Although PBS swiftly fired Fred Willard from the TV show, Market Warriors, RumorFix has learned exclusively that ABC is keeping him as host of Trust Us With Your Life.
Willard has been put under a microscope by the networks because he was arrested Wednesday night without incident at the Tiki Theater in Hollywood. The comedian, who is somewhere between 72 and 78, is accused of watching an X-rated flick while masturbating.
A source close to the ABC production tells RumorFix the summer series — that premiered on July 10 – has already been taped and will air as planned.
Trust Us With Your Life is an impro-comedy series that features celebrities like David Hasselhoff, Ricky Gervais, Jerry Springer, Florence Henderson, Jack and Kelly Osbourne, Jane Seymour, Serena Williams and Mark Cuban.
Celebrities reminisce about key events in their lives then comedian improve those moments.
UPDATE: July 31 9 p.m. PT: ABC canceled Trust Us With Your Life and has shelved the remaining two episodes — but it could be because of low ratings not his porn scandal.
