The ratings are in, and it looks like “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” is a hit. TLC says nearly 5 million total viewers tuned in to the premiere of the series.

In case you haven’t seen our previous coverage, “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” is a documentary series from producer Mark Burnett and starring former Alaska governor and Fox News Channel contributor Sarah Palin.

TLC says 4.96 million total viewers tuned in, including 1.8 million adults 25-54, and 1.6 million adults 18-49, two of the network’s key demos. That is the best premiere in network history with regards to total viewers, beating the 2003 debut of “What Not to Wear.”

I’m surprised that the word “unexpected” was not in the title...

Just saw this posted at 'TV by the Numbers', as well...against NFL football AND the hugely-popular 'Walking Dead' (although that was a re-run of the second episode)...

Take it, progressives! Take it in the neck...

Paging Mr. Rove, Mr. Karl Rove... please pick up the white courtesy phone and explain how having 5 million potential voters view you and your all-American family behaving normally like their families do is somehow “unpresidential”!!

Started out good, the bears and such while fishing but the last fifteen or twenty minutes about the rock climbing was so boring I would have changed channels if there was anything at all going on.

You know, they made her... the liberals... they are responsible for her raving success. If they had more brain and less emotion, they could have left her alone, and she’d probably still be Gov of Alaska and out of the public mind.

Man, that Palin has no idea what she’s doing, eh Karl?

The irony is that some of the same young turks who helped pioneer new technology like campaign web sites (remember when it was weird when a candidate mentioned their web address that’s now printed on everything?). Remember when these guys formed money-bombs and organized netroots and now they’re smirking at Palin for her tweets and for her TV show here. How ironic.

The same guys who wrote Palin off as a marginal player with nothing more than a Twitter account. Pffft... yeah. Oh the irony here is rich.
