"The Daily Show & Friends" features comedy from John Oliver [photo at right], Rob Riggle, Rory Albanese, Adam Lowitt and Wyatt Cenac, with "a special performance" by Lewis Black -- and it's free. (Gates open at 7 p.m., rain or shine.)

This is the fourth annual Comedy Central Park show in the city's weeks-long Summerstage series. (Click Summerstage for info.)

Diane Werts

Diane Werts has been glued to the tube since she can remember, growing up in a household where the TV came on first thing in the morning and stayed on till bedtime and beyond. She worked for the USA Film Festival, then for The Dallas Morning News writing about everything from Shakespeare to macrame art to rock music (and has the hearing loss to prove it). She moved to New York's Newsday to edit their glossy TV magazine, then returned to writing about television, specializing in its stranger permutations. She's a past president of the Television Critics Association.
