Season 1 Review: This hybrid reality/nature show doesn't offer much in the way of compelling story lines, but there's just something fascinating about anyone who, upon seeing bears frolicking, inches in for a closer look rather than running for home. [12 Nov 2010, p.70]

Season 1 Review: The Most natural thing here is Palin's effortless command of the camera. In That Regard, the show is fascinating. [22 Nov 2010, p.38]

Season 1 Review: It's the fabulous shamelessness, the awful and yet admirable brilliance of the thing. Whether Palin will ever run for office or not, Sarah Palin's Alaska sets a new standard for political ads.

Season 1 Review: Surely it will have Palin lovers rushing to plant wet smooches on the screen and all the haters citing it as proof that TV is, indeed, full of dreck.

Season 1 Review: It's essentially "John & Kate Plus Eight." Minus the divorce. Plus cavorting grizzly bears.
