Question about discharging things before working on TV

Can someone please provide a source of info or an answer to making sure components are safely discharged before your hands go into a TV chassis?

Would it be something like:

With the TV unplugged,

Using a well insulated screwdriver and a grounding clip on the shaft, grounded to the chassis, slide the screwdriver under the HV connection on the tube until you get a spark.

Short the terminals of all can style electrolytic capacitors.

Anything else?
