Series
The Dawson's Creek (8 p.m., WB) gang struggles with grief as it buries one of its own. On It's like, you know ... (8:30 p.m., ABC), Arthur and Robbie debate casual sex and Lauren helps Jennifer avenge a bad review. Julia and Perry (guest Olivia d'Abo) get closer (nudge nudge, wink wink) on A Very Special Episode of Party of Five (9 p.m., Fox). And on A Very Special Episode of Law & Order (10 p.m., NBC), Julia Roberts plays a mystery woman who may be involved in a high-society murder and who turns on the charm for a smitten Rey. Rey, of course, is played by Roberts' off-camera boyfriend, Benjamin Bratt. This is also the 200th episode of "Law & Order," which means it's going to be running in syndication forever.
