This week on PBS' SHAKESPEARE UNCOVERED, Morgan Freeman and 'THE TAMING OF THE SHREW' and David Harewood and 'OTHELLO'. The episode airs tonight, February 6, 2015 AT 9PM & 10PM.
In the fourth installment of Shakespeare Uncovered - Series 2, David Harewood asks a very difficult question. Could you kill a person you love? Shakespeare made his audience confront that question when he created the character of Othello 400 years ago. It holds a key to understanding how such a strong warrior could end up so vulnerable that he would actually consider killing his wife. Harewood says, 'Whether you love him or hate him, we have to understand Othello. If you don't understand Othello, I don't think you understand yourself.'
The next episodes of PBS' SHAKESPEARE UNCOVERED features The Taming of the Shrew with Morgan Freeman (Friday, February 6, 2015 at 9 p.m.) and Othello with David Harewood (Friday, February 6, 2015 at 10 p.m.). Check out previews for the episodes below!

This week, due to last week's Fright Night for Halloween, we got a double-helping of SELFIE, so we should all feel #blessed. In tonight's two episodes we get a lot from the ensemble, including more hilarious scene with David Harewood as Mr. Sapperstein and Samm Levine as Terrence. Even more exciting than that is the fact that love is clearly in the air for Henry and Eliza as their relationship continues to blossom.
