What is Todd and Julie Chrisley’s new reality show? When, how to watch Chrisleys series

While Todd and Julie serve prison time for bank fraud and tax evasion, back at home, Savannah has custody of her younger sister and brother, Chloe and Grayson. She’s also “been fighting tirelessly for a presidential pardon to free her parents.”

Because of course she has, and because with this president, pardoning a fellow reality-TV star is not above the office. Savannah Chrisley spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention.

Meanwhile Chase is “addressing some life struggles” (no shit again) while simultaneously “building his new business and navigating his relationship with girlfriend Jodi.” Welcome to the family, Jodi.

Both Savannah Chrisley and Chase Chrisley are executive producers on the new series. Phone calls with mom and dad in the pen will be part of the show, a person with knowledge of production tells The Hollywood Reporter.

Julie Chrisley is expected to be released from prison in 2028, with Todd’s expected release is 2032.

The Lifetime announcement goes on to say that “for the first time,” the Chrisleys are “exposing the raw truth of their lives — past and present.”

“This series delivers an unfiltered, deeply personal look at their journey and introduces the real Chrisleys as they navigate this new chapter,” it continues. The press release left out the part about monetizing their family pain.

Bunim/Murray is part of Banijay Americas; Julie Pizzi, Farnaz Farjam, Jesse Daniels and Rit Saraswat executive producer the new series with the older Chrisley siblings. Nicole Blais is co-executive producer; Brie Miranda Bryant and Nicole Vogel executive produce for Lifetime.

Todd and Julie Chrisley are back to reality TV. 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 and “Chrisley Knows Best” co-star Savannah Chrisley lobbied to get them released. Her plea reached the highest office in the land, 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.

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

Here’s what we know about “The Chrisleys: Back to Reality” reality TV series, starring Todd and Julie Chrisley, and when to watch it.

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

The release continues: “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 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.
