6	Sarah Louise Palin (née Heath, born February 11, 1964) is an American politician who served as the ninth governor of UsefulNotes/{{Alaska}} from 2006 until 2009.
7
8	A former high school basketball star and beauty queen (she took third in the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant, and was voted Miss Congeniality), Palin briefly worked as a sports journalist before focusing on politics. She was elected to the Wasilla, Alaska city council in 1992 at age 28, became mayor four years later, served two terms, then was appointed to the cabinet of Governor Frank Murkowski in 2002. In 2006 she crushed the embattled Murkowski in the Republican primary and became the youngest governor in Alaska's history (at age 42) after winning a tight race against former governor Tony Knowles
9
10	In 2008, she was [[AscendedExtra abruptly thrust]] onto the pop culture radar after Republican presidential nominee UsefulNotes/JohnMcCain chose her as his vice presidential running mate against Democrats UsefulNotes/BarackObama and UsefulNotes/JoeBiden. She was the second female vice presidential nominee of a major party in U.S. history (the first being Democrat Geraldine Ferraro in 1984), and the first of the Republican Party. In July 2009, Palin [[OptOut resigned her position as governor]] with 18 months remaining in her first term, one of the official reasons being saving the costs to the Alaskan budget of defending herself [[FrivolousLawsuit against detractors]]; said detractors have naturally offered a different explanation. Since then she has toured the country as a paid speaker and founded the conservative political action committee [=SarahPAC=]. She was for a while considered the likely frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012, but ultimately declined to run, likely because polls showed that, while she was still popular among the Republican grassroots and would have stood a decent (though by no means certain) chance of clinching the nomination, she would have faired poorly against Obama in the general election.
11
12	Unlike most politicians on the TV Tropes wiki, Sarah Palin isn't notable for her politics so much as her effect on pop culture. When she entered the public stage as John [=McCain=]'s running mate, she was a surprise pick and a virtual unknown,[[note]]prior to her nomination, the two favorites for the spot among political commentators were Mitt Romney and Tim Pawlenty, with [=McCain=]'s close friend Joe Lieberman generally being seen as the most out-there plausible pick[[/note]] her major league political experience amounting to two years as governor of the nation's most sparsely populated state. The reason for her nomination stemmed from her strongly conservative views[[note]][=McCain=]'s relative centrism by the standards of the 2008 Republican Party was generally seen as a weakness, with Palin coming in as a much more representative example of the party's base[[/note]], her age[[note]][=McCain=] was 72 during the 2008 election, with his VP pick actually happening on his birthday. Palin at 44 was seen as bringing a younger balance to the nomination while helping to ease fears about [=McCain=]'s health, particularly as he had been a multiple-time cancer survivor[[/note]], and her gender[[note]]On the Democratic Party side, the battle between Obama and Hillary Clinton had been a rough one, and Palin was seen as someone who, at least in theory, could attract Clinton supporters to the Republican ticket[[/note]]. This gamble appeared to pay of when she energized the base with a strong, well-received speech at the Republican convention. Her charisma gave the [=McCain=] campaign a much-needed bump in the polls. However, when she was interviewed by Katie Couric of Creator/{{CBS}} Evening News (this was only Palin's third interview since being selected as running mate), she confounded viewers with her disorganized answers. Entertainment and political humor programs like ''Series/TheDailyShowWithJonStewart'' instantly took notice, presenting Palin as an earnest but somewhat incoherent hick swimming in a situation far over her head. Her comic persona was cemented with a ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' sketch starring Creator/TinaFey that parodied the interview... without even having to [[QuoteMine change very much of the dialogue]].
13
14	From that point onward, Palin's public persona has largely been defined, rightly or wrongly, by her SoBadItsGood [[{{Malaproper}} absurd]] politispeak. Politicians in general are considered targets of mockery, and the Couric interview turned Palin into a lightning rod for it. When she appears or is mentioned in most fictional media, she will take on these traits largely [[RuleOfFunny because it's funny]]. Incidentally, her popular culture portrayal reached an extent that lines Tina Fey would say while impersonating Sarah Palin would be taken out of context and attributed to Palin ''[[TheTysonZone as though she herself said them]]''.
