In the show, Seacrest and guest celebrities would visit the homes of ordinary people who have done something special and give them a prize such as cash or a new car. Some would meet their celebrity crushes, or a random game would take place in their front yard or on their street. Seacrest said: "We've tailored all of our responses to hopefully put a smile on people's faces and change their life a little bit. The fun thing about it, for me, is that this is a live show, so we don't have an idea of what's gonna happen."[2]
On July 30, 2015, Fox canceled the show after two episodes due to low ratings.[3]
