Bristol Palin is set to star in her own reality show on The Lifetime Network. The network has ordered 10 episodes of Bristol Palin: Life’s a Tripp, a half hour docuseries that will “provide an exclusive , rare glimpse into Bristol Palin’s real life as a young, single mother forging her own way in the world while living under the constant spotlight as a member of one of America’s most high-profile families.”
“This show will reveal the real Bristol Palin and her journey as a daughter, a mother and a young woman making her way in the world.“ Said Rob Sharenow, executive vice president, Programming of Lifetime Networks.
Bristol is hoping that this reality show catches the interest of America. You may remember that Bristol had previously filmed a LA-based reality show, alongside DWTS cast member Kyle Massey for A&E’s BIO channel. The show never aired and was quietly cut from the networks lineup.
Sarah Palin has also had trouble with reality shows. Her show, Sarah Palin’s Alaska was a one hit wonder. The debut episode broke a ratings record for a debut episode on TLC but the ratings went downhill from there and the network decided to not renew it for a second season.
Will this show finally be the “hit” that the Palin’s have been looking for? Will you tune in?
