Season four is already in production, slated for a premiere in April. The series, produced by Cineflix Media, will follow Kourounis as he travels to some of the most remote places on Earth. This season, he will share how the changing environment is directly impacting weather calamities.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tPivot also greenlit a new series produced by MME, Filmpool USA and all3media America, <em>Secret Lives of Americans<\/em>. Slated for a summer launch, the show will feature individuals who are exposing powerful secrets to the most influential people in their lives. The docuseries will be primarily shot by the subjects themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThree new projects are in development for Pivot. <em>Shrink <\/em>(working title) is a half-hour comedy based on the New York Television Festival award-winning selection (for Best Comedy Pilot and the Critics&rsquo; Choice Award) developed by Ted Tremper and Tim Baltz. The series features a recent medical-school graduate who fails to match with a residency program and uses his temporary medical license, Craigslist and his parents&#039; garage to perform free therapy in hopes of becoming a real doctor.<br \/>\n\tTwo new as-yet-untitled unscripted projects are also in the works. The first, a half-hour news magazine, hails from documentary filmmaker Brian Knappenberger. The series will put a fresh spin on the traditional news magazine format by spotlighting the untold stories of people who defend human rights and call out institutional failures. Luminant Media is producing. The next untitled project is from former NFL player Chris Kluwe. T Group Productions is on board the half-hour docuseries, in which Kluwe takes viewers into the space where sports and society intersect.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: Pivot has revealed details of three new productions in development for the network, which has also greenlit the docuseries Secret Lives of Americans and renewed Angry Planet.
