Mark and Ana sit down with the incredible Michael Urie - the endless talent behind Mode’s very own Marc St. James. Together they laugh (about fittings with costume designer Pat Field and her poodles), they cry (about the tender relationship between Marc and Justin), and they even bleed (or at least Michael did when he ran in crocs).

Ugly Betty was more than just a show - it was a revolution. Bold, heartfelt, and unapologetically real, it gave us characters that shattered stereotypes and told stories that mattered, putting a working-class Latino family, the immigrant experience, and LGBTQ+ stories front and center. 

Now, Ana Ortiz and Mark Indelicato—aka Hilda and Justin—are sitting down to rewatch the show that changed their lives and ours. With fresh eyes and zero filter, they’re revisiting every messy moment, iconic outfit, and groundbreaking storyline, one episode at a time.

This isn’t just a nostalgia trip. It’s a love letter to the show that made being different feel like a superpower. Pull up a chair, there’s room at the table for you!
