I noticed Cheyenne and Sandra Bernhard are on the cover of NEXT Magazine this week.

Too bad ABC seems to have basically canceled it (they decided the slot is better suited to testing out sitcoms)

I believe Ugly Betty will be back in May.

you really think so? I would LOVE that, its apparent they aren't totally taking it off air, but its just a break... I hope it comes back soon!

I love Ugly Betty. I think Cheyenne would be good as a new Betty lover. I hope it stays on the air.

They haven't cancelled it at all; they're still making the full compliment of episodes this season, they'll still all be aired on the television. The difference is for that period of time where a show would ordinarily show repeats, there will be no Ugly Betty repeats, but the new shows instead. It's nothing like a cancellation. It's just an unfortunatele combination of shoddy reporting (because "Ugly Betty BENCHED!" will draw more eyes than "no reruns for Ugly Betty this season, just crappy new shows instead") and people not reading the news stories properly.

Are we going to see more of Bernadette Peters? WTF. The Yeti sub plot seems to have disappeared.

[Pianolin717]

Posted: 2/7/09 at 4:14pm

yeah, they need more Yeti. they just got back to Betty's love Jessie so hopefully Bernadette will be back? I really liked her!

Since none of the links that were posted work for me, could someone tell me the date Cheyenne will air?

[Pianolin717]

Posted: 2/7/09 at 4:52pm

Dolly, they have not said a date yet, all they have said is that he will be playing a gay dad

[Dollypop]

Posted: 2/7/09 at 4:54pm

So this will be a continuing role rather than a guest shot, right?

[Pianolin717]

Posted: 2/7/09 at 4:58pm

My guess is no, it just says on an upcoming episode

"Variety reports that the singing actor will play a gay dad on an upcoming episode of the award-winning comedy/drama. A broadcast date has not been announced. "

Thanks again. You're terribly sweet.

Really? That's so cool! That may actually prompt me to watch Ugly Betty.

Ummm... Sweeps this year are moved to March. They would NOT be airing reruns during sweeps programming.

I dunno I know i'm being cynical but I do think, the way ABC works, we're on the way out. SHame as I've liked this year more than most (Patricia Fields making Betty even uglier in her clothes, aside)

Yeah it's just a "hiatus" of sorts for beautiful BETTY Thank GOODNESS

More Bernie/Yeti, please, when it returns!!!

Thank you EricMontreal22 for the info about sweeps moved to March this year. That gives me hope in regards to another of my favorite shows

Posted: 2/8/09 at 9:30am

Yes, it was moved to March because of the digital conversion that happened last week (two weeks back?) to give people enough time.

[Pianolin717]

Posted: 2/8/09 at 9:50am

^^
Now the digital conversion has been changed to June

Posted: 2/8/09 at 8:29pm

Oh well it's too late to change back sweeps
