TRICK MY TRUCK (episode 24) - SEASON FINALE!
When Ben Brownlow, from Palestine, Texas, was a kid growing up in Texas, he dreamed of one day having his own trucking company with his younger brother, Brad. While working odd jobs to meet that dream, Brad was killed in an oil rig explosion and Ben was devastated to lose his best friend. Ironically, as Ben was the beneficiary on Brad’s life insurance, he now had enough money to buy a truck and start living out his childhood dream. Ben’s feelings toward his truck are bittersweet and it’s fallen into much disrepair. Watch, as the Mafia step in and build him a truck that re-connects him to his brother and his Texas roots. Premieres Friday, March 23 at 8:30 p.m., ET/PT


TRICK MY TRUCK (episode 23) - PREMIERE!
Harry Joe Hooper, from Whitwell, Tenn., has lived a long and full life. He served as a trucker in the Korean War and then worked as his county’s undertaker for 55 years. Now that he’s retired, he’s starting another chapter of his life: volunteering his time as a truck driver again. With his wife by his side, the two of them drive from city to city with a replica of the Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial. When most retirees are getting some well-deserved rest and relaxation, the Hooper’s are bringing an important piece of history to people that would otherwise never get a chance to see it. The Chrome Shop Mafia wants these traveling do-gooders to have a truck that truly represents the service they provide to our country. Premieres Friday, March 23 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT


COUNTRY FRIED HOME VIDEOS (episode 8) - PREMIERE!
What makes a home video “country fried”? It could be a belly flopping contest in a mud puddle; shot gun bowling in the backyard; or even the age old favorite, bobbing for trout. Comedian Bill Engvall hosts the second season of COUNTRY FRIED HOME VIDEOS, the series that shows what everyday Americans do for fun and 15 seconds of fame. Each half-hour episode has one video awarded with Engvall’s infamous “Here’s Your Sign” cash prize at the end of each show. Premieres Friday, March 23 at 9:00 p.m., ET/PT
