E! Online Report on Ugly Betty at the Upfronts
13 May 2008 | by: mona | 0 Responses

"Ugly Betty Is Most Definitely Moving to NYC: Says McPherson, "The pilot was shot in New York. The show is based in New York. And the studio made the decision that given the current climate in New York, it made a lot of sense to move it back. We're excited from a production standpoint to have that real New York quality, because as much as people try to cheat New York, it's really hard to do so. So I think it's sort of funny that people are taking issue with the fact that it's cheaper to do a show in New York about New York." McPherson also says all castmembers will be on board, but that Rebecca Romijn has "left the show." When asked why, he says Rebecca's run was always supposed to be a limited engagement and now that run is over. (Something tells me that's news to Rebecca.)

Ugly Betty Is Getting Back to Betty: "Silvio [Horta] is very smart to do what he's doing. I think that on Ugly Betty, there was sort of a flight of fancy that was going on there and it was funny, but I think it got away from the core that really is the heart of the show. And some of the episodes at the end of this year have gotten back to that." Also, LiLo will be back. "[Lindsay Lohan] is going to do more episodes next year. I don't know that the New York move will affect that, but she is doing more than one episode next season.""

Schwarzenegger Backs Fired 'Ugly Betty' Crew
13 May 2008 | by: mona | 0 Responses

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has offered his support to angry crewmembers on TV series Ugly Betty, who will lose their jobs when the show moves from Los Angeles to New York. Producers last week made the decision to relocate the set to make the most of new tax incentives on offer in New York. But the move will leave 300 people out of work, including dry cleaners, caterers and construction firms. The disgruntled employees grouped together to take out an ad in Hollywood trade paper Variety, appealing to Schwarzenegger to help stop the loss of more business. Addressing the letter, the governor insists tax incentives have been drawn up - but have yet to be approved by the California legislature. He insists they are a necessity, if the state wants to keep its status as the home of movies and TV. He says, "What happened was productions that shifted to other states, didn't come back to California; they went to Louisiana, they went to Florida, they went to New Mexico because they give great tax incentives."

Official Move Announcement
12 May 2008 | by: mona | 0 Responses

NEW YORK - Production of ABC's "Ugly Betty" is moving to New York.

The announcement was made Monday by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Governor David Paterson and ABC Studios President Mark Pedowitz. They say the show will take advantage of a 35 percent tax credit from the city and state when it makes the move from Los Angeles.

"Ugly Betty" stars Emmy winner America Ferrera as Betty Suarez, a young woman from Queens who works for a fashion magazine.

The comedy will be filmed in Manhattan and Queens. It is expected to create more than 200 full and part-time jobs.

"Law & Order," "30 Rock" and "Gossip Girl" are filmed in Manhattan.

Vanessa Williams Finally Earns Syracuse Degree
7 May 2008 | by: lauren | 0 Responses

Twenty-five years after bouncing from Syracuse University with her Miss America crown in tow, Vanessa Williams will finally receive her bachelor of fine arts degree during graduation exercises Saturday.

The 45-year-old star of ABC's "Ugly Betty" will also deliver the convocation address to graduates of Syracuse's College of Visual and Performing Arts, according to the Associated Press.

The actress-singer attended Syracuse's drama department as a musical theater major from 1981-1983. She left after making history in 1983 by becoming the first black Miss America. But she turned in her crown in July 1984 after Penthouse magazine published nude, sexually explicit photographs of her taken several years earlier.

The entertainer went on to sell more than 4 million albums, star on Broadway and appear in dozens of television shows and films. She has won a Tony, received two NAACP Image Awards and nine Grammy nominations.

She earned the remaining credits for her degree through industry experience and performances on stage and screen.


Ugly Betty Packs Bags for NYC
7 May 2008 | by: lauren | 4 Responses

Though the show takes place in New York, Ugly Betty isn't actually filmed there; the first two seasons were filmed in Los Angeles. However, with Gov. Paterson's new tax credit program, the show may uproot and make a move east.

Variety reports that the city may be cast in its own role as early as next season. But just as New York was unhappy about losing movie money to Connecticut, LA doesn't want to bid farewell to Betty. If it goes through (ABC hasn't commented just yet), over 100 employees of the show will be left behind. In the coastal tug-of-war, Paterson's plan is the strong arm; under it "the percentage of qualified film production costs eligible for a tax credit tripled, from 10% to 30%. New York City chips in an additional 5% tax break."

Last year, production designer Mark Worthington discussed the “New York scenery” that the show uses, which is all created digitally. Blue screens and computer imaging, along with "high definition digital video of New York City that was pre-shot and then superimposed," all make up the faux-NY. Fun fact: Broadway & 3rd in downtown Los Angeles looks exactly like Queens!
