Stephen “tWitch” Boss, known for his work as a DJ on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" as well as competing and then judging on Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance," passed away earlier in December at the age of just 40 due to a reported suicide. Friends and famous fans wasted no time in paying tribute to Boss. Prior to his death, he had a number of projects in the works, with some new reveals and comments coming from HGTV.

HGTV revealed that Stephen Boss and wife Allison Holker were scheduled to start production on a new series about constructing a real-life (and full-size) Malibu Barbie Dream House in Santa Clarita, California, with Deadline reporting that January was intended as the beginning of filming. In comments to the outlet, an HGTV spokesperson said this about the planned project.
