Run in an unscripted format, “Three Wishes” will follow the efforts of Grant and her team – comprised of Carpenter Carter Oosterhouse ("Trading Spaces"), contractor Eric Stromer ("Clean Sweep") and architect Amanda Miller ("Knock First") – as they attempt to make everyday people’s dreams come true, one town at a time.

“Wishes” range from paying tribute to an unsung hero to helping a hopeless family in the grip of a member’s life-threatening medical crisis, with other examples including living out a mind-blowing sports fantasy, helping to save a dedicated teacher’s job, keeping a factory that provides jobs open as it teeters on the brink of closing down – and even saving a desperate local economy on the verge of slipping into debt.

Said Grant: “When I heard about this show, I was extremely moved by NBC and the production company’s concept to provide incredibly positive changes in the lives of different people. Seeing the initial prep work the producers had done for the pilot episode gave me reason to look at my own life – and remind myself, once again, to never underestimate the impact that one life can have on another.”

“Three Wishes” is executive produced by Andrew Glassman and Jason Raff (NBC’s “Average Joe” seasons 1-4) in cooperation with NBC Universal Television Studio.
