'Undercover Boss' renewed by CBS

CBS has renewed reality series Undercover Boss for a second season.

The show, which follows highly paid executives working incognito to find out how their companies really work, is still airing its five-part run.

"We are thrilled with the overwhelming response to the series and how audiences seem to connect to it on several levels," the network's vice president Jennifer Bresnan announced today.

"The wish fulfilment of seeing the top boss perform jobs of the rank and file is universal, and the employees' stories discovered at each company are often relatable and inspirational."
