Sarah Palin's New Reality Show About Todd Palin Not Getting Any Buyers

Sarah Palin's New Reality Show About Todd Palin Not Getting Any Buyers

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/12/sarah-palins-new-reality-_n_1144360.html?ref=entertainment

Sarah Palin wants to produce a TV show about her husband's life as a snowmobiler, but so far, networks have been cold to the idea.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Palin and producer Mark Burnett are pitching a show that would turn the camera on Todd Palin's winning career on the circuit, but the price tag has driven bidders away. Discovery Networks, the company that ran her last show on TLC, paid over $1 million an episode for "Sarah Palin's Alaska," which ran in 2010.

Now, Discovery is unwilling to pay that price, as is A&E Networks. "Sarah Palin's Alaska" debuted to massive ratings, with network record audience of five million, but fell precipitously, including a 40% drop from its first to second episode

I love many of the shows on A&E including Storage Wars, Hoarders and Intervention. If that channel put Sarah Palin on their network I would quit watching any show on A&E

It'll never be aired. She's reportedly returning to her house in Arizona and will enroll in cosmetology school. Upon graduation she hopes to return to Hollywood as "cosmetologist to the stars."

She could have sex live on FOX Noise and nobody would be interested except for the wingnuts that watch Hannity and O'Reilly.
