ABC DVD Promo: Ugly Betty Included

Check out this video promo from ABC about all the upcoming DVD releases for last season’s shows.  Ugly Betty is featured prominently, and they pieced together every sensational, racy, steamy scene from each show (that’s a warning, if you are easily offended):

Whew.  Time to check out Desperate Housewives, Grey’s Anatomy, Dirty Sexy Money, Brothers and […]

Video: Preview of Blooper Reel From Ugly Betty Season 2 DVD

I love this!  Here is a little snippet of the blooper reel from the Ugly Betty season 2 DVD, to be released September 9th.

A good chunk of the footage is America Ferrera (which would make the most sense because she has the most lines).  She fumbles words, forgets lines, and gets the giggles.
Ashley Jensen has […]

New Ugly Betty Season 3 Promo!

Here’s a new promo for the Ugly Betty season 3 premiere, airing Thursday, September 25 at 8/7c:

It’s a 30 second spot, but there’s SO much going on here!
Wilhelmina knocks a hole in a wall with a sledgehammer, and sees Betty (in her new apartment?), declaring “Oh, my, it’s back!”.  I’m dying to know what this […]

Marc And Mandy: Behind The Scenes At Mode

This is hi - larious!  Michael Urie and Becki Newton recently did a “behind the scenes at Mode” video for Elle Magazine, in their Ugly Betty characters.  The results were, of course, very funny:

It’s a little weird that Newton seems to have the mic, meaning many times that it’s hard to hear Urie, but I […]

New 60-Second Ugly Betty Season 3 Promo

As has been discussed in the comments here, ABC has released a new promo for Ugly Betty’s 3rd season.

I love the fact that it is sixty seconds long, and they take their time with it.  If there was any doubt about Ugly Betty becoming a Single Girl in the Big City series, this promo should […]

Video: Ugly Betty Starter Kit

ABC updated its Ugly Betty Starter Kit video (as you might recall, the first one came out just as the show was returning from the WGA strike).  As usual, it is hosted by Suzuki St Pierre (Alec Mapa).

It covers all of the major happenings, in both season 1 and season 2.
You know, it’s funny - […]

Video: ABC Fall Promo

While watching my favorite summer distraction the other day (I Survived a Japanese Game Show) I was quite disheartened to see the promo for ABC’s fall 2008 season.  I kept waiting and waiting for Ugly Betty to show up, but there was no Betty.
Luckily, today I found the 60-second version, and there is Betty in […]

Video: Michael Urie At Teen Choice Awards

TV Guide caught up with Ugly Betty’s Michael Urie on the red carpet at the Teen Choice Awards.  Here’s the video:

This is mostly just Michael being silly, which is really all we Ugly Betty fans ask of him. ;)
Although, is it just me, or does it seem wrong to see him out and about without […]

A Little Spy Video Of Lindsay Lohan Filming Ugly Betty

Here is a video (obviously taken from the street outside the filming location) of Lindsay Lohan filming a scene from Ugly Betty.

Awesome!
If there were any doubts that this particular scene involved a food fight between Lohan’s character Kimberly and Betty (America Ferrera), I guess we have our answer now.
This is a great omen:  perhaps the […]
