  1. What is going on with Ugly Betty Scheduling. Channel four should take note of its regular viewers who tune in week aftr week for thier favourite shows not bump Ugly Betty everytime they show a gimmmicky special - find somewhere else to put it!

  9. Thanks ever so much Channel 4 for informing us of this schedule change 5 days AFTER the show was originally supposed to be aired and two days before its re-scheduled airing. (Unless you didn't realise I was being sarcastic) Perhaps you should have thought of doing something like this earlier and shuffled you schedules round to air it some other time?? Just common sense really...

  10. I still don't really understand why you couldn't have shown Ugly Betty when you showed Gordon RamsaY? I mean, seriously, what is the point in changing viewing times at all? Surely if a series is on, then it should be shown at the same time every week until that series is over. It doesn't make sense and I'm certainly peeved that the change wasn't advertised!

  12. Due to the special Derren Brown programme on Wednesday 9 September, the episode of Ugly Betty (repeat of the episode screened on E4 on 8 September) was not shown. This particular episode (Sisters on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown) will screen on Channel 4 on 16 September. For this week only, there will be no repeat screening on E4 on Sunday 13 September, but scheduling back to normal next week. Until the episode has screened on Channel 4 on 16 September, it will not be available for inclusion on the 4oD site.

  13. By not giving viewers a heads up on the rescheduling of Ugly Betty, CH4 have alarmed and wasted the time of loyal viewers. Some programmes are part of an evening that families/friends look forward to and people choose to stay in for. It's not the end of the world but it certainly the end of a preplanned evening. Totally inconsiderate that changes weren't highlighted. Too little too late the apology. Time to get some consideration towards those who tune in.

  15. very disappointed channel 4. ugly betty is a very popular show, the schedule should be changed to fit around ugly betty not the other way around. also it should definitely be online, lots of people watch it online instead of on the tv anyway, myself included.

  17. What are you playing at C4!? You could easily haven showen this episode on Sunday at the usual times. I have just loked at today's schedule and tonights 6pm show hasbeen replaced by friends, which eveyone has seen at least 100 times. I think you should allow us to see this episode on 4od even if it hasn't been shown on telly. Roxanne - It is not that people are obsessed, just that they left abit of cliffhanger in the last episode and followers wanted to know what happened. :-)

  32. I would have watched or recorded the episode on E4, if I'd known that it wouldn't be online because of the delayed channel 4 showing. It should be available online anyway- it's already been on twice on e4 & e4 1. Not happy channel 4.

  37. We are terribly sorry for the schedule change as we are currently trying to make our service and program timing for the viewers more appropriate and flexible.This is just a one-off incident and all Ugly Betty episodes will be back to regular timing next week. the channel4.com team

  39. Episode 13 on E4 on Tuesday 15th Sept. Does that mean that we will receive Episode 12 AND Episode 13 on Wednesday 16th Sept on Channel 4. We get to see two Episodes on one night. It will be worth waiting for catch up!

  47. Ugly Betty is a must TV on Wed at our house. It should have been told last week but they didn't mention it at all. Why can't they show it... Darren Brown already had an hour.

  51. The reason it wasn't on E4 last night, or that it's on tonight is because Derren Brown's new show will be shown instead. The next episode will be shown at the usual times next week.

  54. I have been catching up on previously recorded episodes and have just found that I have missed tonights episode. I rely on the Series link and I don't know what happened tonight. Janice's comments have helped me pick some of this up but why not tell us when you are making a change. I have spent about an hour looking for tonights episode going through the Sky chanels. Thank you Janice and Dee

  55. i think that ugly betty is very good but i also think that it should be on a thursday or if that is not possible i think it should be shown at 8 instead of 9 and 10 because sometimes i miss it on tuesday and i am not alloweed at stay up late on thursday till 11!:)
