Chevy Chase to guest star on Law & Order

Chevy Chase has started shooting an episode of Law & Order in which he plays a celebrity who is stopped for drunk driving and whose "religious prejudice" comes out -- okay, he's playing Mel Gibson. Since this is Law & Order and not, say, Reno 911!, Chevy's fictional character will also be found with blood on him, making for a major-crimes angle.

Count on Jack McCoy and the rest of the gang to have this one neatly sorted within forty-three minutes as usual. Win or lose, next week they'll be on to another story distilled from some other headline. One episode, one case, the end.
