With the television universe awash in fashion-themed programming, it seems one notable show has dried out.
ABC confirmed Wednesday that it canceled “Ugly Betty,” the kooky dramedy set at fictional fashion mag MODE. Originally a Colombian telenovela, the show shot to success when it premiered in the U.S. in 2006 starring America Ferrera as Betty. Ratings declined in recent seasons, most likely due to its unsuccessful shifts from Thursday to Friday to Wednesday nights.
The cast will finish the eight episodes left in the fourth season and then move on to other projects. Vanessa Williams, who plays an ice-hearted editor, already has work in the Broadway show “Sondheim on Sondheim” opening in April. Perhaps Ferrera will learn to sing too.
Are you a crushed fan of the show? Sound off now!

Ugly Betty is a hilarious show. ABC's always canceling something good. First, Samantha Who, now this.
