truTV has moved the series premiere of HARDCORE PAWN: CHICAGO to Tuesday, Jan. 1, with two back-to-back new episodes at 9:30 p.m. & 10 p.m. ET/PT, 8:30 p.m. & 9 p.m. C.

Hardcore Pawn: Chicago takes viewers behind the scenes at Royal Pawn Shop, "the baddest pawn shop in Chicago." One of the city's largest and oldest establishments in the pawn and gold-buying business, Royal Pawn Shop is owned by Randy and Wayne Cohen, two brothers who don't always see eye to eye...except when it comes to finding the best deals for the business. Hardcore Pawn: Chicago will follow along as these over-the-top siblings as they wheel and deal with just about anyone, from a sweet kindergarten teacher to an intimidating tough guy.

Tuesday, Jan. 1, at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT - "Something's Missing" - TV-14-DLSV
When an $80,000 ring goes missing, Randy and Wayne launch a storewide search and a game of blame. Whoever finds the ring could save the day, but if they come up empty it could cost the brothers their business. Then, an angry customer goes over Elyse's head when she doesn't get what she wants. And later, when a man brings in signed astronaut photos, Hymie launches a mission to determine their authenticity.

Tuesday, Jan. 1, at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT - " The Competition" - TV-14-DLSV
Randy and Wayne's sibling rivalry kicks into high gear when they challenge each other to a sales competition. Who will prove to be the 'King of Royal Pawn,' and who will suffer utter humiliation? Then one customer serenades Nate, while another threatens violence.
