Art will imitate celebrity life on NBC's "Law & Order."
In an episode that begins filming this week, Chevy Chase guest stars as a TV celebrity who spews religious epithets after being pulled over by police for drunken driving, the network said Tuesday.
The episode, titled "In Vino Veritas," is scheduled to air Nov. 3.
Although there are similarities between the episode and Mel Gibson's recent legal troubles, a spokesman for NBC noted that the long-running "Law & Order" drama series "is completely fiction."
