REGIS EYES FOOTBALL "MILLIONAIRE"; NHL TEAMS W/NICKELODEON

          On "ET," Bob Goen reported that "Who Wants To Be A
     Millionaire?" host Regis Philbin and Exec Producer Michael
     Davies are planning special theme shows, including a Super
     Bowl show with "questions focusing only on football, airing
     the night before the big game" ("ET," 1/11). 
          A GAS, GAS, GAS: DAILY VARIETY's Paula Bernstein
     reports that Nickelodeon's digital network -- Games and
     Sports for Kids (GAS) -- has formed a "programming
     development partnership" with the NHL.  Nick's GAS and the
     NHL "will be looking at developing original programming
     based on NHL outreach programs."  A half-hour game show
     based on NHL Breakout, the league's hockey tournament and
     festival, is "in development."  The partnership will also
     give GAS "access to NHL game footage and behind-the-scenes
     access to NHL events."  Plans are "under way to produce
     special 'All Access GAS' programming blocks featuring"
     hockey events.  In May, GAS signed similar separate deals
     with the NBA, MLB and MLS (DAILY VARIETY, 1/12).
