How has it come to be that a “reality show” means it’s phony as hell?

A nice scene would be one of her and Todd arguing about where to plug in the tanning bed.

This is brilliant--and it's going to drive the progressive-kooknut, anti-Palin crowd NUTS.

Will set her up handily to increase her exposure--and power. She'll be able to define herself on her own terms.

I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss this. Palin’s political instincts are awfully damned good.

"'Planet Earth' meets Alaska meets her family," referring to Discovery's high-definition nature hit.

"As a short-order series, it might work. It would depend on what kind of footage you get."

If THIS as described above is the nature of the series/mini-series it could be very classy with high production value.

Since I trust Sarah's judgment I think the writer is trying to make this sound like some sleazy tabloid-style weekly crap cake like the ozbournes or bridezilla or brain-dead-blond-floozy-life or something.

Context, writing, visuals and format all make a huge difference. An "Earth" style mini-series done in spectacular HD would be great. And if, for instance, "Alaska" also means something like the James Michener novel, it could have a great storyline, too.

It all depends on the initial vision and the team she can assemble.

I really do not believe she wants to run in 2012. This is a horrible idea if she does.

She is not running for POTUS in 2012 out right or taking the serious challenge needed for a POTUS candidate.

You know, I now have to re-evaluate everything. If she is doing this, there is simply no way she is serious about a presidential bid.

She wants to be a celebrity. I guess there is more money in it.

Why don’t they do a “Survivor Alaska” or have they already?

Just wait a bit before jumping to conclusions.

Everyone, including a large number of Freepers, underestimates her.

People see “reality show” and automatically conclude that it’s an exercise in voyeurism.

This sounds more like a nature documentary show.

My mother was born and raised in Alaska. I’ve been there. It’s a beautiful place.

It might be a pretty good show.

I picked up where I left off last night and finished reading this thread.

Congratulations, ODH, on starting one of the nastier threads I’ve seen in quite some time.

If your goal was to stir the pot and pit FReeper against FReeper, well, score one for you.
