Sarah Palin’s TLC Reality Series Reportedly Not Going to Be Renewed

(HMG Celebrity News) – In what may be a move to keep her options open for a run at president, Sunday’s season finale of Sarah Palin’s Alaska is said to be the show’s last episode, Entertainment Weekly reports.

Despite some bad press, the former Alaska governor’s TLC reality series, which premiered Nov. 14, was popular enough averaging 3.2 million viewers per and its first episode delivering the network’s best-ever launch ratings, that it would ordinarily be a no-brainer to be renewed.  EW speculates that doing a second season would send a message that Palin was not serious about running for president, and would also potentially put TLC in the dilemma of having to provide her fellow candidates with equal-access time of their own in the event she did decide to run.

Reportedly Palin took down her take 20 website and some of the pages that referred to it on Facebook yesterday.  Take 20 is the website, which had the crosshairs map targeting Arizona moderate Democratic rep  Giffords, who was shot in the head, in an assassination attempt yesterday.
