'Ugly Betty' spoiler alert: A death, a departure and a (shocking) declaration!
13 November 2009 10:52 AM, PST | EW - Ausiello Files | See recent EW.com - The Ausiello Files news »
If you're among the millions of viewers who haven't followed Ugly Betty to its deleterious new Friday timeslot, here's what you've been missing: the show's most consistently entertaining season since its transcendent first. As I mentioned in this week's Ask Ausiello, the fourth-year comedy is, Imho, enjoying a helluva creative resurgence. For proof, look not further than tonight's exceptionally funny, moving, gutsy outing. If there were any doubts that Betty has a lot of life left in her — I'm talking to you, Ken Tucker — this eppy should obliterate them. Now then, time to step off my soap box and board the spoiler train. »

9 Sneak Peeks, Promo, Photos & Synopsis – Ugly Betty 4.06 "Backseat Betty"
11 November 2009 5:27 PM, PST | TVovermind.com | See recent TVovermind.com news »
I'm so saddened by the fact that Ugly Betty has moved to Fridays, because I like to have some semblance of a life and not be stuck at home on Friday nights watching TV. The good news (well, for some people) is that Ugly Betty might move into Eastwick's Wednesday night's slot (maybe).
In the meantime, if you're going to watch the show on Friday night then check out the promo, photos, 9 sneak peeks and synopsis for the November 13th episode.
Justin Has Trouble At High School, And Betty Renews A Teenage Crush, On ABC's "Ugly Betty"

Tony Winner Benanti to Replace Evans and Russell in Kennedy Center Concert, 4/30
9 November 2009 11:16 AM, PST | BroadwayWorld.com | See recent BroadwayWorld.com news »
Tony Award winner Laura Benanti is set to replace British stars Daniel Evans and Jenna Russell in an upcoming "Spotlight" concert series at the Kennedy Center. Benanti will take over the concert, which is set to be a part of the "Barbara Cook's Spotlight" concert series, featuring Broadway stars and curated by Barbara Cook.
Portraying compelling characters in Broadway theater, television, and film has made Tony Award-winning actress Laura Benanti one to watch. She hit Broadway by storm starring opposite Patti LuPone in Gypsy. Playing Louise, Benanti received critical acclaim for her performance--the New York Times called her "delicious in the title role"--and became the first actress in that role on Broadway to win the Tony for "Best Featured Actress in a Musical." She also earned Tony nominations for her roles in Swing! and the revival of Into the Woods opposite Vanessa Williams.
Her Broadway credits include Gypsy (for »
Ugly Betty: Preview of Episode 4.05 "Plus None"
5 November 2009 10:00 PM, PST | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »
Is there a love triangle in store for tonight's episode of Ugly Betty? On "Plus None," a charity event brings up some exes and oh!s as Betty (America Ferrera) has to face Amanda (Becki Newton) for the affections of Matt (Daniel Eric Gold).
Wilhelmina (Vanessa Williams) hosts her fund-raiser for Tibetan orphans tonight, and Matt asks someone other than Betty - yes, Amanda - to be his "plus one" to the event. While she tries not to be so affected by it, she starts to wonder what exactly is going on between them.

30 October 2009 12:30 AM, PDT | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »
Even Betty's donning a costume this Halloween, but it's not exactly for the celebration. Tonight on Ugly Betty, our beloved comic heroine has a lot on her plate to deal with, like a huge hotdog suit.
On "The Weiner, The Bun & The Boob," Wilhelmina (Vanessa Williams) decides to assign Marc (Michael Urie) as the temporary assistant of his nemesis - Betty. With all the editorial work Betty (America Ferrera) has to do these days, she needs all the help she can get. However, she didn't quite ask for a spoonful of sabotage.

"Ugly Betty" (4.3) Recap: Blue on Blue
26 October 2009 6:03 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
With the fourth season of ABC's Ugly Betty settling in on Friday night (and garnering so-so ratings), it's only fitting that our plucky heroine would have trouble adjusting to her new position as feature editor of Mode.
Fortunately her new trails and tribulations have lit a creative spark, because this season is already rife with potentially juicy storylines. Let's take a look at the good, the bad, and the "meh" of last week's episode, Blue on Blue. (All Pics - ABC/Patrick Harbron)
Maybe if we stand perfectly still she'll sniff us and leave
The Good: Evil Marc Returns
Of all Ugly Betty characters, Marc has probably grown the most. He started out as a one-note, one-dimensional stereotype (the bitchy gay lackey), who had it in for Betty and lived to torment her on a weekly basis.
Over the years, though, the character has been allowed to reveal his insecurities and to mature, »

Marc St. James' Mission: Bring Down 'Betty' and Find Bahamas Romance
21 October 2009 12:00 AM, PDT | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »
We checked up on Wilhelmina a while back on Vanessa Williams' interview with TV Guide, but it seems as though she's not the only one scheming on this season of Ugly Betty. Michael Urie's character Marc St. James has a bone to pick with Ms. Suarez as well, especially since he feels she stole his spotlight.
Regarding his character's disappointment, Michael Urie talked about what's in store for Marc this season of the show. Other than getting behind Willy and plotting Betty's downfall, he may just get a surprising hookup in the Bahamas as well.

Despite the reported dip in ratings for the premiere of Ugly Betty, there's one thing that's looking up on this season of the show - Wilhelmina Slater. Now that she was asked to stay at Mode, it seems as though we have to expect a lot more scheming from the character.
But that's not all there is to Willy, since we learn more about her throughout the season. Even actress Vanessa Williams told TV Guide about how we'll uncover the layers of the character as she faces even more obstacles. Those are simply the best ways to get to know the different sides of Willy.

16 October 2009 1:27 AM, PDT | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »
After being single for almost eight months, Eliza Dushku has finally found her new man. In a recent interview with TV Guide magazine, the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star has admitted that she is currently dating former Los Angeles Lakers player Rick Fox, who was previously married to Vanessa Williams.
Eliza claimed she and Rick have been friends for about ten years, but it was not until this year that their relationship became romantic. "We're trying to balance really getting to know each other with all our demands work-wise. We're taking it one day at a time, having a good time," she told the publication.
Additionally, a source from "Dollhouse", the Fox's TV series in which she is currently starring as Echo, has dished on the new couple. "[Rick] has been very nice. There's definitely an age difference and they aren't the first two people I would put together. But he's »

Ugly Betty: Vanessa Williams on Wilhelmina's Latest Scheme
15 October 2009 5:44 PM, PDT | TVGuide.com - Features | See recent TVGuide - Features news »
It isn't easy playing Ugly Betty's scheming, nasty Wilhelmina Slater — especially at the beginning of Season 4, when she's lost her man, her baby and her job. But Vanessa Williams is glad that Willy doesn't always get her way, as it helps explain why she's so guarded. Williams tells us how Willy will deal with her setbacks, why the arrival of her daughter, Nico (America's Next Top Model's Yaya DaCosta), will distract her and what Willy and Betty have in common.
