(CNN) – Sarah Palin's much anticipated reality show will hit the airwaves next November, just days after the midterm elections when the political world begins to look toward the 2012 presidential race.
"Sarah Palin's Alaska" – the show that has been billed as a "Planet Earth-style" documentary about the state – will premiere at 9 p.m. November 14 on TLC, network president Eileen O'Neill said at the Television Critics Association press tour, according to the trade publication Broadcast and Cable.
Little is known about the show besides the fact it is being spearheaded by "Survivor" creator Mark Burnett.
A Palin source told CNN in April that the show "is not going to be focused on her family, or in her house, or in Wasilla."
Instead, it appears the state of Alaska will be as much the focus of the program as the former vice presidential nominee.
"It's become clear it takes a special individual to thrive in Alaska," O'Neill said.
Variety reported earlier this year Palin stands to receive upwards of $1 million an episode.

Let me guess, the title of the show is, "ARE YOU DUMBER THAN SARAH PALIN".
If she really quit being governor to help the people of Alaska, she would donate All the money she receives to the people of Alaska.
What is going on?????? Are there not more important things in life than this woman, Sarah Palin?? Her energies should be directed at looking after her family.
She's such a tool. No surprise, really. Just like Hannity, Rush and their ilk all SP cares about is her bank account. ANYONE who thinks she gives a crap about you is completely snowed.
We almost booked a cruise to Alaska this summer until I realized the danger of running into a jack-butt with lipstick. Does Alaska realize the number of tourists they've lost thanks to Ms. Fluffhead?
Shouldn't this show be on Fox News? Since unintelligent conservatives watch little else, I doubt that this reality show will last very long. TLC, did you let this one skip the "pilot" stage?
nov. 14 at 21:00 .....good luck, it is Sunday Night Football, audience watching the alaska hag: maybe 120 people
OH, so she has the time to create a TV show but couldn't finish her term as governor?
Please somebody lose her in the outback of Alaska. She is a Joke, Hack, Pig, no-nothing fake.
hope that pathetic idiot also shows the side of Alaska that no one knows.
Social decay, Meth problems, out of control gun trafficking and trailer trash rasist!
"Sarah Palins Alaska", and here I thought it would be called "Stupid is as Stupid Does"
OK,
So Palin is Alaska, and Alaska is Palin? Lord have Mercy!
~$1M per episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
choosing palin to host a wildlife show is an insult to people who really do care about the environment! would TLC choose a pedifile to host a children's special??
love all the hate filled comments, Sarah rocks!
mark should ask every one, out of this group of haters to be on a show called "who's smarter than Palin", and a group of first graders could help the other contestants. After the first 50 lose to her, they could use groups of 5, and then 10, and so on until all 300 lost. then the Obama's take her on for championship!