15
16	There are shows out there which try to treat Palin as a more serious, dignified individual, but these simply don't have the same PopculturalOsmosis value largely because they just aren't as entertaining to most of the kind of people who would read Website/ThisVeryWiki. As for studies on her role in politics and American history, the main debate will probably be whether she were the youthful and energetic shot in the arm that [=McCain's=] campaign needed or [=McCain's=] [[TheLoad load]] whose popularity and fanbase came at the expense of his own. The years since have seen some comparisons with UsefulNotes/BarryGoldwater's presidential run in 1964, in that while both Palin and Goldwater were parts of heavily-derided presidential tickets that suffered landslide defeats, they nonetheless served to shift the Republican Party more towards populist conservatism and set the stage for future presidential tickets that were more electorally successful (UsefulNotes/RichardNixon and especially UsefulNotes/RonaldReagan in Goldwater's case, UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump in Palin's). On [=McCain's=] part, he came to regret the decision to pick her as his running mate by the time he died in August 2018. He saw her as too inexperienced and felt like he had been pressured into picking her. He had initially wanted his good friend Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman, but had to back down under threat of a right wing revolt because Lieberman had been a Democrat until two years prior. Palin wasn't invited to [=McCain's=] funeral.
17
18	In 2022, Palin made her first run for public office since 2008 when she ran in the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election special]] and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_United_States_House_of_Representatives_election_in_Alaska general]] election for Alaska's single, at-large congressional seat after Don Young, who had held the seat since 1973 and was the Dean of the House of Representatives[[note]]longest continuously-serving member of the House[[/note]], died on March 18, 2022. She lost to Democrat Mary Peltola in both elections.

21	Needless to say, anyone looking for a nuanced and balanced political discussion of Palin's influence in America is on the wrong wiki. Portrayals (or parodies) of Palin in modern media typically hit on at least one of these notes: being from small-town Alaska, with all of the provincialism this implies; a love of hunting, guns, and the outdoors; being the mother of a child with Down Syndrome; speaking with an energetic-if-idiosyncratic style with many {{neologism}}s (and in an [[UsefulNotes/AmericanAccents accent]] that sounds ''exactly'' like Marge Gunderson in ''Film/{{Fargo}}''); and being more attractive than the average politician, maybe even mentioning that she participated in beauty pageants.[[note]]Palin won the Miss Wasilla beauty pageant in 1984; she finished third (as second runner-up) in the Miss Alaska pageant.[[/note]] Her actual political value, as far as we can tell, has very little to do with these things.
22
23	Note: Palin's much remarked-upon accent and speech style isn't actually an "Alaskan accent"; people from Alaska don't generally talk that way. Rather, Palin's parents were from ''Idaho'', and her speech patterns are actually an Idaho accent/syntax - understandably, therefore, her speech sounds like what the actors were affecting for a movie set in Fargo, North Dakota simply because it is another Northern Great Plains state in the same general region of the country.
24
25	As just a few moments' worth of internet research can handily show, Palin has detractors white-hot enough to be seen from space, yet it seems just as many people love her -- possibly ''because'' she can make left-wingers froth at the mouth without even trying. So please, for the love of God, when discussing her, '''think before you edit'''.
26
27	The PopculturalOsmosis does not seem to be slowing down either, as a reality show about Alaska starred Palin and was [[OverlyNarrowSuperlative TLC's highest-rated premiere]]. Unfortunately, it was not renewed for a second season.
28
29	No relation to Creator/MichaelPalin (though Creator/JohnCleese said she replaced him as "the funniest Palin"). Or ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'', despite the resemblance...

31	----
32	!!Sarah Palin has been portrayed in:
33
34	[[foldercontrol]]
35
36	[[folder:Comic Books]]
37	* In the comic book ''Barack the Barbarian'', which casts all the major players of the '08 election in a ''Franchise/ConanTheBarbarian''-type universe, she appears wearing a {{Stripperific}} outfit.
