CMT picked up I Love Kellie Pickler, which is the show's working title, as well as Gainesville.

I Love Kellie Pickler will feature the successful country singer and her husband Kyle Jacobs as they navigate life together as complete opposites. Pickler quickly went from a small-town lifestyle to stardom with the help of Idol's fifth season back in 2005 and Dancing with the Stars' sixteenth edition in 2013 boosting her career.

Pickler -- known for her quirky personality, wit and Southern charm -- finished in sixth place on American Idol and then went on to win her Dancing with the Stars season with pro partner Derek Hough.

I Love Kellie Pickler is being produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions with Pickler, Jacobs, Ryan Seacrest, Eugene Young, Rabih Gholam, Jayson Dinsmore, and Morgan Selzer serving as executive producers.

Gainesville will chronicle a tight-knit group of friends in small town Florida as they attempt to transition into adulthood. The show is being produced by Wheels Off Entertainment with Yoav Attias, Nicholas Burnett, Daniel Levin, Alan Deutsch, Jayson Dinsmore, Lewis Bogach, and John Miller-Monzon serving as executive producers.

The two series are set to premiere this spring.
