Season three of CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST, airing Tuesday nights at 9/8c, will premiere new episodes through July 21 following the adventures and misadventures of the wildly entertaining and endearing Chrisley bunch. Tomorrow night (Tuesday, June 9 beginning at 9/8c) will feature two new back-to-back episodes including, "Getting Testy," when Savannah asks permission from Todd to go to college a year early. This question prompts Todd to wage an all-out family competition to keep his daughter home as long as possible and son Chase pays the ultimate price when Todd fills in as his coach for standardized testing. Then at 9:30/8:30c, "My Chrisley Valentine" airs and Todd learns Chase is dating several girls on Valentine's Day. Todd recruits his daughter, Savannah, to help teach her brother a lesson about respecting women, leaving Chase the victim of a catfish prank that only Todd could dream up!
