Titled Worst Case Scenario, the show is based on the best-selling book series about how to survive everyday disasters, like falling into a frozen lake or being trapped in a falling elevator.
"Worst Case Scenario is a much different take on survival than Man vs. Wild," Clark Bunting, Discovery Channel's president and general manager, said in a statement. "It features Bear in all his physicality using an urban backdrop to set up everyday scenarios viewers could encounter at any time."
