There will also be sneak peeks of interviews with literary icon Margaret Atwood, country music legend Dolly Parton and pro skateboard­er Tony Hawk. Monday’s premiere features a live fan event headlined by superstar country duo Florida Georgia Line. (CTV)

Almost immediatel­y she gets sucked back into unwanted drama with her dysfunctio­nal family, as well as unfinished business with her high school beau (Brock O’Hurn). (TLC)