38	* Creator/AntarcticPress had a field day with her with a number of comics that made fun of her such as ''[[http://www.antarctic-press.com/html/version_01/viewitem.php?id=5544 Sarah Palin Rouge Warrior]]'', ''[[http://www.antarctic-press.com/html/version_01/viewitem.php?id=5651 Steampunk Palin]]'' and ''[[http://www.antarctic-press.com/html/version_01/viewitem.php?id=5661&bk=store.php?id=Sarah+Palin+vs+the+World Sarah Palin vs The World]]'' (''yes'' a parody of Comicbook/ScottPilgrim, go fig), among other parodies and Expies.
39	[[/folder]]
40
41	[[folder:Film]]
42	* The US President in ''Film/IronSky'' is an IronLady expy of Palin.
43	* She's played by Creator/JulianneMoore the {{Creator/HBO}} film ''Film/GameChange'', (based on the book of the same title), which depicts the 2008 election. While the book documents the entire 2008 presidential campaign, the movie adaptation focuses specifically on Palin's selection as [=McCain=]'s running mate. Albeit [[UnreliableNarrator as drawn from sources inside the campaign that were antagonistic to her.]]
44	[[/folder]]
45
46	[[folder:Literature]]
47	* The AlternateHistory novel, ''Literature/ChristianNation'' by Frederic C. Rich, has Palin being president after John [=McCain=] and [[OppressiveStatesOfAmerica America goes downhill from there]].
48	* ''[[Literature/BlackTideRising Strands of Sorrow]]'' features a NoCelebritiesWereHarmed version of her, transplanted from Alaska to Texas, as Vice President of the US, who was forced to bunker up at the FEMA command center by circumstances until being rescued by an unauthorized rescue mission lead by [[LittleMissBadass Faith Smith]].
49	[[/folder]]
50
51	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
52	* ''Real American Stories'' is probably the best known appearance Palin has in media that doesn't involve her being used as the clear butt of a joke. [[{{Irony}} Ironically]], it's also fairly [[SoOKItsAverage average]], with Palin only providing opening narration for stories that FOX already had kicking around the video archives for the past two years. Once people watching the show realized Palin's presence as host didn't automatically make it SoBadItsGood, most stopped paying attention.
53	* Palin's most popular appearance in media is the aforementioned ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' sketch. It defined most of her character traits in media from the point it aired, and PopculturalOsmosis has taken it so thoroughly to heart that some of the scripted lines (spoken by Tina Fey) are assumed to be Palin's real responses in the Couric interview, particularly "[[BeamMeUpScotty I can see Russia from my house!]]"[[note]]Obviously the real Palin never said this, but she did apply similar logic when asked about her foreign policy experience (Alaska is the only state to border Russia).[[/note]]
54	* She hosted a travelogue called ''Sarah Palin's Alaska'', broadcast on Creator/{{TLC}}.
55	* In a DeletedScene from the ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'' episode "The Camel", Tom gives Leslie a copy of Sarah Palin's ''Going Rogue''. Leslie becomes excited when she finds out that she herself is mentioned in the book (the show explains that Palin briefly met Leslie while on the campaign trail) and described in glowing terms. However, when the page goes on to talk about Tom being incredibly sexy, Leslie realizes that it's a prank.
56	* In ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'''s BadFuture, she is President, and apparently decided to bomb Houston.
57	* She appears in ''Series/IditarodTheToughestRaceOnEarth'', because at the time she was still the governor of Alaska and overseeing the ceremonial start of the 2008 Iditarod. Rather unusually, this was before [[RetroactiveRecognition she became famous across the country.]]
58	* Creator/BruceWillis appeared on ''Series/TheLateShowWithDavidLetterman'' in November 2008 dressed as Palin while plugging his new movie Film/WhatJustHappened. According to [[https://www.ddy.com/dl2008.html DDY's Late Show Fan Page,]] the skit "has the stagehands bring out his turkey cooker. It isn't long before he has the Salmonella-ridden turkey carcass on Dave's desk, pulling out an assortment of wacky items from where the guts were once located" (interestingly, no video of the sketch is available but is alluded to as having taken place by Letterman following the commercial break and before musical guest Sia sings [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upMuEJotl5w Soon We'll Be Found.]]).
