Three Wishes is a reality television show that premiered on NBC on September 23, 2005 to December 9, 2005.
It featured contemporary Christian musician Amy Grant as she traveled around the country fulfilling the big wishes and dreams of some needy small-town residents.
During this time, a free concert and carnival are held at which Amy Grant (and often another artist, such as Hootie and the Blowfish) performs.
Casting is held well in advance of taking wishes in order to determine suitability for filming at the location.
[1] The series ended after ten episodes due to disappointing ratings.
