N September 2006, the television series Ugly Betty aired on ABC. Produced by Salma Hayek, the series is based on a Columbian telenovela, or soap opera, called Yo Soy Betty La Fea. The series is about a young woman, Betty Suarez, who works as an assistant at a fashion magazine. Hayek not only produced the series, but she also guest-starred as a magazine editor. She won an Emmy for her guest spot on the show. The series won a Golden Globe in 2007 for an Outstanding Comedy Series, and America Ferrara won for Best Actress for her portrayal of the lead character. Ugly Betty has won numerous other awards for the show and its actors. The show was a hit in its first two seasons, airing before the ABC megahit Grey’s Anatomy. However, after the show was moved to Friday nights, it struggled in the ratings. Everyone knows Friday night shows are totally dead. In January 2010, ABC and the producers of Ugly Betty announced that the fourth season would be its last. ABC announced the cancellation of the series early so that the show’s producers and writers would be able to wrap up current storylines and give Ugly Betty a proper farewell. 7
