Ugly Betty is back with the premiere of its fourth season tonight and there are big changes at Mode magazine—including a slightly less ugly version of Betty who’s now an associate editor. Everything isn’t all rosy for Betty, of course, now that her ex-boyfriend Matt is her boss while Daniel has a hard time dealing with the death of Molly and the loss of Betty as his faithful assistant.
On the new Travel Channel series Ghost Stories, different cities and their most haunted attractions are featured. Tonight, West Virginia is up and one of their spooky sites includes a lunatic asylum!
And, Cesar Millan takes on a different kind of scary on tonight’s episode of The Dog Whisperer when he tries to rehabilitate a Lab-madtiff mix named Cujo . . . yes, just like the dog in the famed Stephen King tale and yes . . . this dog takes after his namesake!
