Harper’s Island star Christopher Gorham says his return to Ugly Betty (this Thursday at 8/7c on ABC) was not entirely unexpected. 
“I got a call from creator Silvio Horta.  When I left the show the first time, he made it clear to me that he was hoping that I would be able to come back at some point. So it wasn’t a totally unexpected phone call. He wanted me to come back and do an episode near the end of the season and, of course, I was happy to do it.”
On his exit from the show, he says the …read more

Check out this preview for the upcoming mystery / horror show Harpers Island.  One of the stars/victims/suspects is Ugly Betty’s Christopher Gorham, and he’s shed the geek look.

 
It seems like a combination of an Agatha Christie murder mystery and an 80’s slasher film.  It seems a little intense for us to watch with the kiddies, but intriguing just the same.
In the video, there’s a short snippet of interview with Christopher Goham, and several clips of some of his scenes (amongst others).  At the Harper’s Island web site, there’s also “biographies” of each character, including Gorham’s  (who is, once again, named …read more

The baby boom surrounding Ugly Betty continues unabated. Christopher Gorham, Betty’s beau Henry from seasons 1 and 2, has become a new dad. He and his wife Anel have welcomed a baby girl into their family Saturday, Jan. 10, reports People Magazine.
Her name is Alondra Cecilia Lopez Gorham (love that name!). According to Gorham, she’s “perfect”. He and his wife also have two sons, Lucas and Ethan.
Gorham is only a part of keeping the baby-making streak for the show alive. First it was creator / executive producer Salma Hayek, and more recently new parents Eric …read more

As discussed in the comments here, Ugly Betty recently shot a scene in Chinatown – recreating the softball scene from episode 2.18 – Jump. Here is video courtesty of x17:
var x17video_id = “aferrera082108.mp4″;
(Hat tip to commenter Sarah !)
I have a couple of questions about this. First off, Henry is apparently going to be in this scene. There has been discussion about whether or not this is actually Christopher Gorham, or a double (if the scene is a quick flashback, it’s possible they used a double). I have no reason to think it’s NOT CG, though, and …read more

This week’s print version of TV Guide has a blurb about Christopher Gorham and his new show, Harper’s Island.  You can view a scan here.
Gorham says, of his Ugly Betty character Henry’s relationship with Betty, “The show got us together and had to think of ways to keep us apart”. 
There’s really no disagreeing with that.  We can argue whether the producers jumped the gun with the Henry/Betty relationship (as much as I like him, I think they did – romantic tension is always better, dramatically, than a healthy relationship), but there’s no denying that the whole love triangle thing …read more

Here is the second segment of Christopher Gorham’s appearance on the Martha Stewart show. Pay VERY close attention to the beginning! He lets slip a very important plot point about the season finale of Ugly Betty!

I am pretty convinced that this means that Henry is coming back next season. Betty is NOT going to go away with anyone, and if someone like, say, Gio, were to go to a certain European country shaped like a boot, certainly he wouldn’t be on the show anymore.
I know all the hints have been about Henry leaving the show – now …read more

Here is the video of the first segment of Ugly Betty star Christopher Gorham’s appearance on Martha Stewart’s show today. It’s quite funny when he banters back and forth with Martha, and he brought a clip!

(BTW, I created this clip myself, and it’s my first, so forgive any sloppy editing!)
Henry hits Gio! This wasn’t entirely unexpected, in fact, youkind of knew they’d come to blows.
After introductions, they cook chicken. Most of this clip is of Chris and Martha cutting up whole broiler chickens. I didn’t realise how funny Gorham is in real life till I saw …read more
