Documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock‘s Failure Club launched today on the recently revamped Yahoo! Screen.
Seven people will meet every week over a year to help each other achieve the things they’ve only dreamed of: the stay-at-home mom who wants to start her own business, the market researcher who wants to become a stand-up comic, the 55 year old mother of a teenage daughter, who literally wants to get back on the horse and become an Equestrian, and others.
“This show is my own Failure Club,” said Spurlock. “I tried to get this concept on network television for seven years, but they were all scared to death of a ‘year-long’ format. Yahoo! wants to try things traditional outlets shy away from.”
Each member of the Failure Club will try and some will fail, but the journey will change them forever. People all over the world will be able to follow these courageous people and their quest to achieve their dreams,” Spurlock added. “And, hopefully along the way, they’ll be inspired to chase some dreams of their own.”
