Ugly Betty update

By David Knox on April 29, 2010 / Filed Under Programming 11

Some changes through from 7TWO….

Next Tuesday May 4th, Ugly Betty airs as a double episode from 6:30pm, bumping Full House and Samantha Who out -both shows remain on other nights.

Corrected: On May 11th Ugly Betty will be at 6:30pm with Situation Critical at 7:30pm.

Meanwhile Eli Stone is out on Thursday 6th with a double Prime Suspect in place from 8:30pm.

Same again on May 13.

That is all…

    I (kinda) understood when 7 had one channel that they needed to swap times to maximise ratings etc. But now that they have an additional channel, swapping times, especially without notification, is inexcusable. 7+7TWO = Worst. Channels. Ever.

    I have been enjoying watching Ugly Betty (and Samatha Who?) at a regular time each week now I have to start chasing this show as well and I agree 6.30pm is an odd time to put this type of show on.
    Thanks to TV Tonight I will at least have a better chance of catching it.

    @ Mydoona.
    You must be setting your PVR incorrectly. Betty hasn’t finished later than 8.35.

    I gave up on Ugly Betty because I would tape it to watch later and because 7two can’t manage to run things on time I always missed out on the last 15 mins of the show.

    Seven/7TWo really dont like Ugly Betty these days.
    I wonder what they are going to add to 7TWO once 24, Lost and Betty all end their current seasons/series.

    A first run of a series at 6.30pm. That’s stupid.

    In some cases the digital channels have helped networks win the week. That puts them under a load of pressure.

    7TWO is now becoming as prolific as Channel 9/GO! with schedule changes… which helps nobody… and what is to be gained by putting Ugly Betty on at 6.30? Surely it would conflict with Home And Away’s demographic at 7.00? The digital channels were not meant to be under the same ratings pressure as the main channels so would allow shows to play out without so many changes. Obviously that phase was only short lived.
