ABC’s Ugly Betty Moves to Wednesday Nights
Fans of Ugly Betty will be glad to hear the Golden Globe-winning show is moving to Wednesday nights at 10:00 p.m. ABC moved Ugly Betty from its weak Friday night position, taking over the slot of the recently cancelled Eastwick. Friday nights are often a death nell for shows, proving lower viewership and eventually the cancellation of the series. Originally Ugly Betty aired on Thursdays for its first three seasons where the show had a loyal following. ABC moved Ugly Betty from its longtime slot on Thursdays to Fridays at 9 p.m., where the series has languished. Ugly Betty’s talented cast certainly deserved a better time slot. Fans can now breathe a sigh of relief as new episodes begin for the series.
