LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Stephen 'tWitch' Boss and his wife Allison Holker were working on quite a few projects before his untimely death on Tuesday, December 13. The couple reportedly had a handful of new projects they were working on with HGTV
According to Deadline, the couple was planning to start production on a limited series similar to the channel's 'A Very Brady Renovation' from 2019. However, in this case, the couple would oversee the construction of a full-sized Malibu Barbie Dream House. They were also developing their own show called 'Living the Dream' that would help first-time buyers find a home. They had even selected a home for the project, with HGTV finding a place in Santa Clarita to renovate. The filming was scheduled to start from January 2023.

Boss' death has cast doubts on whether the show will continue, as HGTV was thinking about "different scenarios." "We are taking the time to consider different scenarios," an HGTV spokesperson reportedly said, adding, "But for now, our primary focus remains on wishing our best to Allison and the entire Boss family during this difficult time."
The couple had shown a penchant for home remodeling. Boss participated as a guest judge on Holker's HGTV show 'Design Star: Next Gen' in 2021. The couple also made an appearance on 'HGTV House Party'. The team from Buchwald Rep had a number of other initiatives in the works. In addition to starting their own variety/talk show, Boss and Holker also wanted to start a new dance competition program and a game show. In 2021, the couple also started working with 'Dick's Sporting Goods' on a range of sporty and casual apparel.
Boss was found dead from a gunshot wound in Oak Tree Motel in LA, which is a 15-minute walk from his home, about 11.15 am Tuesday, December 13. The DJ died by suicide. The 40-year-old dancer celebrated his wedding anniversary with Holker, 34, three days before the unthinkable happened. Hotel staffers told TMZ that Boss "didn't appear to be in any sort of distress and wasn't visibly upset about anything." The Los Angeles Medical Examiner's autopsy revealed that Boss, who checked into the hotel on Monday, December 12, had killed himself the next day.