59	* Another pre-fame appearance: In June 2007, ''Series/TheLateLateShowWithCraigFerguson'' had an ongoing bit where Creator/CraigFerguson asked U.S. state governors to declare him an "honorary citizen" of their state. On June 22, he aired a pre-recorded video response from Governor Palin, who granted Craig's request while extolling everything her state had to offer. Craig's first thought?
60	-->'''Craig:''' Is it just me, or do you get a kind of [[HotLibrarian naughty librarian]] vibe from the Governor?
61	* ''Series/LateNightWithConanOBrien'' did a skit as part of its ongoing [[https://conanobrien.fandom.com/wiki/NCAA_Football_Mascots NCAA Football Mascots]] characters gag with a young [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/EllieKemper Ellie Kemper]] as Palin fighting an actor playing Biden ([[https://conanobrien.fandom.com/wiki/The_George_Washington_University_%22Sarah_Palin_vs._Joe_Biden_Drunken_Bar_Fight%22 The George Washington University Sarah Palin vs. Joe Biden Drunken Bar Fight]] aired on September 11, 2008).
62	* Palin appeared as a [[spoiler:contestant on ''Series/TheMaskedSinger'' dressed like a bear]].
63	[[/folder]]
64
65	[[folder:Music]]
66	* Music/TheMidnightBeast's {{parody}} of Music/{{Kesha}}'s "[=TiK ToK=]" uses Palin to play on the original's odd [[Music/TheRollingStonesBand Mick Jagger]] line:
67	-->'''Stefan''': Now the girls are lining up because we're pussy sailin' / But we punch them in the mouth if they're not Sarah Palin"
68	* Tom Chapin (Music/HarryChapin's brother) wrote a song about her, called "Go Away, Sarah Palin". As it can be guessed from the title, it's not positive.
69	* Palin appeared in bed with Music/{{Eminem}} in the music video of his 2009 song "We Made You", again played by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Ann Lisa Ann]] from the porn spoof ''Nailin' Palin''.
70	* Palin is referenced in [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Music/ChrisBrown Chris Brown's]] "Till I Die" song with the line "Sippin and I'm faded / Super medicated / Said she wanna check the poll / I said ok Sarah Palin!" and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OwdhRHWcrA music video]] features [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kreayshawn Kreayshawn]] as a stripper version of Palin in an office setting.
71	** The verse is likely a reference to Palin's line "Polls are for strippers and cross-country skiers" first delivered at a September 2011 rally [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w1SA1E2DrY speech]] (half a year before "Till I Die" was released) and which she would continuously repeat as late as 2016 on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaKzsFWuZcg The O'Reilly Factor.]]
72	[[/folder]]
73
74	[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
75	* Wrestling/{{TNA}} had at one point a Knockout who was a Sarah Palin impersonator, called The Governor. She was played by Shannon Claire Spruill aka Wrestling/DaffneyUnger. She debuted in a story arc where Angelina Love and Velvet Sky tried to win her favor, believing she was the real Sarah Palin. Eventually, The Governor, Wrestling/TaylorWilde, and Roxxi Laveaux ambushed the two and beat them up, mocking them for thinking she was actually Sarah Palin.
76	[[/folder]]
77
78	[[folder:Video Games]]
79	* ''{{VideoGame/Mercenaries}} 2'' had {{DLC}} that enabled Palin as a playable character, along with UsefulNotes/BarackObama.
80	* ''VideoGame/NBAJam'' allows both her and Barack Obama as playable characters, keeping with tradition.
81	* ''VideoGame/PlagueInc'': If the American president has to stand down due to ill-health and if ThePlague has the insanity symptom, Spalin will be elected to the take the office. Spalin with then threaten Russia or China with nuclear war depending on the symptoms that the disease has, claiming that it is a bio-weapon of their creation. If the military generals are paralyzed from the disease, Spalin will carry through on the threat and kill everyone in that country.
