As many of the Ugly Betty fans might already know, the show will be moving from Thursday nights to Fridays with the next season. This has caused quite the debate among Ugly Betty viewers, but ABC’s president Stephen McPherson is here to defend his decision, saying:

“I love the show [and] America [Ferrera] is one of our biggest stars,” says McPherson. “[But] you look at [Betty's declining ratings on] Thursday night and we think we have a big opportunity with Flash Forward. You have to make some bold moves sometimes. To me, I’d love to see [Betty] have a great run on Friday night the way Ghost Whisperer has [for CBS].”

What do you think of the move? Will it be uglier or better (see what I just did there?) for Betty?
