Titled “Sarah Palin’s Alaska,” producers began pitching the series earlier this month, billing it as a show about Alaska seen through Palin’s eyes. It will be shot in the style of Discovery’s “Planet Earth,” showcasing the state’s natural beauty.

Though no details on how much Palin is getting paid to be in the show, she was reportedly seeking a whopping 1.2 million U.S. dollars per episode, making it the most expensive nature series ever produced.

The former Alaska governor has been busy on TV in recent months, and reportedly been working on her new book, which is about “celebration of American virtues and strengths.”
