ABC head honchos have canceled “Ugly Betty“!

ABC informed the cast and producers that the show’s fourth season would be its last and there’s not going to be a fifth.

According to The Ausiello Files, there’s plenty of time for the show to work on its series finale:

The good news is that ABC has given Betty’s bosses enough time to craft a satisfying series finale. Exec producer Silvio Horta and ABC president Steve McPherson confirmed as much in this joint statement: “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.”

Just call them the latest victim of poor ratings.
