NBC has announced that “Three Wishes,” starring five-time GRAMMY Award-winning recording artist Amy Grant, has been added to the network’s new fall season and will air on Fridays from 8:00 PM – 9:00 PM (EST).

The hour-long series, which is totally unscripted, features Grant as she leads a team of experts to "grant" wishes to help make the hopes and dreams of deserving people come true. Viewers will follow the deeply personal and heartwarming stories as Grant and her team transform these hopes into a life-changing reality.

The range of wishes goes from paying tribute to an unsung hero to helping a family during the crisis of a loved one's life-threatening medical illness. Additional "wish" examples include: reunions with long-lost relatives; living out a sports fantasy, and helping to save a dedicated teacher's job.

Carpenter Carter Oosterhouse ("Trading Spaces"), contractor Eric Stromer ("Clean Sweep") and architect Amanda Miller ("Knock First") make up Grant's team of experts. Andrew Glassman (NBC's "Average Joe 1-4") and Jason Raff (NBC's "Average Joe 1-4") are the executive producers, and Tony Croll (NBC's "Average Joe") is the director of this pilot from Glassman Media and NBC Universal Television Studio. “Three Wishes” is one of six new series to air in September on NBC.
