HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 14, 2001 -- "Beverly Hills, 90210" alumnus Jason Priestley will spend five days in a private L.A. work-release program after pleading no contest last year to a felony drunken-driving charge.
An L.A. judge sentenced the former teen heartthrob in March to five days in the correctional facility and three year's summary probation. Priestley's driver's license was also suspended for one year, and he was ordered to enroll in a three-month drug- and alcohol-treatment program in exchange for dropping a second felony DUI charge.
The actor will serve his time this month, and the five-day stay must be completed by Jan. 30.
Priestley, 31, was arrested in December 1999 after he crashed his Porsche into a power pole, trash cans and a parked car in the Hollywood Hills.

"Will & Grace" sadly ha

HOLLYWOOD, May 14, 2000 -- Sometimes all these special events during sweeps months just get in the way. They drive a wedge between you, the viewer, and your favorite shows. But, then again, if it wasn't for the May sweeps, there'd be no season finale cliffhangers. And if there were no season finale cliffhangers … Well, we'd rather not even think about a world that bleak. Instead, let's get ready for some quality time with our favorite shows before the summer reruns start… It's season finale week! But first, some special events:
-- After months of soul-searching and hard prayer seeking a solution to ABC's "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," CBS may have just found the answer in "Jesus" (9 p.m. EDT/PDT, Sunday and Wednesday). Produced by Lorenzo Minoli, who has brought a slew of Old Testament-themed movies to TNT, "Jesus" promises not only a lavish production, but also a more-modern
