Chrisley Family’s New Docuseries: Chase Promises a ‘Different’ Experience

Chase Chrisley is offering fans a fresh glimpse into what to expect from his family’s upcoming docuseries following his parents’ presidential pardon.

“It’s distinctly different from Chrisley Knows Best. As anyone might know, Chrisley Knows Best was like a family sitcom,” Chase shared with People in an interview released on Tuesday, July 1. “This is just raw footage, raw. I’m often thinking, ‘Can we go back to Chrisley Knows Best?’ Yeah, ‘Let’s stick to laughing.’”

Since the end of the family’s original reality series, Chrisley Knows Best, in March 2023, fans have missed seeing Todd Chrisley and his wife, Julie Chrisley, share their family moments with kids, Chase, Savannah, and Grayson Chrisley. (The couple also has an adopted daughter, Chloe, and Todd has two older children from a previous relationship.)

In May, it was announced that Lifetime is collaborating with the Chrisley family on a new docuseries tentatively titled The Untitled Chrisleys Project, following Todd and Julie’s arrest and subsequent conviction for bank fraud and tax evasion — charges the couple continues to deny.

“The Chrisleys don’t know best anymore,” Lifetime remarked while teasing the upcoming series. “But they’re striving to support each other.”

After President Donald Trump granted full pardons to the couple in May, the docuseries will now encompass the couple’s return home and their efforts to create a new “normal” after their incarceration.

“We were actually nearing the end of filming,” he explained. “We’re still capturing some moments. I feel like for such a long time on Chrisley Knows Best, I was playing a role. Savannah was playing a role. We all were. Now, we’re able to be open and vulnerable, sharing both the highs and the lows, and no matter how many times we get knocked down, we’re going to rise again.”

With his parents now free and ready to engage in the new docuseries, Chase hints that the show will adopt a completely new tone, adding that his father came out “guns blazing.”

“He’s prepared for anyone and everyone,” he told the publication. “Anyone familiar with my dad knows that things have shifted.”

As the family adjusts to having their matriarch and patriarch back home and back in front of the cameras, Chase emphasizes that the pardon — and his parents’ participation in the forthcoming series — is truly a blessing.

“It’s a remarkable adjustment, obviously,” he said. “Throughout the entire process, even after the conviction, and even after they left, I felt deep down that this is not it. This is not the conclusion. I felt like I was carrying that weight, just waiting, waiting, waiting for something to change.”
