Tom Sandoval Faces a Vigorous Challenge After the #Scandoval in ‘Special Forces’ Season 2 Trailer (TV News Roundup)

Tom Sandoval is taking on yet another challenge in the brand new trailer for Season 2 of “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test,” which is set to premiere on Sept. 25.

The trailer gives a peek into some of the vigorous challenges that the stars will embark on throughout their time on “Special Forces,” equipped by a cast of notable names.

Currently filming “Vanderpump Rules” amid controversy that ensued after he cheated on his long-term partner Ariana Madix with their friend and co-star Raquel Leviss (which ended up landing the show two Emmy nominations), Sandoval now joins “Special Forces.” Sandoval will be joined by a slew of impressive (well, depends on which way you look at it) reality stars, actors, athletes and personalities for Season 2 of the Fox’s reality competition show.

The celebrity recruits for Season 2 of “Special Forces” are Sandoval; NFL star Dez Bryant; Bachelor Nation fan-favorite Tyler Cameron; Savannah Chrisley of “Chrisley Knows Best;” Kardashian ex Blac Chyna; “Beverly Hills, 90210” star and ’90s icon, Brian Austin Green; NBA champion Robert Horry; Olympic gold medalist speed skater Erin Jackson; Olympic ski racer Bode Miller; Jack Osbourne of “The Osbournes;” actor Tara Reid; influencer, host and producer Kelly Rizzo, who is the widow of Bob Saget; “Dance Moms” alum and global social media superstar JoJo Siwa; and former star of “The Bachelor,” Nick Viall.

Executive producers are Sophie Leonard, Liam Humphreys and Becky Clarke. Minnow Films produces the series.

FIRST LOOKS

Netflix has released the trailer for Season 2 of “Selling the OC,” the spin-off of the reality series “Selling Sunset,” about an L.A. real estate agency. With a release date of Sept. 8, the trailer promises all the drama and glamour that both shows are known for.

“Selling the OC” focuses on the Oppenheim Group’s Orange County office, where a separate group of real estate agents sell houses with million — and even billion —dollar price tags. The trailer teases their first ever “billion dollar listing” in Cabo San Lucas. “Billion, like with a B?” one agent responds. The group is shown traveling to the tropical destination, a privilege granted to them “before the L.A. office.”

The Orange County group is led by Jason and Brett Oppenheim, the twin brothers who are also in charge at the Sunset Blvd. location. In addition to showing off stunning, sprawling homes and luxury lifestyles, the series features plenty of interpersonal drama between the agents as they juggle their personal lives and work lives.
