Here is a clip from TV Guide Network’s InFanity, profiling Ugly Betty’s Becki Newton and Michael Urie (or Amanda and Marc, if you will).

My apologies if this is restricted internationally.  I hope it isn’t, though.
Some of the feature is a kind of recap of the two characters for people who have not seen much of the show.  There are some neat behind-the-scenes snippets of on set filming (including a quick shot of Amanda and Matt).
Newton mentions that the writers have allowed their characters to evolve, showing their good sides.  They  say their favorite episodes are those in which Amanda, Marc, …read more

Mark Indelicato recently spoke to TV Guide about his character Justin’s place in Ugly Betty season four.  Justin will have an important role in the new season, one of the few Suarez-related story lines we know about right now.
As far as Justin entering high school, Indelicato says, “Justin is a freshman in high school this year, and he’s not what the other kids are. The kids are superficial and don’t look at him for who he is. You’re new in a school, you’re around people you don’t know, you’re intimidated by kids who’ve been there longer than you. So …read more

Ralph Macchio recently stopped by the morning news set at WPIX, and talked about his role on Ugly Betty, being the father of teenagers, and some of his future projects.

The included Ugly Betty clip is hilarious, not only because Tony Plana does the exasperated father better than anyone, but also because he guessed that Hilda is pregnant, then Hilda quickly corrected him.  I don’t know, I just found it funny because Ana Ortiz really is pregnant.
I’m glad that Archie is going to run for Queens borough president, because that will make for all kinds of interesting story lines; and Ana …read more

Bummed out that Ausiello didn’t mention Ugly Betty in his Ask Ausiello post?  Don’t be!  The Futon Critic has an interview with Ugly Betty executive producers Tracy Poust and Jon Kinnally, and they give some great indications about the direction of the show.
First thing:  they say that Betty is "unofficially" renewed.  I know sometimes I sound like a sourpuss about ratings here, but deep down, I’ve always believed the show was coming back (although I HAVE to report the good and the bad).  I’m glad the producers say the show is "unofficially" returning.  Also, the show will stay …read more

America Ferrera and Ana Ortiz will be on The View Tuesday.  Certainly they will be talking about the return of Ugly Betty from the holiday hiatus. 
I’m glad the two of them will be on together (they really do act like sisters sometimes when they appear together).  It’s kind of a shame that the promotions only feature Ferrera, but tat’s the nature of the business.
As soon as video is available, of course, you know I’ll have it for you here.  I know that some of you are in New York, so any reports from the airing will be featured …read more

Freddy Rodriguez has been heavily promoting his new film, “Nothing Like The Holidays”.  He briefly mentions Ugly Betty in this interview on Regis and Kelly:

When Regis asks Freddy about Ugly Betty, he quotes Ugly Betty executive producer Silvio Horta, who told him, “You didn’t die!”
What’s really neat is that this question was asked at the behest of one of the Getty Girls (for those of you who don’t know, this group is probably the most, uh, enthusiastic group of fans I’ve ever seen).  Getty Girl “Lady T” was actually there, and asked Regis, before the show started, to ask Rodriguez …read more

One of the bright spots of Ugly Betty season 3 so far is the guest appearance of musician/actor Val Emmich.  Val is truly a rising star, and appeared in 3 episodes of Ugly Betty as Betty’s crush Jesse.  Emmich was kind enough to have a few words with Ugly Betty News recently, and I’m excited to bring that to you today.
But first, a few quick facts about Val Emmich:

He was born in Manalapan Township, New Jersey.
Although he played soccer as a boy, he contracted Lime Disease and had to give up all strenuous activities.
During this time, Val learned …read more

TV Guide snagged an exclusive interview with Ugly Betty’s Eric Mabius. He talks about Daniel being a father, his evolving relationship with Betty and filming in New York. It’s a great interview! Check it out below and tell me what you think about the things he said.

Variety’s Season Pass blog recently gave readers an opportunity to ask Ugly Betty writer/producer Silvio Horta questions.  His answers were not quite spoiler-ish, but he did provide some new insight into a couple of things.  The MOST interesting, to me:
Q. What did Daniel give Betty for her birthday in “24 Candles?” Kind of random, but we didn’t get to see her open it and I’m curious. — CaliA. I was disappointed we didn’t get to show this scene because it turned out to be such a great moment. We had to cut it due to time — the show …read more

Here is video of America Ferrera’s recent appearance on Rachel Ray’s TV show.

They talk about America’s wardrobe malfunction at the Emmys (if you haven’t heard the story, it’s hilarious).  I have a newfound respect for Julia Louis Dreyfus.
The two also discuss the show’s move to New York, and Ferrera is the perfect politician about it, as usual.  When pressed about something “bad” that’s happened since the move, America tells a surprising story about a ceiling collapse and water pipe breach in her new apartment (this only interests me, but the EXACT same thing happened to me when I was her …read more
