Well - I guess I am going to have to give in and watch the season finale. I haven't watched an episode all year, but I will for Kristin.

Does anyone know if this show films in New York? I know they use green-screen for the scenes in Queens so I'm not sure if filming takes place in the city or in LA.

According to the end credits, it is shot on location in New York, NY.

The show is not filmed in NY. The production team may go and shoot some exteriors there, but it is filmed at Raleigh Studios in Los Angeles on Melrose Avenue.

Two of my 3 favorite shows have to be on the same frickin time. I bet the season finale of The Office is on the same time as this is, so glad ABC puts the episodes online.

I was at Paramount Studios about 2 weeks ago, and they showed us their New York Set, where they said a lot of the exterior shots of New Oyrk City for 'Ugly Betty' were shot. Since I've been there, I've actually noticed quite a few scenes that have been shot there!

Living in California, I've been to several sets that have been used for New York City locales... but didn't I read somewhere that America Ferrera bought a Manhattan apartment recently? My memory's confusing my present thought process...

Looking at some of the outdoor NYC shots inh that show it is clear that there are times when it is in a studio and when it is 4actually outside in NYC at least for me.

I think that the show is in fact filmed in LA but they have brought the cast out to NYC a few times for some outdoor shots in front of buildings and things like that. As a matter of fact, what they do isn't at all uncommon. Many shows that take place in NYC but aren't filmed here would send the crew and actors out to the city to spend some time filming here. Many is the time that they film them doing just regular things like walking in and out of a building or buying a hot dog form a vendor. I know that CSI NY does this a lot.

That's what I thought! JTF, too.

Yes!! I love this show more and more every week.

If she's playing an orthodontic technician, do you think this means Jesse Tyler Ferguson will be back as well, seeing as he played Betty's orthodontist (with a bit of a crush on our heroine)? Or are they just taking the "Betty is ugly because she wears BRACES haha!" thing a little too far when it comes to writing in one-shot characters?

I love this show so much!

I haven't enjoyed a show this much from the get-go since Six Feet Under!

I love the broadway references and cameos. I was so sad that Patti Lupone didn't play herself though, I really really wanted a scene Between Justin and Patti Lupone.

I love that kid. . cracks me up every time.

Fantastic finale. And she was great. She looked quite radiant, actually. "Drew Barrymore!", ahhhh, still cracks me up.

Such a dramatic episode - but it really leaves me in suspense! I hope Chenoweth makes some more appearances on the show, she was great!

Dont forget the Wicked references that were recently in Ugly Betty- in one episode, she went to see Wicked
