Ugly Betty Takes Over DUMBO
All signs pointed to Ugly Betty taking over DUMBO today (remember, this 3rd season the show has moved filming to New York), and even though the show infiltrated the cobblestone streets, no one really noticed in the sweet shadow of the Van Leeuwan Ice Cream Truck. For fans of Betty, here are some scenes that confused onlookers were treated to...the cast and crew should be out there til around 9 p.m. tonight.
America Fererra, Becki Newton (who plays Amanda) and Michael Urie (who plays Marc) were all on set -- and paparazzi were there to watch every move (likely hoping to see Lindsay Lohan, who has appeared on the show). Filming in Brooklyn has some additional pics, as does CarrotCreative. Maybe they'll be at Metropolitan Life Insurance's North Building sometime soon, since that's where the show is set.

Ugly Betty is set in the New York Life Building, not the Metropolitan Life Building.

I saw this while going over the Manhattan Bridge. Wondered what it was.

"remember, this 3rd season the show has moved filming to New York."
Gee, Jen, thanks so-o-o much for reminding us dolts about it! Without you telling us, we would have forgotten all about it. So glad you've got your finger on the pulse.

They were also filming in Long Island City this week.

Actually I had no idea so thanks for the thread. I am a fan of UB but hadn't kept up.
