Tonight's Law and Order: Special Victims Unit
TWO STRIPPERS ARE MURDERED, BUT WAS THE PRIME SUSPECT FRAMED? - Rebecca De Mornay, Chris Potter and Betty Buckley Guest Star - When the body of a young woman is found murdered in her apartment, Detectives Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Stabler (Chris Meloni) discover she's a successful attorney - and stripper, which is apparently unknown to her fiancé and boss...
And, as a special bonus, it was filmed at this famous Essex County landmark.
(Thanks to Sharon Gill for the heads up.)

I just have to say--I Have a huge crush on Chris Meloni! Well now that I have gotten that off my chest-back to my sexy chores (laundry, vacuming, cleaning up waterpaints).

Yeah, he's a cutie, I agree. I remember him from Oz, one of the ebst shows on HBO, in my opinion.

but isn't that such a tired old plot device? it's always something so prurient masquerading as a script: 'tonight, charlies angels must pose as three dollar whores in order to infiltrate a nuclear secrets organization' - 'a beautiful high school guidance counselor must moonlight as a callgirl in order to pay for her mother's operation in this episode of some crappy show' - 'a prominent neurosurgeon leads a double life as a nymphomaniac lesbian pole dancer so she can better understand her clients' sadness at losing their breast elasticity' - 'an 18 year old computer professor at MIT is discovered to be the star of seven girls gone wild videos and decides to bring her students to ixtapa for a seminar.....' it's basically all the same formulaic tv programming, hinging on getting some babe with a great rack into a thong for most of the episode.

fran,
I think I've seen all those movies you describe on lifetime movie channel.
This past weekend there was Lindsey Wagner as the database designing Mom, who went undercover as a hooker to look for her daughter - who was being pimped out by Chad Lowe.
For the record Chad Lowe did have a line "You're my million dollar baby."

Kinda off-topic, my family and I went to dinner and a show in NYC in January. We had dinner at Joe Allen's before seeing Spamalot. Mariska Hargitay walks in with a large group. Brush with greatness.

Hmmm. Interesting point. I'm going to have to study this problem in depth and get back to you...
