One of ABC's primetime comedies will be no more after its current season. According to The Hollywood Reporter's The Live Feed, ABC has canceled Ugly Betty. The network released the following statement on the cancellation:

"We've mutually come to the difficult decision to make this Ugly Betty's final season, and are announcing now as we want to allow the show ample time to write a satisfying conclusion. We are extremely proud of this groundbreaking series, and felt it was important to give the fans a proper farewell."

The show had been suffering in ratings and the network kept trying to find a suitable day to air the show, moving it from Thursday to Friday and even to Wednesday after the network's comedy block.
