Nature Boy (Plus a Starry One)

Bear Grylls is back.

The former Discovery Channel star survivalist is playing his Wild game once again, and this time he won’t  out on cable.

Nah, this Brit has gone network.

NBC has commissioned a six-episode summer season of Running Wild with Bear Grylls, featuring real, live actual...celebrities!

Yes, folks like Zac Efron, Ben Stiller, Channing Tatum, and the Today show’s Tamron Hall, all of whom will be part of these six hours of TV and will be shown surviving sans their usual accoutrements on remote and wild locations in the United States and around the globe.

Think Surviving With the Stars.

Running Wild with Bear Grylls will premiere on July 28.
