D.W. Moffett is jumping from a luxurious desert oasis to the African veldt, taking the lead role in the CW’s family show “Life is Wild.” Moffett will play a veterinarian who uproots his family from a cushy life in the US to a South African game preserve.

We’re guessing this means things don’t look good for Hidden Palms’ return, but that’s not a great surprise, alas. However, we’re happy we’ll get another chance to bond with D.W. on the CW.

We’re also guessing that after being surrounded by backstabbing and/or lecherous neighbors, hidden motives, mysterious deaths and a pissed-off stepson, D.W. will be thrilled to move to a place where the only thing he has to worry about is being eaten by lions – and pissed-off children. Some things you just can’t escape.

Are you excited to see D.W. take on African wildlife, or would you prefer to see him stay in Palm Springs? Which is more dangerous, Hidden Palms or the African wilderness? Are you more likely to tune into “Life is Wild” now that D.W. is on board? Share all in the comments!
