ugly betty to move to wednesday nights in america?!

Ugly Betty May Steal Eastwick Slot From Lost
Today 6:15 AM PST by Kristin Dos Santos

Not even Jerry O'Connell's bare backside could save it.

Despite JOC telling us he was just shooting some "sexy scenes" last night on the set of Eastwick, the news has broken that his wife Rebecca Romijn's series is a goner. ABC has confirmed that no new episodes will be produced beyond the original 13-episode commitment.

So this means Lost is a shoo-in to come back to Wednesday nights, right?

Maybe not.

ABC insiders tell me another series might be headed for that cushy slot, and its star happens to rock a mean Guadalajara poncho...

According to sources, ABC higher-ups are considering moving Ugly Betty to Wednesdays at 10 in January as part of a flashy relaunch of the show in an effort to save it. The thinking is that Betty would complement new hits Modern Family and Cougar Town nicely, and make ABC a solid destination for comedy on Wednesday night.

Nothing has been decided, but I'm told this is one option on the table.

"Honest to god, they haven't given us a date yet," Lost boss Damon Lindelof recently told USA Today. "I don't even know what night it's going to be on. We've been on Wednesday at 9 for a while, but now ABC's comedies are actually working. And I actually like Modern Family and Cougar Town, so I'm not sure that they'll move them."

No word yet on where Lost will go if Betty gets Eastwick's Wednesday slot.

According to insiders, Betty also has a creative resurgence in the works, including an episode in the spirit of Run Lola Run in which Betty must race across town to deliver a diamond-encrusted bra, which sounds pretty exciting. ABC execs asked producers to move the episode up to an earlier date because they liked it so much, according to my mole.

OMG IS THIS GOOD?!?

IT SEEMS GOOD!!!!!

moving it to fridays was a dumb decision by abc- they should've known it wasn't going to work out. but now, it's moved to wednesdays, it gives us hope that we might see a 5th season of ugly betty, should the ratings improve on wed nights.

now that this timeslot has been sorted out once and for all, perhaps silvio and co can now concenrtrate on writing more and more better storylines for ugly betty.
