Though the show takes place in New York, Ugly Betty isn't actually filmed there; the first two seasons were filmed in Los Angeles. However, with Gov. Paterson's new tax credit program, the show may uproot and make a move east.
Variety reports that the city may be cast in its own role as early as next season. But just as New York was unhappy about losing movie money to Connecticut, LA doesn't want to bid farewell to Betty. If it goes through (ABC hasn't commented just yet), over 100 employees of the show will be left behind. In the coastal tug-of-war, Paterson's plan is the strong arm; under it "the percentage of qualified film production costs eligible for a tax credit tripled, from 10% to 30%. New York City chips in an additional 5% tax break."
Last year, production designer Mark Worthington discussed the “New York scenery” that the show uses, which is all created digitally. Blue screens and computer imaging, along with "high definition digital video of New York City that was pre-shot and then superimposed," all make up the faux-NY. Fun fact: Broadway & 3rd in downtown Los Angeles looks exactly like Queens!

I think it would've been better to keep filming in NY after the pilot. This way they were on location. But now that they're settled in LA, they should stay in LA.

I don't agree with this move, actually. Everyone is saying how nice it would be for the show to be filming in NYC, but I really don't see the need to do that - especially since not everyone is happy with the move. I think everyone should have a say in it, not just a few people. And from what I'm reading, that's not the case. I honestly don't see how changing costumes and locale will save this show's sagging ratings.
