"Meet the Family: The Sniders"

"Meet The Family: The Sniders" offers a glimpse of suburban home life with a twist: it's told through the eyes of the family of hard rocker Dee Snider. Dee is going back on the road with his band, Twisted Sister, and this time his wife and four children are coming along for the ride. It's time to look at the warm, fuzzy side of being famous. Ultimately every home has its own set of issues, no matter how many platinum records there are on the wall. Celebrities are real people too... and "Meet The Family: The Sniders" is their chance to finally prove it.

"Meet the Family: The Hamiltons"

George Hamilton is world renowned as the impossibly tan, debonair star of films like, Love and First Bite and The Godfather III. He exudes cool. At least until now. It's time to see George lose his legendary composure as he takes on his most difficult role yet. Family man. In "Meet the Family: The Hamiltons," George and several members of his dysfunctional family are thrown together for a 5-day family reunion at sea in the Hawaiian Islands. Sound luxurious? Not for the Hamiltons. These pampered residents of Beverly Hills are used to a certain class if service ... that just doesn't exist on this trip. Their reunion vacation is chock full of outward bound activities designed to bring them closer together. But for six self involved people who rarely spend time together, it's a recipe for disaster. Family reunions are a challenge for everyone. But "Meet the Family: The Hamiltons," gives family reunion a whole new (and entirely bizarre) meaning.

"VH1 News Presents: Secrets Revealed: Love Scenes Exposed"

For as long as there have been motion pictures, filmmakers have tried to capture the human experience of love, romance and especially sex. But while the sex may look hot and steamy on screen, it's not. For stars and directors, it's many tedious hours of choreographed, awkwardly staged encounters in front of dozens of crew members. "VH1 News Presents: Hollywood Secrets Revealed: Love Scenes Exposed" takes an in-depth look at the little tricks of the trade that make sex scenes look real. Along the way, we'll discover the truth about how naked the actors really get; how directors are afraid to direct actors during sex for fear of offending them; and which actors and actresses refuse to disrobe.

"VH1 News Presents: Secrets Revealed: Movie Screw Ups"

Titanic - a tragic love story for the ages, a modern day masterpiece featuring one big-name director, two sizzling stars, eleven Oscars ... and oh yeah, over 200 blunders. Titanic isn't alone. With disappearing props, historical inaccuracies, crew members who think they're invisible and plots holes big enough to sink a ship, many of Hollywood's best-loved films are rife with flubs. "VH1 News Presents: Hollywood Secrets Revealed - Movie Screw Ups," reveals how these notorious bloopers and blunders end up on the big screen. VH1 News will share many outlandish screw ups found in movies like Gladiator, Jurassic Park, Pretty Woman, Ocean's Eleven, Cocktail, Old School, Pearl Harbor, Fast Times at Ridgemont High and many more.

"Driven: Green Day"

Green Day's transformation from social outsiders to music industry & international insiders has been a decade long journey of righteous individualism & sonic supremacy. After an uneasy decade in the international spotlight as platinum selling punks, Green Day has found a way to channel their rebellious spirit while gaining widespread acceptance. Yet, the way they've also figured out a way to accept one another is quite probably their greatest achievement of all.
