Undercover Boss Returning To CBS; Drew Carey Hosting 'Reimagined Version' Of The Show

The network described the new version as a reboot that will retain the core premise of senior executives working incognito within their own companies, while adding updated production elements. In the same press release, CBS confirmed the greenlighting of two additional unscripted projects, 'Stacks Of Cash' and '24 Hour Millionaire,' expanding its reality‑program lineup. The rollout was covered simultaneously by several entertainment trade outlets. TV Insider published a detailed guide titled ‘Undercover’ Sets Return With Drew Carey as Host, outlining the show's premise and scheduling expectations.

Yahoo.com reported that CBS officially revived one of its most popular TV shows with Drew Carey and added two more shows to its slate. Deadline.com highlighted the network’s order of the 'Undercover Boss' reboot alongside the new series 'Stacks Of Cash' and '24 Hour Millionaire.' Variety and TVLine each ran brief notices confirming the return of 'Undercover Boss' with Carey as host, reinforcing the uniform messaging across the media circuit. The original 'Undercover Boss' aired for multiple seasons and became known for exposing workplace dynamics by placing CEOs in frontline roles, a format that resonated with both audiences and advertisers. CBS’s decision to revive the series taps into that legacy while leveraging Carey’s long‑standing presence as a game‑show host, most notably on 'The Price Is Right.' The addition of 'Stacks Of Cash' and '24 Hour Millionaire' signals a broader strategy to bolster unscripted programming, a genre that has historically delivered strong ratings for broadcast networks.

Future coverage will likely focus on the premiere dates, episode counts, and time‑slot assignments for the revived 'Undercover Boss' and its companion series. Monitoring the same outlets will be essential for updates on casting, format tweaks, and rollout timelines.
