VIEWERS HONOR COSTNER, OTHERS

Kevin Costner, Whoopi Goldberg, Garth Brooks and the feature film "A Few Good Men" were all double winners at the 19th annual People's Choice Awards.

The winners were announced during a CBS-TV telecast Tuesday night. Hosts of the show were actors Jane Seymour and John Ritter.

The program also included a special tribute to "Cheers," the long-running hit comedy that is going off the air at the end of this season.

ABC's "Home improvement" was chosen best TV comedy series. NBC's "L.A. Law" won for best dramatic series.
