Jeff Probst Hopes to "Inspire" with New Reality Series
Jeff Probst
Fresh off his Emmy win for reality show host, Survivor's Jeff Probst is developing a new reality series for CBS, EW.com reports.
The dimpled one will host Live Like You're Dying, a Make-A-Wish of sorts, as the series will feature people with terminal illnesses being taken on "the last adventure of their life" before they die.
"The focus of the show is not death," Probst said. "The story we’re going tell is about living. This is a show that is intended to inspire everybody to get the most out of their lives every day."
A pilot has been ordered — filming will take place in January — and should the series be picked up, each episode will profile a new person.
Probst will work on the show with Survivor honcho Mark Burnett and Denise Cramsey of another tug-at-your-heartstrings series — Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
What do you think of the show's premise? Is it morbid or inspirational?
