Get With It TLC—This Will Be My Favorite Show!

TLC, the garbage factory formerly known as The Learning Channel, is reportedly not interested in a new reality show being pitched by Sarah Palin and Mark Burnett, who produced Sarah Palin's Alaska that aired on TLC and was obviously television gold.

How is it possible that the channel which will exploit any human being for a tuppence is even contemplating not putting this magic on the air, like, yesterday?

The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Palin and Burnett are pitching another reality series, this one more focused on Palin's husband Todd and his career as a championship snowmobile racer. But for now, TLC owner Discovery Communications has passed, say sources. And A&E Networks, which entered into a bidding war with Discovery for Sarah Palin's Alaska, also is not interested.

So far, networks have balked at the steep asking price – Palin's Alaska went for north of $1 million an episode and sources say Burnett and Palin are asking for a similar payday for the follow-up. Mark Burnett Productions did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Only one million per episode for the adventures of Todd Palin and his snow machine?! COUGH UP, TLC! That is a bargain!
