CMT Announces Four New Series

'Chainsaw Gang', 'Redneck Intervention', 'Full Metal Racket', 'Rock Raiders' in Production

CMT has commenced production on four new series: Chainsaw Gang, Redneck Intervention, Full Metal Racket and Rock Raiders. As previously announced, Trinity 911 and the network's first animated series Bounty Hunters are also in production.

The series descriptions are as follows:

Redneck Intervention (premieres Sept. 15) -- Each week a former redneck is confronted by friends and family members that believe he or she should return to their country roots, in this one-hour, eight-episode reality series.

Chainsaw Gang (fall premiere to be determined) -- Stacy Poitras leads a ragtag bunch of the country's premiere chainsaw artists who battle blades breaking, chainsaws bursting into flames and agitating each other as they manage to deliver incredible works of art -- and a really good time.

Full Metal Racket (working title, premieres 2013) -- This series follows three generations of the Sumner family who run Knob Creek Gun Range, their family-owned business in Knob Creek, Ky. It's up to the Sumner family to keep things running smoothly as customers use, try out and even purchase and sell weapons across a broad spectrum of firearms -- from a cannon to a machine gun. They can even blow up whatever they bring to the range.

Rock Raiders (working title, premieres 2013) -- One man's trash is two guys' treasures. The collectors Robert Reynolds and Stephen Shutts travel across the U.S. in search of music history's most-treasured finds, scouring local flea markets and garage sales to discover personal -- and sometimes valuable -- music memorabilia. From finding a vintage jukebox that once belonged to Johnny Cash, to potential items from Elvis Presley, Hank Williams Jr., and more, each episode embarks on a fun, lighthearted and often unexpected quest.

Trinity 911 (working title, fall premiere to be determined) -- The larger-than-life humor of one small-town Texas police force will come to TV in this reality series. Each half-hour episode of the workplace reality series will follow the on-and off-duty antics of the most colorful police department in Texas. The officers in tiny Trinity (population 2,656) may not have the world's highest crime rate to contend with, but keeping their small town safe from danger is a full-time job for this fun-loving crew.

Bounty Hunters (premieres 2013) -- Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall, Larry the Cable Guy and Lisa Lampanelli together serve as the voices for CMT's first animated series, a hilarious tale about three friends and their two-bit bounty hunting business.
