Sarah Palin to host reality show as TV judge

(CNN)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.
The story was first reported by People Magazine.
This isn't Palin's first foray into reality television -- before this, Palin starred in "Sarah Palin's Alaska" on TLC, which started in 2010.
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."
Palin returned to the political spotlight again in January after endorsing GOP front-runner Donald Trump for president. While stumping for Trump last week in Florida, she referred to Trump's frequent rally protestors as "punk-ass, little thuggery."
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.

Sarah Palin Developing Her Own Judge Judy-Style Reality Show
Move over, Judge Judy. There could be a new TV courtroom judge coming to town – and it's none other than former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
The onetime vice presidential candidate has been tapped to preside over a planned reality court show that would premiere next year, if it gets picked up by stations. She signed a deal in February with Montana-based production company Warm Springs, a source close to the process tells PEOPLE.
"It's a production deal," the source explains. "What happens next is she'll meet with stations, make a pilot and sell it."
Warm Springs first approached Palin with the idea in 2015 and has since put together a team that includes the TV executive who found Judge Judy and Judge Joe Brown.
Unlike the two famous TV judges, Palin does not have a juris doctor degree. But the source notes that the bestselling author has a variety of other qualities that make her perfectly suited to the job.
"Palin's telegenic personality, wide appeal and common sense wisdom make her a natural for this kind of format and she was Warm Springs' top pick for this project."
The as-yet-untitled show would premiere as a nationwide syndicated daytime show in the fall of 2017, the source adds.
Palin is currently in Alaska caring for her husband, Todd, who's transitioning from intensive care following a serious snow machine accident on March 13.

Re: Sarah Palin's new job
And let's hope she will remain an embarrassing joke, instead of becoming an embarrassing Vice President. Reality TV suits her well, no complaints from me.
