That kind of enthusiasm has kept the actress busy in the four years since Cheers went off the air. She earned an Emmy for her dramatic work in 1994's TV movie David's Mother. On Oct. 5 she does a comedy turn in Toothless--a fantasy made for ABC's newly revived Wonderful World of Disney--playing a workaholic dentist turned tooth fairy. And at Christmastime, she will co-star in movies with two famous and funny Allens: Woody in Deconstructing Harry and Tim in For Richer or Poorer.

Then there's ABC's Nothing Sacred (Thursdays, 8 p.m. E.T.). The most hyped--and most controversial--of this fall's new shows, it centers on Father Ray, a hip Catholic priest, played by Kevin Anderson. In the pilot episode alone, he suggests that a young woman considering abortion follow her conscience, struggles with his belief in God and barely resists scoring with a married ex-girlfriend.

...dinner celebrating Katharine Graham's 80th birthday [last June]," says BARBARA WALTERS of ABC News, "she and I were teasing about the fact that there didn't seem to be any eligible men.
