Kate and ‘Cake’ plus Sarah

Maybe there will be a crossover episode with Kate Gosselin.

Discovery’s TLC cable network – home to the likes of Gosselin and “Cake Boss” – has just added former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin to its roster.

“Sarah Palin’s Alaska” will tell the story of some of the state’s unique features as seen through the eyes of its former governor.

Palin and producer Mark Burnett (“Survivor”) shopped the show to the major broadcast networks, but none bit.

It has an eight-episode commitment on TLC and filming is set to begin this summer. No airdate has been set.
