Let the mourning for Ugly Betty continue.  A couple of days ago, we reported that Mark Indelicato was distraught at how the ABC comedy was cancelled.  Now, we're hearing more stars of the series worry over the recent axing of the show.

"I gotta be honest, we're devastated," Williams told Showbiz Spy.  "We're sad, we're not ready for it to end."

The 46-year-old actress even added that she was outraged at how the ABC heads made the decision so quickly.  It's just been a year since the Ugly Betty cast and crew moved filming from Los Angeles to New York, then this hits them.

"We just moved to New York.  We just got on a roll," Vanessa Williams went on.  "Our season this year has been the best we've ever had.  But numbers and ratings were a concern.  A lot of people couldn't even find us."

The schedule was another thing to blame.  "We switched -- we were put on Thursday then taken off then Fridays, now we're finally on Wednesday nights," she explained.  "But we're sad."

Even the comical Michael Urie agrees.  He told The Huffington Post that he was "[n]ot shocked, but still saddened.  Secretly hoped we had one more move in us, back to one of our former time slots."

Despite their sorrow, however, the Ugly Betty cast still has to push through with the last few episodes.  The finale is scheduled to air in April, so everyone still has time to wrap it all up.

"Everyone is sad, but still enjoying each other and the material," Urie declared.  "We are very lucky to have a solid two month period to savor every last moment.  It's a lucky thing to know when the end is, many shows do not."

While that truly is looking at the bright side of this situation, that still doesn't bring back Ugly Betty in its entirety.  Still, let's just be ready for whatever they throw at us in that finale.
