Todd and Julie Chrisley’s shocking TV comeback is officially happening—and the drama is unreal!

 

Aug. 28, 2025, 5:04 a.m. CT

Todd and Julie Chrisley are officially coming back to reality TV next week. Literally.

Their new show, “Chrisleys: Back to Reality,” follows Todd and Julie Chrisley as they are pardoned by President Donald Trump, released from their respective prisons in Florida and Kentucky, and a return home.

In 2022, the Chrisleys were convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion, turning themselves in to prison in January 2023. Their daughter, “Chrisley Knows Best” co-star Savannah Chrisley, lobbied for her parents’ release. Her plea reached the Oval Office, and in May 2025, Trump granted the “According to Chrisley” stars a full pardon.

The family appeared on “My View with Lara Trump” on Fox News Channel weeks after their release, where they confirmed a return to the small screen: “We’re coming back to television,” Todd Chrisley told Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law.

“It’s amazing that those that walked away from you are the first ones knocking at the door again. So we’re coming back to television, and I think that we’re heading back home,” Todd Chrisley said.

“We’re heading back to South Carolina, where we came from, and we’re going to open a hotel there… We’re going to create a show around it, and we’re going to hopefully be grandparents at some point.”

But for those who don’t want to wait until next week to see the Chrisleys return to the screen, there are a couple of post-prison interviews already out that you can stream, including an ABC News Studios “Life After Lockup” special. And the original “Chrisley Knows Best” show is also available to stream.

The Chrisleys actually have had a myriad of shows, from a reality show following the lives of their children, to a talk-variety show and even a cooking show.

Here’s what we know about “The Chrisleys: Back to Reality” reality TV series, when it premieres and how to stream the other Chrisley shows in the meantime.

“The Chrisleys: Back to Reality” reality TV series begins during the wake of the “family’s controversy and upheaval,” a news release said, with Todd and Julie Chrisley in federal prison and follows the family as their parents are eventually pardoned by Donald Trump, released from prison in Florida and Kentucky, and their return home to Tennessee.

“The Chrisleys: Back to Reality” show will premiere as a two-night event at 7 p.m. CT/8 p.m. ET on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 1, and Tuesday, Sept. 2, on Lifetime. The remaining episodes will air back-to-back at 7 p.m. CT/8 p.m. ET Tuesdays, beginning on Sept. 9, and ending with the finale on Sept. 16.

A news release from Lifetime says that the series shows a “side of the Chrisleys that has never been seen before with exclusive access to the family — Julie and Todd from prison and upon their release, Savannah, Chase, Grayson, Chloe, Nanny Faye, and for the first time, Julie’s parents Harvey and Pam.”

“The new series exposes the raw truth of the Chrisley’s lives — past and present — and the reality is far different from what audiences have seen before,” the release says.

“The family faces a critical point that will either make their bond stronger or leave it shattered forever. This series delivers an unfiltered, deeply personal look at their journey and introduces the real Chrisleys as they navigate this new chapter.”

The producers behind “The Challenge” and “Vanderpump Villa” produced “Chrisleys: Back to Reality.” Savannah Chrisley and Chase Chrisley serve as executive producers.

Savannah Chrisley is known for her appearances in “The Masked Singer,” “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test” and “Sharknado: The 4th Awakens.” Originally from Atlanta, Georgia, the reality TV star lives in Tennessee, where, in addition to podcasting, she works in real estate.

She won Miss Tennessee Teen USA in 2016 and placed in the Top 15 at Miss Teen USA 2016. During her appearance on “The Masked Singer” on Fox, she was revealed as the “Afghan Hound” on the “Wizard of US” night.

She starred with her siblings, parents and niece on “Chrisley Knows Best,” which followed the family’s life in Atlanta and later Nashville, Tennessee, for 10 seasons from 2014 through 2023.

“Growing Up Chrisley,” a spin-off featuring the couple’s adult children, Chase and Savannah Chrisley, went on for four seasons after its 2019 premiere.

For years, Todd and Julie Chrisley portrayed themselves as real estate tycoons on the USA Network series “Chrisley Knows Best,” which documented the Chrisleys’ lavish lifestyle in Atlanta and Nashville. The show drew in more than 2 million viewers by its eighth season and inspired spinoffs such as “Growing Up Chrisley” and “According to Chrisley.”

However, their image as savvy real estate tycoons was sullied in June 2022, when the pair was found guilty of tax evasion and defrauding community banks out of more than $30 million in fraudulent loans, which funded their luxurious lifestyle. Julie Chrisley was additionally convicted of obstruction of justice and wire fraud.

On May 28, 2025, billionaire Donald Trump, a former reality TV star and 45th and 47th U.S. president, issued a full pardon for Todd and Julie Chrisley. The couple exited their respective prisons the next day.

Todd Chrisley had originally received a 12-year sentence, with seven years for Julie Chrisley. Todd Chrisley was released from a federal prison in Pensacola, and Julie Chrisley was released an hour later from federal custody in Lexington, Kentucky.

Lara Trump, who is married to Donald Trump’s second-oldest son, Eric Trump, hosts “My View with Lara Trump” Saturdays at 9 p.m. ET on Fox News Channel, which you can get through live TV services like Hulu+ Live TV, YouTube TV and Fubo.

In June, the Chrisleys were featured in another post-prison interview, on ABC News Studios’ “IMPACT x Nightline” 100th episode and season three finale of “Life After Lockup.”
