'Ugly Betty' on the Move Again; Finds New Home on ABC Wednesdays

Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Ugly Betty is on the move again, graduating from his Friday night time slot at 9pm to a more desirable Wednesday at 10 pm/ET home on ABC.  It is expected that this move will most likely occur when the show resumes after a holiday hiatus on January 6. 

Reportedly, Betty's addition to the Wednesday night line-up completes ABC's all-comedy night.

Ugly Betty is a Golden Globe and Emmy winning comedy television series created by Silvio Horta, which premiered on ABC on September 28, 2006. Starring America Ferrera in the title role, along with Eric Mabius, Judith Light, Rebecca Romijn and Vanessa Williams, the series revolves around Betty Suarez, an unglamorous and good-natured girl, and her incongruous job at the ultra-chic New York City fashion magazine Mode. The series is an adaptation of the Colombian telenovela Betty la fea, written by Fernando Gaitán. The series is produced by Silent H, Ventanarosa and Reveille respectively partnered with ABC Studios, and is primarily filmed in Los Angeles, California, but together with the pilot episode and the third and fourth season the series is filmed in New York. The executive producers are Salma Hayek, Silvio Horta, Ben Silverman, Jose Tamez and Joel Fields.

During its first three seasons, it was seen on Thursday nights, where it was mostly successful, but in October 2009 it moved to Fridays. Starting in January 2010, it will move to Wednesdays.

'Ugly Betty' returned for its fourth season on October 9, 2009.
