August 7, 2010 -- 'Sarah Palin's Alaska': Kate Gosselin plus 8 are set to show up for the former Governor's new TLC series, reports a new EW story.
The premiere, slated for November 14, will feature both high-profile women as they appreciate Alaska's awesome wilderness, says Entertainment Weekly.
This gesture does seem appropriate since TLC's newest entry on the small screen is being touted as a nature documentary. However, viewers will probably be looking beyond the beauty to the interaction between Gosselin and Palin.
That said, whether Kate and Sarah really hit it off as they are viewed on 'Sarah Palin's Alaska' with reality gal Gosselin in the 49th US state romping around with her 8 reality star kids on the series premiere -- well, that's another story, perhaps one left on the cutting room floor.

I will be having TLC removed from my cable.
Oh, I just cant wait. What a joke. whoever is sponsoring these crazy shows I will surely boycot their product. Cant America see through these 2 grifters?
If EVER Palin wanted to be taken seriously - it would not have been associating with the world's worst reality show diva -Kate Gosselin. According to sources, Kate wasn't happy with anything on the trip and they ended up having to put her in a cabin with electricity and a bathroom just so she would shut up!
According to the Enquirer, "They handed her a bucket with a toilet seat on top... Kate said, 'What the hell am I going to do with this!'Then she burst into tears and started moaning that she wanted to leave... When it was time to eat, Kate opened the cooler prepared for her and the children and three another fit when she saw prepackaged mini meals... She said 'My kids can't eat this crap, they need a real meal! Then she started griping - in front of Sarah - that the ex-governor's food was grilled hamburgers and hotdogs!'"
Welcome to reality TV Sarah!
Gorgeous Gov. Sarah Palin is the most beautiful, brilliant, & exciting lady in the world. Can't wait for her blockbuster TLC show. She will rock!
I think that palin and gosselin would be a great team for 2012 for president!! Hey - if a B-movie actor can get elected president (Reagan) and still be lauded even tho he started the downfall of America, why not Sarah and Kate!!
I think Eileen O'Neil has gotten off way to easy. It is so easy for her to sit behind her behind the BIG FAT DESK at TLC's head office and let her little workers take the heat. I think we should be dragging HER name through the mud for where she is taking that TLC network. Hey Eileen...we sure as hell know where your moral compass is - IN THE GUTTER LADY!!!! Sarah...you are a joke. Kate, you are plain ignorant!
I Say EILEEN O'NEIL FOR PRESIDENT!! Oh yes, she has taken a little no name network like TLC and given it a name, maybe not a nice name, but a name of some sort. I agree with Steve - O'Neil has no morals!! In the words of George Lopez asking everyone to vote Kate to win DWTS, I say VOTE FOR O'NEIL..VOTE FOR O'NEIL..VOTE FOR O'NEIL!!! what a joke....
EILEEN O'NEIL - where are you???? We want to see you.....Be brave and put yourself in the public eye where we can see you. It's time to stop hiding...Helloooo. Isn't it interesting that she is keeping such a low profile throughout all this and she sends in her little employees to take the heat to answer for TLC. Is she not the President of this network. Come people, let's turn the heat on TLC. EILEEN STOP HIDING!!! It's your turn now...
Gee, now the two idiots are appearing in the same room. What a joke!
Right, Kate Gosselin appreciates the beauty of Alaska. LOL
Only if it has a 5 star hotel and her kiddies don't get their hands dirty.
Oh my god - you guys are right - just search for Eileen O'Neill (communications and PR one that is and not the celebrity one). Eileen has gotten off so easy. Radaraonline, ET, People Magazine and other news media - why in hell are you not asking TLC president, Eileen O'Neill for an interview, unless you have and she has turned each and everyone of you down.
Opportunist meets opportunist and the kids have to endure another scene with Mommy losing it. This is Sarah Palin's Alaska - where someone pays to bring in a pseudo-celebrity and her brood and other people pay to watch them eat food someone else prepared for them on their "camping" trip. Yeah. You get what you pay for! I never could see spending money on cable tv and now I have another reason not to throw my hard-earned money away. But some people, obviously, have plenty of money to support these two whackos. I'm a single mom too, though I was smart enough to not have a litter of kids, and I work hard to pay my own way and to provide my kids with everything they need and some of their wants. I don't have money to spend on stupid television shows, silly gossipy books, or defense funds for idiot women who are important mostly to themselves.
Kate Gosselin wimped out on a camping trip in some of the most beautiful country in the world.
