Sarah Palin Wants to be Paid $1-1.5 Million For a New Reality Series

[MadBadger]

The reality show being pitched by former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin with reality producer Mark Burnett has been passed on by all the major networks according to reports, but still has hope of finding a home on cable.

Variety’s Michael Schneider earlier in the day reported that both A&E Networks (which includes, A&E, History and Lifetime) and Discovery (which includes Animal Planet and TLC) were interested. But James Hibberd reports that Discovery has passed.

Schneider reported that Palin is seeking around $1 million per episode. Hibberd’s report ups to between $1 million and $1.5 million and notes that’s a hefty amount for a first year series.

1. Hmmm...now which other cable network might conceivably be interested?

2. wow

It will probably cost $500,000 just to splice a single episode together into something coherent.

3. The only way they'll get that kind of money is by including nudity

At least it would keep the hard core right wingers distracted for a while.

:hi:

4. What will it take to keep her OFF television?

(digs in pocket) I got six bucks.

5. We need to have a network activated that will bomb the hell out of sponsors with calls.

6. What will Animal Planet's theme be for Palin? Dog in heat?

9. Jesus Fucking Christ

What a greedy shitlick, all puffed up and full of herself.

The LAST thing the world needs is more Sarah Palin.

10. *BARF*

And all of this after smearing Obama as a "celebrity President."

Imagine having this fame-addicted nut as our Vice President.

11. Only America would reward someone the betrayed their office

and failed to win, in one of the worst run GOP elections I've ever seen. Just like Corporate America to reward it's failures with millions, how sad. Didn't we learn anything from bailing out Donald Trump? A turd is a turd, let it dry up and flake away in the sun for Gods sake! Yes Glenn Beck I'm talking about you...

12. Simply nuts

More and more I swear this lady's role was just to make Obama look like the best choice. That was the best thing I've seen her do. :(
