Ugly Betty

Ugly Betty is an American comedy-drama television series developed by Silvio Horta, which aired on ABC from September 28, 2006, to April 14, 2010. It is based on the Colombian telenovela Yo soy Betty, la fea, created by Fernando Gaitán. The series follows Betty Suarez, a smart and well-meaning young woman from Queens, New York, who lacks fashion sense but secures a job at a high-end fashion magazine, Mode. As she navigates a glamorous but cutthroat industry, Betty challenges stereotypes and expectations while advancing her career and maintaining close ties to her family. The series was produced by Salma Hayek's production company Ventanarosa, along with Silent H Productions, Reveille Productions, and ABC Studios. The pilot episode was filmed in New York City, but production moved to Los Angeles for the first two seasons before returning to New York for the final two.
