Martha Stewart Preps New Show with Mark Burnett

NEW YORK: Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (MSLO) has greenlit a new eight-episode unscripted series, called Help Me, Martha!, which is being produced in association with Mark Burnett.

The show is among the opportunities MSLO is pitching to advertisers at its Upfront in New York. The hour-long program will feature Martha Stewart as well as a number of other home and lifestyle experts solving some of life’s most difficult challenges in and around the home, at work or at play. The episodes will focus on everything from planning last-minute parties and home transformations to averting wedding disasters. Burnett has previously worked with Stewart on The Martha Stewart Show and The Apprentice: Martha Stewart.

"Working with Martha on this new series was a natural evolution from our experience with The Martha Stewart Show," said Burnett. "It was clear to us that if we were going to go into people’s homes and transform their lives that we had to do it with the help of experts who are the best in the business. And the best resource for that kind of talent is definitely Martha Stewart and the members of the MSLO family."
