"Ugly Betty" To Move To ABC Sundays?
The broadcast networks in the US are scrambling to put together their new fall grids ahead of the Upfronts event in New York City next week where all schedule changes are unveiled. As TV Guide reports, one of those changes at ABC may be an "Ugly" one.
According to Michael Ausiello, the network is considering moving the critically-acclaimed comedy to Sundays at 8 as a lead-in to "Desperate Housewives," perhaps a more compatible pairing.
"Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" would, under that scenario, move to 7 p.m. replacing "America's Funniest Home Videos," while "Men In Trees" which gets an extended 27-episode season would anchor Thursday nights from 8 p.m.
There is no indication yet if "Brothers & Sisters" would remain on Sunday nights at 10 p.m., but there have been rumors in the past the show could move to Monday or Tuesday nights.
The network will of course have the final say. ABC is presenting its new schedule on Tuesday, May 15 at 4 p.m. EST.

UB on Sunday's? I could live with that. I assume October Road would get cancelled, and Grey's Spinoff would go at 10 on Thurs. Men in Trees at 8pm? WTF?
I wonder if Traveler will come back in the winter, provided it gets good ratings, VERY good ratings.
I imagine that Wednesdays will be totally new with Lost delayed until Feb.
I don't see Boston Legal changing timeslots anytime soon.
Bros. and Sis should stay put, EM at 7 PM kinda sucks, they should put Betty there and keep EM as is.
Friday nights should be to test new shows, as should the rest of the nights not currently occupied. Monday Night should be where they stuff all their reality junk.
