Sarah Palin set for 'Alaska' season 2

New York, Dec 19 (ANI): Sarah Palin is ready to get back to work as a reality TV star with a new series of 'Alaska.'

Producer Mark Burnett has revealed that he is in talks with TLC to bring "Sarah Palin's Alaska" back for a second season next fall.

"The plan would be to shoot this in the summer of 2012," he told the New York Post.

New episodes of the outdoorsy reality series - which shows the former vice-presidential candidate fishing, hunting and dog sledding with her family - would not air until after the November presidential election.

"By the time we edit it, the election will be over. But I am sure the election would be mentioned [in the show]," Burnett stated.

"It makes perfect sense, because that is what's going on. But it would be again Sarah in Alaska, living with Todd and the family and having adventures juxtaposed with doing her Fox News bits and discussing whatever is going on," he asserted.

Burnett also rubbished reports that surfaced last week, which claimed TLC and other networks balked at a new 1 million dollar-per-episode spin-off series featuring Palin's husband on the professional snowmobiling circuit.

"That is totally inaccurate. In fact, the idea around snowmobiling was to be part of an episode in 'Sarah Palin's Alaska' - not a series," Burnett insisted.

"Sarah Palin's Alaska" premiered in November 2010 to more than 5 million viewers. It was the number one premiere ever on TLC," Burnett noted. (ANI)
