Daddy's Dyin': CBS' Got 'The Will' Are you an older Zap2it reader confused as to which family member most deserves your collection of WWII General commemorative plates and Hummel figurines? Mike Fleiss and CBS may have just the reality show to solve your problems.Fleiss ("The Bachelor," "The Bachelorette") is set to begin casting on "The Will," a new unscripted series that he describes as "reality TV meets 'Dynasty.'"Applications are available at www.cbs.com and casting associates are looking for a head of household with substantial holdings who doesn't necessarily like any of their relatives enough to easily determine a proper heir.That head of household will become The Benefactor and will put his friends and relatives through the usual reality paces to find the personal arbitrarily worthy of that fortune. In all likelihood, The Benefactor will not be executed at the end of the show, suggesting that any rewards will likely be somewhat delayed. "The Will" promises physical and mental challenges and requires that, "in the spirit of good-natured competition, the charismatic clan must have a sense of adventure and a substantial sense of humor."This is at least the second or third incarnation for "The Will," which was first picked up by ABC in the fall of 2002. The show's original website is still up at www.thewilltv.com, though it's unclear if the promised $10,000 bounty for finding the proper family to prostitute themselves on national television is still available.
