LONDON - The TV show ‘Ugly Betty’ is in danger of being cancelled after its ratings dropped in the US.
Thesun.co.uk reports that viewers were not watching the show apparently because of a boring story line. Executives at ABC have moved the show from the prestigious Thursday night spot and replaced it with comedy ‘Samantha Who’.
‘The Thursday night block is a good opportunity to launch these comedies. That said, ‘Ugly Betty’ is a solid performer and there is no question that it will definitely be back to complete its season, just without repeats,’ a spokesperson for ABC said.
Insiders claim there may not be any new episodes of the show till June.
