Ugly Betty set to film in New York

After the filming of two series in Los Angeles, 'Ugly Betty' is expected to relocate to New York for the shooting of its third series.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the makers of the show are keen to avail of New York state's decision to triple film and TV production tax credits to 30%, with the city offering another 5% tax credit.
While the pilot of 'Ugly Betty' was shot in New York, production of series one and two took place in Los Angeles because it was cheaper.
Production on the third series of 'Ugly Betty' is due to begin in July.
