“The Great Experiment” is the title of a new episode of Madam Secretary airing tonight (April 14) and Jane Pauley guest stars as herself.
Here’s how CBS describes it:
As Elizabeth prepares to officially declare her candidacy for president, she must deal with fallout from a news article alleging she had an affair with President Dalton during her CIA days. Also, Mike B. and Jay adjust to the growing pains in their expanded roles as campaign staffers, and Elizabeth calls for a UN criminal tribunal against Myanmar military leaders over their treatment of the Rohingya, on MADAM SECRETARY, Sunday, April 14 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Jane Pauley guest stars as herself.
They’re really leaning in on the Hillary Clinton parallels, aren’t they?
