List of episodes

Outside the United States, Season 4 began airing on digital channel 7TWO on April 13, 2010, in Australia, and on August 11, 2010, on E4 and Channel 4 in the UK.

The season had been shifted to the Friday night death slot and ratings for the first 8 episodes were extremely low (especially the seventh which became the all-time lowest rated episode). On December 2, 2009, ABC confirmed that Ugly Betty would be moving to Wednesday nights after Christmas 2009, due to Eastwick's cancellation. However, ratings did not improve and ABC lowered the episode count from an original 22 to 20.^[2] On January 27, 2010, ABC announced the show would not be brought back for a fifth season.^[3]

Most of the main cast from the show's third season returned for the fourth season, with the exception of Ashley Jensen. Daniel Eric Gold was promoted to the main cast as Matt Hartley, having appeared in a recurring capacity during Season 3.