As fasinating as they both are, I hope only the true fans will watch. This nonsense will never end until people realize that they can say what they want, as long as they watch. Nothing can be said they hasn't been already said. She knows this and feeds on it. It's working so why change.
You can't criticize if you don't watch. She takes all of this to the bank, so who's the fool?
The Learning Channel shall now be known as The Loonie Channel.
To Amused, I think you meant to say "as nauseating as these 2 are" Sarah and Kate are both laughingstocks, and embarrassments. Shame on you TLC. YOU HAVE JUST LOST ANOTHER VIEWER.
I would love to see a nature show about Alaska but will not view this one. Mainly because she is a murderous wench and I cant stand her voice or her looks. So long TLC.
Eileen O'Neill is an idiot and I cant wait to find out who is sponsoring this comedy.
What a joke! TLC-The Laughingstock Channel. Sarah Palin-WORST GOVERNOR OF ALASKA! YOU BETCHA!
Palin was not only the worst governor Alaska has ever seen, but the worst mayor wasilla has ever seen. She left us with a 22 million deficit. Please Palin followers, do some research. This woman is looneytunes.
Man, do I HATE you, John McCain!!!
Your absolutely right Ken...5 mil for showing your state! Think she will donate it to help out the economy that she is so concerned about?
The viewers have more power than they think and its not going to stop until people stop watching. The whole senerio is sickening...
..TLC is also getting richer... I just keep refusing to watch any show that promotes them and will not watch TLC. If you truly believe in them, by all means watch. I will find my entertainment elsewhere! I don't even like posting... Its more attention and they get enough of that. If you seriously want this to end...walk the dogs like we do.
I will be calling each and every sponsor and boycotting their products. I suggest everyone do the same. This is a travesty and all about greed.
Eileen O'Neill is laughing to the bank! She doesn't give two hoots about anyone - all she is interested in is "gee...what can I do with MY network to keep the viewers responding, watching, etc... so we can make more money from a lie." If you google O'Neill's name, hardly anything appears about her - that's because O'Neill knows that she has been and is still trying to tell a story that is a lie about the Gosselin's and I would say if she has put Gosselin and Sarah together, that is likely because they are getting desperate for ratings!!! DON'T WATCH TLC. O'Neill is a disgusting creature!
TLC is the LYING CHANNEL, the LOSER CHANNEL, the LAUGHING STOCK CHANNEL !!!! NBC and ABC are disgusting loser channels as well for promoting Gosselin on many occasions, such as Jay Leno, The View, Today Show, The Insider, Access Hollywood, DWTS, and now the Emmy's!! From what I hear, they are all being told to interview her not because they agree with the family, but it is for ratings. It is the viewers against the networks and the viewers do have power to stop this madness. Networks want ratings and stupid viewers who watch Gosselin are what the networks want from us. If we don't watch - then we have power over the networks.
Im counting the days, hours and minutes. Oh, I just cant wait. NOT!
I say BOYCOT TLC call all sponsors of Simple Sarahs Alaska and boycot their products. From what ive heard, they had a hard time finding sponsors for the show.
They remind me of 2 mean girls from high school.
Oh, good God! Will it ever end with these 2 airheads?
The downfall of The Loonie Channel. Sarah Palin is a joke, along with all her crazy cult followers and scary, too! Sarah Palin, quit hiding behind Facebook and face the nation. We'd like to ask you some questions.
So one moronic, rotten mother gets to bond with another. Well, they can share tips on how best to take advantage of their kids. This household will be tuned to something else, anything else! I will never put a penny in either of these non -working, media loving women's pockets.
I just want to know who is sponsoring Palin? I will boycott all of them and so will the many women I know who were sickened that the Repugs would insult our intelligence with this laughable excuse for a "law-maker." Any show that has a promo, is immediately turned off in our home. Please, just tell me the sponsors. As far 19 Kids and Counting and Kate and her Eight, think about it. Our taxes cover two -- did you get that? TWO children. How nice that now only do I/we have to pay for their educations and space on the planet, we get to see their pictures everywhere and anyone with a uterous thinks it is a way to fame and glory. How dare they idealize a shameful norm that the planet can handle another billion people, because that's where we are headed. TLC - I'LL BLOCK THE CHANNEL.
What lie did somebody tell Kate to get her on a camping trip in Alaska? LMAO I'd say I'm not watching but it would be a lie because I wouldn't miss another Kate meltdown for the world... Its too bad I thought I liked Sarah Palin up until this point.
Got something to say?
