"This is Pittsburgh through two regular Pittsburghers'
eyes," is how co-creator Dave Hallewell describes Dave & Dave's
Excellent Adventures. Hallewell, along with Dave Rhodes, make up "the
Daves" and have been regular correspondents for OnQ, WQED tv13's
live, nightly news magazine show, for the past 4 years. "Together,
Dave & Dave explore the soft underbelly of this region through a
unique blend of lighthearted comedy and slightly off-center reporting,
all in an easily accessible 'every-person' style."
Each 30-minute episode of Dave & Dave's Excellent
Adventures features 4 adventures from the vaults of On Q that are grouped
together and intertwined with new material and never before seen outtakes
to form a cohesive theme. Programs from the first season include "We
Get Paid To Do This," "Dream Jobs," and "What To
Do On A Friday Night."
"Our program is proof that Pittsburgh has plenty
to offer young people," suggests Dave Rhodes. "Yes, Dave and
Dave are two young people who choose to make Pittsburgh their home,
and each episode of Dave & Dave's Excellent Adventures is bursting
with the people, the places and the things that make this region special
and accessible to viewers of every age, especially Pittsburgh's younger
population."
Dave & Dave's Excellent Adventures is hosted, produced
and edited by Dave Hallewell and Dave Rhodes, who spend their days as
dedicated staffers at WQED Multimedia: Hallewell is senior producer/editor
of on-air promotion, and Rhodes is the Emmy-nominated director of WQED
Multimedia's local programs. In addition to their series, "the
Dave's" will continue to deliver brand-new adventures several times
a month to OnQ.
WQED Multimedia's newest local TV series, Dave & Dave's
Excellent Adventures airs every Saturday night at 11:30pm on WQED tv13.
