Elliott files brief with ABC
---------------------------------------------------------------------

By Nellie Andreeva
"JAG" star David James Elliott has inked a development deal with ABC
and Touchstone TV.
After 10 years on the CBS military courtroom drama, Elliott will
leave the series at season's end, segueing into the pact with the
alphabet network and its sister studio.
Under the one-year deal, ABC and Touchstone TV will develop series
projects for the actor to star in or cast him in an existing series
prospect.
Elliott also can bring projects to the network; if those projects
are picked up, he will serve as a co-producer.
ABC is taking an early start on the next development season by
signing some marquee TV stars.
Last week, ABC and Touchstone TV inked a development deal with the
star of another veteran CBS series, "Everybody Loves Raymond's" Emmy-
winning Patricia Heaton (HR 1/31).
For the past 10 years, Elliott played pilot-turned-lawyer Lt. Harmon
Rabb on "JAG," Donald Bellisario's venerable drama, which, after a
rocky start on NBC, has enjoyed a long, successful run on CBS and
has spawned the hit spinoff "NCIS."
The role earned the actor a TV Guide Award in 1995.
No decision on the future of "JAG" will be made until late spring
but in anticipation of a possible departure by Elliott, the show's
creator, Bellisario, is introducing a new character, Navy Lt.
Vukovic, a JAG attorney.
Chris Beetem (CBS' "As the World Turns"), who will play Vukovic,
will make his debut as a series regular in an episode set in San
Diego slated to air Feb. 18.
Elliott is repped by manager Bob McGowan of McGowan Management, UTA
and attorney Cliff Gilbert-Lurie.
