Judge Sarah?
Sarah Palin is back in the reality show world -- and this time with a Judge Judy-type show.
The former Alaska governor, who does not have a law degree, signed a deal with Montana-based production company Warm Springs for a reality court show that would premiere next year if it's picked up by stations, according to Howard Bragman of Fifteen Minutes PR, which represents the production company.
Palin was first approached about the show in 2015 and would work with TV executive Larry Lyttle who found Judge Judy and Judge Joe Brown.
"It's about different personalities and different styles," Bragman told CNN. "Same way late night talk shows are different as dictated by the hosts. Similar format -- different show."
According to People, Palin is currently in Alaska with her husband, Todd, who's transitioning from intensive care following a serious snow machine accident March 13.

Next case."

(27,995 posts)It sounds like it's just a production deal at this point. Wait until she finds out that she has to make a pilot and try to sell it to stations.

(15,384 posts)It is too much work for her, and in the beginning, she won't be smart enough to make sure her decisions reflect the conservative mindset. More than likely, they'll get some interns at a conservative think tank to talk to her through an earpiece to direct her questioning and make the decision for her.
