Toccara and Jackee Smackdown, Hogans Go to Court, and Surreal Double Vision

NEW YORK, Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Welcome to your weekly guide to new episodes of "The Surreal Life," "Hogan Knows Best," and "Celebrity Fit Club."

"The Surreal Life" -- The worlds of seven pop culture originals collide as they learn to live too close for comfort in a plush Hollywood mansion.

Episode #506: "Vegas Dead Ringers" Sunday 08/21 @ 9PM*

Today the cast learns they're taking an overnight trip to the City Of Sin! Omarosa talks from the moment the rock star bus pulls away from the Surreal Life Mansion until the celebs arrive at The Strip, but they are disappointed when they're driven right past the casinos. Then they learn they'll be playing a high-stakes game of softball! The winners are treated to a special "V.I.P. package" that includes a stay at The Palms, in-room massages, and $5000 for gambling. But our heroes aren't playing against just any team -- they're squaring off against celebrity look-alikes! It's Jose Canseco vs. Jose Canseco! And later, Janice makes a move on Jose ... wait ... which Jose?

"Hogan Knows Best" -- VH1 introduces America's new first family in this new series. Each half-hour episode of the series opens the doors to the Hogan family home and provides a new definition of the 'traditional' family.

Episode #106: "Hogan vs. City Hall" Sunday 08/21 @ 9:30PM

The Hogan family is at war with the town of Bellaire, Florida over the number of pets they have. The onetime menagerie of more than a dozen has been whittled down to five animals plus a permitted rooster after their next-door neighbor complained to the town. But Bellaire officials are playing hardball: They send the Hogans a letter saying the family is in violation of the town code, and a hearing is scheduled. After another heated confrontation between Linda and the neighbor's gardener, they go to the hearing. Will the Hogans have to give up their precious pets? Or will the family stand strong on principle?

"Celebrity Fit Club" -- Eight overweight stars are divided into two teams and challenged to get fit and lose weight over a 14 week period. Hosted by Ant.

Episode #206: Sunday 08/21 @ 10:00PM*

JACKEE AND TOCCARA FACE OFF FOR THE FIRST TIME AS RIVALS ON OPPOSING TEAMS IN THE FLYING TRAPEZE FIT CLUB CHALLENGE -- In their first fit camp since the teams traded Gary Busey for Toccara, the celebs get circus training on the flying trapeze, where some soar and others struggle. Later, in the weigh-in ceremony, Jackee butts heads with the panel when she thinks they are being more demanding of her than they are of Toccara, but it's Wendy who gets the full tough love treatment from the experts when they replay the excuses she's made throughout the series-and she doesn't like what she sees.