82	* An expy of her shows up in ''VideoGame/SaintsRowTheThird'' as Senator Monica Hughes. She sets the army on street gangs, but is not prepared to go as far as they would like until [[spoiler:TheDragon stages a terrorist attack, where she will either call them off or authorize the Daedalus which is used in a bid to destroy the entire city.]]
83	* In ''VideoGame/DeadRising3'', Sonya Paddock, the President of the United States, resembles and is meant to be a parody of Palin.
84	[[/folder]]
85
86	[[folder:Webcomics]]
87	* ''Webcomic/{{Sinfest}}'' included a long story arc involving Squigley wearing a beehive hairdo and running for Vice President, calling himself Sarah Piglin.
88	* Appears from time to time as TheRival to Robin [=DeSantos=] in ''Webcomic/{{Shortpacked}}''. Their rivalry came to a head when Robin [[spoiler:shoved [[TheScrappy Faz]] [[AssShove up Palin's ass]]]].
89	* In ''Webcomic/TheUnspeakableVaultOfDoom'' both presidential candidates of 2008 are [[EldritchAbomination the Great Old Ones]] in disguise (Obama is Nyarly (Nyarlathotep), while [=McCain=] is Cthulhoo (guess...)). Sarah Palin is a Shoggie (negative-IQ shoggoth {{Expy}}) in a wig.
90	[[/folder]]
91
92	[[folder:Web Original]]
93	* In ''WebVideo/{{Kickassia}}'', when WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick becomes the Vice President of the titular nation, she starts to dress and talk in a style parodying Palin.
94	* ''Website/CollegeHumor'' has a video where her running for vice president is just a Creator/{{Disney}} movie of a hockey mom (played by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liz_Cackowski Liz Cackowski]]) becoming president called "Head of Skate," ending with a hockey match between her and UsefulNotes/VladimirPutin. This came from an interview where Creator/MattDamon slammed her "hockey mom" persona, saying that her whole story (typical suburban wife and mother sliding up the political ladder to president) sounded like the plot of a bad Disney movie.
95	* ''WebVideo/EpicRapBattlesOfHistory'' pits her (played by [[https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/LisaNova Lisa Donovan aka LisaNova]]) against Music/LadyGaga. Her representation is more or less accurate to her real life self rather than any parody, though a lot of the points mentioned up above about her usual portrayal are referenced.
96	* [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WebVideo/React FineBrothers]] filmed a sketch ([[https://archive.org/details/UC0v-tlzsn0QZwJnkiaUSJVQ/20081001+-+Sarah+Palin+Family+Meeting+-+BLJS9yoHQms.mp4 "Palin Family Meeting"]]) with [[https://en.everybodywiki.com/Mercy_Malick Mercy Malick]] as Sarah Palin. Malick would go on to upload several of her own videos parodying Palin (a series of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wfO8wXn2D4 Bibleside Chat with Sarah Palin]] videos).
97	* Creator/FunnyOrDie filmed two parody videos during the 2008 Presidential election with Creator/GinaGershon as Sarah Palin ([[https://web.archive.org/web/20081025013702/http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/61410aa4ff "Gina Gershon Strips Down Sarah Palin"]] and [[http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/5580bbef82/gina-gershon-does-sarah-palin-2-from-gina-gershon "Gina Gershon Does Sarah Palin 2"]]). A third video was filmed ([[https://funnyordie.com/2011/2/08/17711434/sarah-palin-media-addict/ "Sarah Palin Media Addict"]]) in February 2011 parodying a Washington Post [[https://www.politico.com/story/2011/02/palinland-calls-milbanks-moratorium-a-sham-048687 article]] by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_Milbank Dana Milbank]] calling for media outlets to boycott coverage of Palin.
98	* Jill-Michele Melean (of Series/MadTV1995 fame) filmed a web comedy skit for the (now defunct) [[https://www.youtube.com/c/StopItShow Stop It Show]] with Shawn Pelofsky titled [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpLmNmQS7Ck&t=36s Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin Phone Sex]] (ActingForTwo as both Palin and Bachmann) - which is exactly what it sounds like ... with a much younger actor showing up at the end as Texas Governor (and then-Presidential candidate) Rick Perry to join in for good measure.
