the show. What’s going on? Is there not enough crappy shows on now and you have to delay this? This show is great. Keep it on!
My friend worked as an extra and the crew told the extras this is the last
season. No big surprise. I am surprised it lasted this long.
If this is the last season I hope Betty and Daniel both get their happily ever afters.
