SUPERSTORE Books (Another) UGLY BETTY Reunion
April 11, 2019 by Marisa Roffman
UGLY BETTY — ABC TV Series,”Be-Shure” – Against the backdrop of Ignacio’s multi-culti holiday dinner that he prepares for his new flame Jean (Faith Prince), who is Jewish, Betty and Hilda have pregnancy scares. Worse, they purchase their Be-Shure instant pregnancy tests from the local pharmacy — where Jean works and Ignacio is shopping. Meanwhile, Hartley installs Willie’s replacement, a clueless Hollywood mogul, Denise Ludwig (Nadia Dajani), whose claim to fame is a tacky movie, but Marc has a plan to get Willie back — if only Daniel will agree. And Claire gets Amanda’s help and tracks down Tyler (Neal Bledsoe), the son she long ago gave up for adoption, on “Ugly Betty,” FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

ANA ORTIZ, AMERICA FERRERA
SUPERSTORE is staging another UGLY BETTY reunion!
Ana Ortiz, who co-starred on the ABC dramedy with SUPERSTORE’s America Ferrera (where the duo played sisters), will guest star in a May episode of the NBC comedy.
Ortiz—who is currently starring on WHISKEY CAVALIER—will play Claudia Lankow, a “no-nonsense Senior Vice President of Operations at Cloud 9 who holds the fate of the Ozark Highlands store in her hands.” With Amy (Ferrera) now set as the manager for that branch, this will put her toe-to-toe with Claudia. (As a fun bonus, Ferrera directed the episode.)
Additionally, MADTV’s Anjelah Johnson guest stars in the same episode as Robin Green, a labor organizer from Retail Workers United—who is there to talk to the Cloud 9 employees about possibly joining a union.
This marks the second significant UGLY BETTY reunion on SUPERSTORE: Tony Plana, who played Ferrera’s UB father, appeared in 2017 episode as Amy’s father; he’ll also return later this season. Off-screen, UGLY BETTY’s Judith Light moderated the show’s recent FYC panel.
Are you excited to see Ortiz and Johnson on SUPERSTORE?
