Sarah Palin, Mark Burnett Pitching TV Docudrama

By PopEater Staff Posted Mar 4th 2010 09:22AM

Soon, millions of Americans may be able to see Alaska (and presumably Russia) from their TV screens.

That's because, according to an exclusive report from EW.com, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is teaming with Mark Burnett ('Survivor') to shop a new TV docudrama about the Last Frontier State.

Sources claim the show would have a 'Planet Earth'-style feel to it, and would feature Palin and her family on-camera. According to the report, Palin and Burnett have already met with ABC, CBS and Fox, and plan to sit down with NBC sometime today.

That Palin is interested in a show of this capacity should come as little surprise. Since stepping down from her governorship last summer, she's stayed relatively active on the small screen, including high-profile interviews on 'Oprah' and, more recently, 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno.' In January, she booked an exclusive, multi-year deal with FOX News to offer political commentary on a variety of its shows. She made her official FOX News debut a few days later on the 'Bill O'Reilly Show.'

As for which newspapers Palin turned to today when news about her show broke, we'll assume she read all of them.

Sarah Palin is definately not a moron ( as opposed to you, who can't even spell it: 'Moran"...LOL)

Linda, where did you go to school? Or did you? You certainly weren't paying attention in English class if you did! And you call Sarah Palin a moron? Pity!

How low is the Republicon party bottom-fishing to find retards like Palin. There is of course Bachmann and Blackburn too that are part of the brain dead party.
These dopes make George Dumbya look like Shakespeare.

Sarah Palin is like a bad penny-she just keeps turning up. And she just won't stop insinuating herself in so many situations.

By Brent R Jones

Sarah Palin is already a reality show. Or should I say un-reality show?

Mrs. WA-silliness needs to stay in WA-sillia and make moose stew for the 'former' first dude.

While the moose stew is simmering on the stove, Mrs. WA-silliness can scrape the hide of a wolf to make a swaddling cloth for her special needs child, while talking to her youngest daughters about NOT doing a "Bristol" before they are married.

Mrs. WA-silliness needs to stay in WA-sillia and keep watch out her kitchen window while simmer moose stew.

LOL..Mik's, Well said..

By Bonbon

Whats a moran?....LOL...dodo....

Sarah Palin is already a reality show. Or should I say un-reality show?..........................What are you smokin? do you see whose running this country.......good grief!!!

By SkyBlue

Bonbon, did you see who was running the country during the previous administration? Do you see the critters who would be in office now, if McCain had won?

So, this is a docudrama about Alaska, featuring that typical, everyday Alaskan family, the Palins? Huh? What a lousy idea for a show. A docudrama about Alaska could be interesting, but tacking Sarah and her family of Wasillabillies onto it just stinks.

Let's hope Mrs. WA-silliness will stay in WA-sillia with her WA-sillinbillies.

They can cook moose stew, over an open "far" (fire) , while skinnin' coyotes they shot from thar hellikopter.
