The Daily Show” to Tape at D.C.’s Shakespeare Theatre Company in October
Washington politics, theatre and television should mix in a lively mish-mash when “The Daily Show with John Stewart” tapes four episodes at The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s Sidney Harman Hall this October. The episodes will air Oct. 25-28 at 11 PM ET on Comedy Central.

“The Daily Show” is taping at the Shakespeare Theatre as part of its “Indecision 2010″ coverage of the midterm elections. The show has traditionally left its usual Manhattan taping studio for “Indecision” coverage of both the national party conventions and of midterm elections. The show previously taped episodes in Washington during the 2002 midterms.

“The Daily Show” is hosted by Jon Stewart, and its team of reporters include stage vets Samantha Bee (Love, Loss and What I Wore) and Aasif Mandvi (Oklahoma!, Homebody/Kabul), in addition to Wyatt Cenac, Jason Jones and John Oliver.

Sidney Harman Hall is located at 610 F Street NW in Washington. For tickets, visit thedailyshow.com.

Gerald McRaney (Johnston Green) “Undercovers” and Skeet Ulrich (Jake Green) “Law & Order: LA” preview write up: http://www.thestevenetwork.ca/2010/08/11/fall-2010-tv-preview/
Law and Order: Los Angeles: The pitch: In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate but equally important groups. That show was awesome. However, they’ve now cancelled the original and kept all the crap it left in its wake.
My take: While I usually try to avoid ripping the LAO SVU faithful (they are almost as vicious as the NCIS posse), I can’t help myself. Each spinoff got worse. I will say that L.A. is a nice touch and I am more optimistic about this one than all the others combined. This show hinges on one good smartass cop and one cut throat district attorney. I will reserve judgment until I see the cast in a preview, which I can’t find, but Skeet Ulrich is playing a detective (can’t see him being funny but he was great in Jericho) and Oscar nominee Terrance Howard will be deputy D.A.
Competition: The Whole Truth, The Defenders.

Undercovers: The pitch: The official pitch…….a sexy, fun, action-packed spy drama that proves once and for all that marriage is still the world’s most dangerous partnership (Read: Mr. and Mrs. Smith, with black people).
My take: I’ve put a positive spin on too many NBC shows – but this sorry excuse for television, not so much.
Supporting cast shoutout: The lone bright spot is Gerald McRaney (Johnston Green from Jericho, George Hearst in Deadwood, and of course, Major Dad).
Competition: Survivor, America’s Next Top Model, Lie to Me.
