FX Network and Esquire magazine developing 'What It Feels Like' reality program

Variety reports that basic cable network FX is developing a reality program based on Esquire magazine's annual "What It Feels Like" editorial feature. The magazine series, which debuted in Esquire last year, features first-person accounts of experiences such as being bitten by a shark or surviving an avalanche.


The FX project could develop into a series or special and joins a "What It Feels Like" book that is scheduled to be published next fall by Three Rivers Press. Esquire is published by Hearst Magazines.
