They love her, they really love her:
Sarah Palin has once again refudiated her detractors. The critics may not have loved her new TLC reality show, but the former Alaska governor proved she is ratings gold.
“Sarah Palin’s Alaska” was the most-watched series launch in TLC history, with an average of 5 million total viewers tuning in to Sunday’s premiere, according to early data from the Nielsen Co.
So, it beat out “Sister Wives” and “19 Kids and Counting.” I couldn’t find the numbers for “16 and Pregnant” and “I Didn’t Know I was Pregnant”, “Quints by Surprise” and “Sextuplets Take Manhattan” but I guess they didn’t do as well as the “Sarah, Todd, Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper and Trig” show either. Imagine if she had some more kids! Still, I think this one is likely to be a much bigger hit than any of them:
