Hogan Knows Best season 3 episode 6, titled "Superfan," follows the Hogan family as they deal with a devoted fan who has taken his obsession with the family to extreme levels.
The episode starts with Hulk Hogan and his family preparing to leave for a vacation in Hawaii. However, they receive an unexpected visitor at their door - a man named Nick who claims to be their biggest fan. Nick has a tattoo of Hogan's face on his arm and proceeds to show the family several other pieces of Hogan memorabilia that he has collected.
Although Nick seems harmless at first, Hogan becomes increasingly uncomfortable with his presence as Nick proceeds to follow the family to the airport and even buys a ticket on the same flight. Once on the plane, Nick continues to bother the family by constantly taking pictures and asking for autographs, but Hogan manages to keep his cool and brushes off Nick's advances.
As the family settles in on the beach in Hawaii, they soon discover that Nick has followed them to the island and is staying at the same resort. Nick continues to try and spend time with the family, but Hogan and his wife Linda decide to confront him and tell him that his behavior is unacceptable. Nick is clearly hurt but takes the confrontation well and agrees to leave the family alone for the remainder of their trip.
The rest of the episode focuses on the Hogan family enjoying their vacation in Hawaii, with Hogan reflecting on how overwhelming it can be to have such devoted fans.
Overall, "Superfan" is a lighthearted episode that explores the downsides of celebrity and the importance of setting boundaries. It's an amusing look at the lengths that some fans will go to to show their admiration for their favorite celebrities, while also highlighting the importance of respecting personal space and privacy.
