Based on these set photos of America Ferrera and Daniel Eric Gold filming scenes for Ugly Betty, I think it’s safe to say that in some upcoming episode of the show, Betty and Matt will be at the very least, friendly.

This looks like a date to me, and one that’s going well.  But, this could just be a friendly walk, such as we’ve seen Betty take with Daniel many times.
They seem to be walking around somewhere Betty knows, because she’s pointing out something to Matt.

I LOVE these red coats that Betty has been wearing, it is a very …read more

Here is another sneak peek of Ugly Betty episode 4.05, Plus One.  Betty is third wheel, (or plus one, whatever ) at a lunch with Daniel and Natalie.

Hat tip: B&B
First off, what’s up with Natalie’s Kate-Gosselin-hair?  Yes, it looks wonderful, but it really changes the character, by looks alone.  Maybe that’s on purpose.  As much as I liked her character in Blue on Blue, I’m guessing she’s going to end up being “the bad guy”, and Betty’s going to have to save Daniel from her.
Anyway, in the sneak peek, Natalie cannot eat restaurant food, she is eating “Maca-greenie …read more

Here is a sneak peek of Ugly Betty episode 4.05, Plus None.  This one really gets the Detty on.
Hat tip: B&B
Betty and Daniel meet at the elevator; Daniel is heading to his group meeting, we don’t know what Betty is doing, but she seems to be leaving for the day.
Daniel tells Betty how “the group” is helping him cope with losing Molly.  He then says he notices she and Matt have been “chummy” lately.  He asks if “there’s anything (about them) she’d like to report".
Betty hems and haws, then mentions that the two of them (Daniel and Betty) have …read more

This is double-interesting news.  According to EW’s Ausiello, Fisher Stevens will join the cast of Ugly Betty in a possibly recurring role as Betty’s new landlord.
You’ll recognize Stevens right away, because he always plays “that creepy guy”.  I remember a recurring role on CSI NY where Stevens was spectacular.  Then, of course, there’s the role he played on Lost (George Minkoski)
On Betty, he will play Mr. Z., a dry and sarcastic landlord.  When they cast the role, they were looking for a "New York actor who could go head-to-head with America Ferrera."
Personally, I love Stevens, and I think I’ll …read more

Here are some photos of America Ferrera filming scenes for Ugly Betty in Lower Manhattan.

Two things stand out: Betty looks more stylish than ever, and she seems kind of flummoxed.
I like the pink empire-waisted thing (is that considered a coat?  a sweater?  Forgive me, I’m showing my fashion ignorance.  To me, a coat should have buttons.  )  The hat is a nice touch, as well.  The only “Betty-fied” part of her outfit is the purse, which really stands out.

Betty seems upset about something – but I have a feeling we’ll be seeing a lot …read more

Here is a little more in-depth preview of Ugly Betty episode 4.03, Blue On Blue, airing tonight on ABC at 9/8c. (Hat tip – BuddyTV).  All of this info has been floating around piecemeal, but BTV is the first place I’ve seen it all summarized in one place.
Betty is going to try to get a scoop in her new job as features editor at Mode: 
She goes all out in her pursuit of Gucci’s fresh designer, Evan York (Hamish Linklater) but she needs help.  Enter Hilda, and her well-connected customer Sammy (Adam Ferrara).
Marc, of course, is still angry with Betty …read more

Want to know what’s going on with Ugly Betty after this week’s episode 4.03, Blue on Blue?  Here are the titles and synopses for episodes 4.04 and 4.05 (hat tip SpoilerTV).
Episode 4.04 is entitled "The Wiener, the Bun and the Boob". (Heh).  The synopsis:
Betty is overwhelmed with her editorial work, so Wilhemina assigns Marc to be Betty’s temporary assistant. Betty’s story idea to cover the worst jobs in New York goes south when she has to dress up as a hot dog and do a Bollywood dance number. Meanwhile, Marc frets that he’ll never be taken seriously by his …read more

TV Guide has a good write-up about the upcoming Ugly Betty season 4 premiere and it’s tie-in with the United Nations-sponsored program Nothing But Nets.
The show cross-promotes the program in a very creative way, with Betty proposing a story about it in mode, complete with a mosquito-net-clothing photo shoot.  I would imagine some kind of (real) appeal is going to be aired during or immediately after the show as well.
The show’s stars recently appeared at the UN promoting the program (and the episode) in person.
"It’s really a perfect marriage," said Judith Light. "Betty Suarez is a person who has …read more

Here is another sneak peek of the Ugly Betty season four 2-hour premiere, airing October 16th on ABC.

(Once again, sorry to you folks outside the US for the restrictions)
This one is set at the end of Betty’s awful, horrible first day.  She heads into the steam room in Mode’s gym (in case this is lost on us, the wonderful UB set department puts “STEAM” in huge letters on the doors).
Betty lies down, but her moment of peace and quiet is interrupted by Wilhelmina, who has also come for some steam.  Willi, knowing about Betty’s day, informs her that if Betty …read more

Here are some photos of America Ferrera and Becki Newton filming scenes for Ugly Betty on location at Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas.

America and Becki raced down the challenger slides at at the humongous water resort.  This looks like so much fun.  This was from an actual scene, and not just the two playing around, I believe, because Ferrera is “wearing” her braces, and you almost never see her with braces on unless she’s in character.
As you can see, Betty isn’t exactly wearing a string bikini (neither is Amanda for that matter).  They are both wearing proper waterslide attire, …read more
