Teresa Giudice: Release Me, Then Film Me

Teresa Giudice was JUST RELEASED FROM PRISON, 2 days before Xmas, and she'll be back in front of cameras in no time ... TMZ has learned.

We're told Bravo is itching to film her newfound freedom. The network had a lot of success with the 3-part series that aired in October, "The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Teresa Checks In" and Teresa wasn't even on camera ... she just phoned it in from the big house.

Cameras were prohibited from filming Teresa walking out of prison, but the plan is to have them rolling as she gets back into her day-to-day routine with her 4 daughters, and husband Joe.

The network isn't sure whether to use the footage in the new season of 'RHONJ' or for a special ... it looks like they're leaning toward the latter.

Crime pays.
