'Expedition Impossible' - New ABC Show with a Team of MA Police Officers


THE COPS
Burnett is the man behind a new summer reality show for ABC dubbed Expedition Impossible, which features 13 teams of three players who will travel across deserts, mountains and rivers in the Kingdom of Morocco.  Each week a new stage of the expedition will be revealed to the competitors, who must find a way to work together to complete the trip. After 10 legs of competition, one team will cross the finish line. Winners each receive $50,000 and a Ford Explorer.
  
Of the 13 teams, one includes three police officers from Massachusetts and another includes three fishermen from Glousester, MA.

The Cops

Occupation: Police Lieutenant

Dani Henderson, Age 34

James Vaglica, Age 49

Robert, Dani and James know that the camaraderie that is shared between police officers is hard to replicate anywhere else in life. The level of trust that is necessary to work together is amplified when you are putting your life in someone else's hands—which is something these three Massachusetts officers do every day. We're pretty sure their survival skills on the streets will be put to the ultimate test during their Moroccan expedition.
