By Angel Cohn
After making it through 39 days in the Guatemalan jungle and outwitting, outplaying and outlasting her 17 other competitors, on Sunday night Danni Boatwright was crowned the champion of Survivor: Guatemala. The 30-year-old Kansas City sports-radio announcer won by a landslide over Stephenie, who only received one out of the seven votes cast. TVGuide.com spoke to Danni the day after her win to find out how she managed to make it through without lying too much — and why she didn't bust former NFL player Gary Hogeboom for his deceptive tale.

Julie Brown rehash Madonna's first time with a teenage boy? Bravo's new comedy special, Celebrity Autobiography: In Their Own Words (premiering tonight at 10 pm/ET), offers up those unlikely reenactments and more, as some of today's funniest folk read straight from actual published tell-alls. (One of the spoofed authors, Star Trek's George Takei, is even on hand to hear his tome taken for a riotous ride.)

By Matt Webb Mitovich

So why can't we seem to shake what Daddy Far-From-Dearest said to his son during their Nov. 9 jailhouse heart-to-heart? Is there more to the show's original mystery than meets the eye? Aaron's portrayer, L.A. Law alum Harry Hamlin, talked to TVGuide.com about that, his Dancing wife and showing the funny to Adam Sandler.

The Practice Star Returns to Boston
By Matt Webb Mitovich
Marla Sokoloff, who once manned the phones for Donnell, Young, Dole and Frutt on ABC's The Practice, returns to Beantown to spend Christmas in Boston (premiering tonight at 8 pm/ET on ABC Family). In the romantic comedy, Sokoloff plays Gina, an obituaries editor who labors to dodge her first-ever in-person meet with Seth, a guy she has been e-mailing (and falling for) for years. The catch: Gina and Seth each have been representing themselves with photos of their respective best friends! Always a sucker for good old-fashioned online romance, TVGuide.com grabbed a few with Sokoloff to discuss the power of e-mail, baring it all for Doug Savant and the joy of "twin sister" Jennifer Garner's motherhood.
