TV: Todd Palin to be on ‘Stars Earn Stripes’
Washington Post ^ | June 19, 2012 | Lisa De Moraes

Sarah Palin’s husband, Todd, is among those competing in NBC’s new reality series “Stars Earn Stripes,” the network revealed Tuesday.

This is not entirely surprising, given that “SES” exec producer Mark Burnett also exec-produced Sarah’s TLC reality series “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.” And late last year, word around Hollywood was that Sarah and Burnett were pitching a reality series about Todd’s career as a championship snowmobile racer. Apparently, there were no takers.

Maybe more surprising, retired Gen. Wesley Clark, the former supreme allied commander in Europe for NATO and a 2004 presidential candidate, is going to host the show with “Entertainment Tonight”/“Dancing With the Stars” alumna Samantha Harris.

We’ll give you a moment to mull that pairing.

[...]

Each week on “Stars Earn Stripes,” the competitors, teamed with members of the military or law enforcement, will attempt to complete “missions” inspired by military exercises. The winnings will be donated to first-responder and veterans groups. Todd, for example, is playing for Armed Services YMCA Alaska, NBC said.

"I think that's an interesting premise"

Of all the hyper-contrived reality shows, I really enjoy the ones that are based on military tactics and strategy.

Remember the show, War Games? The only disappointment was that SWAT contestants won over hard-core military.

Unfortunately I didn’t have the chance, but it does sound interesting.

I might DVR this just for the “Todd is a hot thing” factor.
