Sarah Palin Fails To Find Buyer For Latest TV Show Sarah Palin has so far failed to find a buyer for her latest television show idea in a further sign that her star is on the wane.
In the last few years Sarah Palin has made millions of dollars from two books and numerous public appearances By Nick Allen 13 Dec 2011
The former Republican vice presidential candidate's new proposed foray into reality TV would focus on her husband Todd's career as a champion snowmobile racer. It would be a follow up to "Sarah Palin's Alaska," an eight-part travelogue which was sold to The Learning Channel (TLC) for more than $1 million an episode and first broadcast in November last year.
That show followed the former Alaska governor and her family around the state, including footage of her shooting a caribou on a hunting trip, going on a deep sea fishing expedition, and visiting a logging camp. It broke ratings records for a first episode on TLC, drawing more than five million viewers. However, it dropped to three million for the second episode and received mixed reviews, with entertainment industry bible Variety commenting "Boring? You betcha".
Discovery Communications, which owns TLC, has not bought the latest idea for a Palin show. Cable and satellite broadcaster A&E Networks, which bid for the previous series, is also reportedly not interested.

Sun Tzu did make the list some time ago, you know. :)
This is an ongoing list of historical, popular, and Biblical people, as well as fictional characters and animals that Sarah Palin™ has been compared to on FR:
Sarah was pretty and had a political mouth on her that we all liked, but somewhere in the middle of failing to do her homework and pretending a campaign, because it was too much trouble, the Trademark looked easier and told us instantly of her intentions. What she promotes outside of politcs, I for one, would have zero interest in hearing about, certainly not Todd, or how to build a snow mobile, or Alaska, or anything else having to do with how to be a tomboy. She has squeezed about the last turnip for cash.
Another Palin-bashing Gingrich supporter.
To Tea Party members: Newt is not on our side.
.
Probably still paying off all those legal bills from when she was Governor of Alaska.
She will have nothing do do with it because we are tired of her using us!
If she happens to chose a winner, it will be pure luck only this time because she has proven she really isn’t a leader.
Watch the Tea Party start to marginalize her soon.
You heard that from me first!!!
And you truly are an idiot only because you have no idea about my support?
No, because you don’t know how to work the search button.
Rita was a Perry supporter until............
Your take on the UK PDS article is correct. It amazes me to see how many PDSers are still eager to post bile along with those former supporters who felt rejected when Palin made the wise decision to sit this one out (as a presidential candidate).

Dreams are always priced higher than reality!
I love it that you’ve kept a list!

Drat! No Speed Racer Todd!
Finally some common sense
After witnessing the media brutalization of her these past three years, culminating in the whole newsmedia accusing her of complicity in mass murder, along with dragging her kids and family into the tabloid mud of lies and smears, she probably made the right choice not to run. Had she, the media would have gone ballistic, and purposefully ginned up enough hatred of her to basically solicit her killing. She never would have made it to the White House alive.
??? Non sequitur .... your logic is flawed.
My logic is always flawed. :-)
I will predict that Sarah Palin will endorse Romney, as will Michelle Bachmann eventually!
Sarah Palin = Old news. I wish her well, but not interested in anything she says or does. Nice knowing ya’.
Interesting isn’t it that the same posters who always hated Palin, and would jump on every thread to say how much their grocer and their barber and their next-door-neighbor all LOATHED Palin, and thus she shouldn’t even dare think about running... are the same ones who now jump onto these threads and condemn and belittle her for not running?
I just file them away as being from the innately ‘corrupt’ wing of the GOP establishment.
This is pretty excellent. Too bad you didn’t keep the links to the posts. That would be some good reading.
At that point, the Vulcans raise their eyebrows at the human and quietly segregate to more productive prospects.
