NFL star Kurt Warner will help others find their ‘Moment’ on USA
Written on January 25, 2012 by Dylan Ferguson
NFL great Kurt Warner proved he can throw a football in the Super Bowl, but can he draw a TV audience?
The USA Network is banking on it, and has drafted Warner to host “The Moment,” a new, nine-episode reality series in which participants get a second chance to go back and take a different direction in life.
“Everyone has a ‘what-if’ moment in their life — a decision or path they could have taken — but rarely do they get a second chance to explore what they could have been,” the show’s executive producers, Charlie Ebersol and Justin Hochberg, said in a statement. “We created a format that taps into this emotion, and proved so powerful that it attracted Kurt Warner — the guy who got his own second chance — to his first reality hosting gig.”
Warner does have a pretty convincing feel-good story.
He went from an out-of-work player bagging groceries to quarterback of the St. Louis Rams and MVP of Super Bowl XXXIV within a stretch of 18 months.
In “The Moment, ” on each episode someone who was nominated by a loved one is surprised by Warner and given a chance to start a new career, whatever it may be.
In the end, the participant has to decide whether to keep the new job or return to what they were doing before Warner came along.
“The Moment” is expected to start during the third quarter of 2012.