99	* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic opened his review of the film ''Film/{{Alaska}}'' with "Sarah Palin is stupid. [[ObligatoryJoke There, I got my Sarah Palin joke out of the way]], let's talk about ''Alaska''."
100	* Music/SeanCombs attained newfound celebrity during the 2008 Presidential election by uploading more than 30 Vlogs - or "Diddy Blogs" - to his [[https://www.youtube.com/@seancombs BadBoyRecords]] [=YouTube=] channel, several of them reacting to John [=McCain's=] selection of Sarah Palin for his running mate ([[https://www.tmz.com/watch/0-7o095f12/ "[=McCain=] is Buggin' the F*** Out!"]]). [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70wGnx_lZio Diddy Blog Post #24]]- in response to Palin's infamous Katie Couric interview - had the rapper crouched under a blanket in a dark room with a flashlight under his face (parodying Film/TheBlairWitchProject), whispering "She scares me..." into the camera ("Boys and girls -- Did you hear her? Did you hear?! John [=McCain=] is 72! Sarah Palin could be the President!"). The Vlogs went the 2000s version of viral, and even scored a [[https://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1854557_1854530_1854527,00.html mention]] in Magazine/TimeMagazine.
101	** This was directly parodied in an early video by [[https://www.youtube.com/sxephil SXEPhil (Philip DeFranco)]] called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b64vYxdLceQ&list=LL&index=557&t=102s Sarah Palin Song! (I Picked a Girl!) BBK#3]] ("Yo Philly Obama Blog! Philly Obama Blog!") which also featured Colette Kati (of [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WebVideo/Shaytards Shaytards]] fame) as a gun-toting Sarah Palin brandishing her own one year-old baby, Emmi Butler, on her hip. The video doubled as a parody of [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WMG/KatyPerry Katy Perry's]] "I Kissed a Girl" song.[[/folder]]
102
103	[[folder:Western Animation]]
104	* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', Chris dates a girl with Down Syndrome who briefly makes reference to her mother being the former governor of Alaska. Notable largely because when Palin herself found about this, she indignantly called it a "kick in the gut" to families with Down Syndrome in general, claiming it to be offensive material, and then tried to claim that she was defending the Down Syndromed actress who read the line. The actress who played the character, who is in her forties, was nonplussed about this criticism, telling Palin to "get a sense of humor," and claimed she [[DontYouDarePityMe didn't need anyone to stand up for her grown-ass self]]. In an open letter the actress later wrote, she accused Sarah Palin of using her Down Syndrome son as a political prop that she carried around "like a loaf of French bread."
105	* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', it is revealed that her quirky image is actually [[ObfuscatingStupidity all an act]], and that she is actually a brilliant British [[SpyCatsuit catsuit-clad]] jewel thief taking part in an unspeakably elaborate heist, along with [=McCain=] and Obama.
106	* In a (non-canon) Christmas Episode of ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' Palin winds up [[spoiler:adopting the Antichrist.]]
107	[[/folder]]
108
109	[[folder:Unsorted]]
110	* And of course, the [[ParallelPornTitles Porn Parody]] "Who's Nailin' Paylin?", using a look-alike actress (Lisa Ann) in the role. In a porn version of the ColbertBump, this also heavily boosted Lisa Ann's career, and led to her appearing as a Sarah Palin lookalike at the 2012 Republican Party national convention in Tampa, Florida. (The real Palin wasn't invited to the 2012 RNC, incidentally.)
111	** And on the gay side, we have ''Getting Levi's Johnson'', which, although primarily focusing Bristol Palin's ex-fiancee, ''also'' features Lisa Ann as "Serra Paylin," dispensing ridiculous advice and commentary to Levi (Chris Steele) between scenes.
112	* There is a lot of fan art of Peggy Hill from ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' as Palin, due to their resemblance.
