Updated with Ratings: Sarah Palin’s Alaska – I Liked the Show – Others Did Too
TLC’s “SARAH PALIN’S ALASKA” DELIVERS 4.96M TOTAL VIEWERS
The premiere of TLC’s Sarah Palin’s Alaska (Sun, Nov 14, 9-10 p.m. ET/PT) garnered a 3.5 HH rating and delivered 4.96M P2+, 1.8M P25-54, 1.1M W25-54, 1.6M P18-49, 4.7M P18+ and 3.9M P35+, according to Nielsen fast nationals.
Sarah Palin’s Alaska is the #1 program launch in TLC history among HH and P2+ delivery, besting the What Not to Wear series launch in 2003, and posting triple digit rating and delivery gains vs. the prior six week prime average, and the 4Q10 to-date prime average.
I watched Sarah Palin’s Alaska (TLC) this Monday morning (recorded on my DVR) and I liked the show.
I watch a whole bunch of television (mostly recorded) including reality shows and found Sarah Palin and her family to be engagingly delightful. Now, this isn’t Survivor or The Apprentice, other Mark Burnett produced shows but fits right in with the TLC genre of family entertainment.
Is the show political?
Why, of course it is and I think you would have to be either naive or a dullard to think otherwise. Sarah, Todd and the children have been brutally portrayed in the Left-leaning media, particularly CBS and NBC. Ridiculed is the word that often comes to my mind.
So, here is a chance for some redemption in the minds of the media. Yeah, Tina Fey will continue to do her mocking portrayal of Sarah “seeing Russia from my house” but will be balanced with a more honest depiction of a woman raisng her family in Alaska.
I have already set a series recording for the remaining seven episodes of Sarah Palin’s Alaska.
Exit question: Will Sarah Palin run for President in 2012?
After watching – who cares?
Sarah has a wonderful family and life.

Very decent show and we will watch it again! Screw George Soros and his commie crew who are trying to sabatoge the show and its ratings!
