The first new series, Working Class, stars

misanthropic neighbor.
CMT will premiere back to back episodes of the series Jan. 28 beginning at 8 p.m., according to the network.
Following Working Class at 9 p.m. is Meet The In-Laws,
a 30-minute reality series hosted by comedian Pauly Shore in which two
lovebirds agree to live with their fiancée's parents in an attempt to
acclimate to their new family dynamic.
At 9:30 that night the network will premiere the fourth season of My Big Redneck Wedding. The series, hosted by Tom Arnold follows couples participating in over the top, down home wedding celebrations.
