Grey’s Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Lost, Dancing with the Stars, George Lopez and Latino television phenomenon Ugly Betty will be dubbed into Spanish, with the remainder of the network’s regular primetime entertainment lineup available with Spanish language subtitles. In addition, select specials will also be dubbed into Spanish.
