Doherty Gets Speaking Gigs Over Jail |
 |
Doherty, who didn't show up for Tuesday's sentencing, was ordered to pay $1,500 in fines and was put on three years' probation. She's also not allowed to drive with any alcohol in her system, and she'll have to attend a series of DUI classes.
But the real sticking point Tuesday was over what kind of community service the actress would be allowed to perform, instead of jail time. Prosecutors pushed for a standard punishment--which would include Doherty doing the always-enjoyable roadside trash pickup. But Judge Charles Campbell ultimately agreed to let her work off some of the time by doing speaking engagements at teen centers and meetings for Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Full Story

'Buffy's' Gone, but The WB Is Still 'Charmed' |

The network's No. 1 rated spot is taken by the Monday-night family saga "7th Heaven," while "Charmed" is the second highest. "Everybody's always surprised to find out we're actually a higher-rated show," says Brad Kern, executive producer of "Charmed," which is rated just ahead of third-place "Buffy".
