Honey Boo Boo

She's coming back, folks.

A day after June Shannon married Sugar Bear, the family was given another reason to celebrate, as TLC announced a return date for Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.

New episodes will kick off on July 17.

The network teases that this eerily popular family will participate in “butter rolling, tap dancing lessons and wrestling events" on the new season, which will also take us behind the scenes of Mama June and Sugar Bear’s wedding.

The series premiered last August as a spin-off of Toddlers & Tiaras and averaged 2.3 millions viewers. Per week. For real.

In Sunday's Honey Boo Boo wedding, it's unclear if Mama June and Sugar Bear actually got legally married, but they certainly made quite an entrance.

The reality show mom eschewed the traditional white gown for a more colorful cap-sleeve camouflage gown with orange trim and ribbons ... we kid not.

Like countless other young Americans, Honey Boo Boo has been selling Girl Scout cookies.

To her hundreds of thousands of fans online, and the chagrin of the Girl Scouts of the USA.

Honey Boo Boo posted the above ad on her Facebook page, which has 701,000 likes.

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo has officially struck it big.

Not because it has set TLC ratings records and made one southern family rich beyond its wildest dreams.

But because it's received the same Taiwanese animation treatment as the Tiger Woods scandal, Jersey Shore and other pop culture mainstays.

Watch now as the folks behind this production company imagine June Shannon as some kind of deranged feline, while money floats through the air and everyone on the show farts. A lot.
