REAPPEARING: Despite having his TV show canceled because he likes heavy-metal, Pat Boone will still the host a Christian film and TV awards program. "In white bucks or black leather, Pat Boone is still the same guy underneath," said the chairman of the Christian Film and Television Commission.

FAMILY FEUDING: The Family Channel airs a controversial movie called The Ditchdigger's Daughters Sunday night that tells the story of how six girls reacted to their overbearing father.
