First Jon & Kate, now
David Letterman.
For its latest ripped-from-the-headlines story line,
Law & Order will take a page out of the
Late Show host's sex-with-staffers extortion scandal,
Entertainment Weekly reports.
Law & Order executive producer spills on Jon & Kate-inspired episodeThe episode will focus on a female talk-show host in her 40s, married with children, who gets blackmailed when someone gets wind of her affairs with her female employees. Things take a turn for the worse when someone involved in the trysts winds up dead.
Letterman felt "threatened" over extortion attemptLetterman, who came clean about his affairs last month, isn't the only pop-culture reference in the episode. According to
The Wrap, the female host, named Vanessa Carville, co-hosts a daily chatfest with a panel of women not unlike
The View.
NBC could not confirm the report.
What do you think? Is it too soon to take a dig at Dave?
