THE SKINNY: ABC is rewarding its top-rated new show of the season, UGLY BETTY, with an order for nine additional episodes, making for a full season’s worth of shows.

UGLY BETTY has posted the best ratings of any new fall show, and has given ABC its highest numbers in 13 years for a scripted show that’s occupied the Thursday 8 p.m. timeslot.

O.K., so that last part might be a bit too specific to really get excited about, but it’s good news for star America Ferrera (who plays Betty), and certainly for co-star Vanessa Williams, the former Miss America whose last series effort was the little-seen SOUTH BEACH on the no-longer seen UPN network.
