Sarah Palin's reality TV show is inching closer to reality. Both A&E and Discovery are interested in Sarah Palin’s Alaska, the series she’s working on with executive producer Mark Burnett. The show would follow Palin as she gives viewers a tour of Alaska locales (a gold mine! fishing boats!), and she wants $1 million to $1.5 million per episode. Despite the price tag, an insider tells the Hollywood Reporter, “It will sell. One way or another.”
