Tonight, Sarah Palin and Co.'s new reality show—Sarah Palin's Alaska—premiered on TLC. It was ridiculous, obviously. So, what better way to celebrate that fact than to show you the five most ridiculous moments from the episode! Watch inside. 
 
 5) Is Rock Climbin' Hard? You Betcha! 
 
 Palin tried to go rock climbing—it didn't turn out so well: 
 
 
 
 
 
 4) The Requisite "Mama Grizzly" Reference 
 
 Palin watched two grizzly bears go at it—and then related it to herself and made a veiled political reference, obviously: 
 
 
 
 
 
 3) (Border) Fence Talk 
 
 Palin lamented the fact that a reporter moved in next door. Worse, this guy is writing a "hit piece" on her! So, Todd built a 14-foot fence to keep him away—and Palin thinks the rest of the country should do the same (to keep out illegal immigrants!): 
 
 
 
 
 
 2) Like Bristol, Like Willow 
 
 Palin's daughter, Willow, had a boy over. Willow and the boy tried to go upstairs together, and Palin didn't like this:

 Until next week! 
 
 [Sarah Palin's Alaska] ||||| Sarah Palin scaled Mount McKinley and ran into a real mama grizzly defending her cubs on the premiere of her reality show, Sarah Palin's Alaska. Watch five of the best moments. 
 
 Alaskan Girl Grit Conquers All 
 
 En route to her successful climb of a "tiny sliver" of Mount McKinley, the highest peak in North America, Sarah Palin runs into a few obstacles. When weather holds her back from landing a small plane on Ruth Glacier, she comes back the next day. Later, she jumps over a dangerous crack in the ice and, finally, the mama grizzly overcomes her fear of heights when rock climbing. Watch as Palin grips America by the heart and shows us how effort is necessary for success. Her trip is about more than just packing family into an RV, it is a rite of passage for Alaskans. Lucky for us, Palin waited for this moment to be on national television. 
 
 Mama Grizzly Is a Valid Term 
 
 The gods of reality television must have been watching over Sarah Palin as she had the gosh darn luck to run into a real mama grizzly caring for her cubs. Palin uses this National Geographic moment to note that the female bears have a "nature that humankind can learn from." And, much like the politically conservative mama grizzlies that the former Alaska governor has been mentoring, this bear shows its cubs how to fend for themselves. Just how the grizzly bear rug in Palin's family room fits into this analogy isn't quite clear, but watching this mama bear fight a papa bear (no relation) is still pretty awesome. 
 
 Good Fences Make Good Neighbors 
 
 Alaska is paradise for Palin. Or at least the Alaska that isn't in the line of sight of the journalist living next door who may or may not be writing a hit piece. So what does the former vice-presidential candidate do to stop her peeping neighbor from his annoying charade of pretending to read and drink tea on his porch? The obvious decision: Get your husband and his buddies to build a 14-foot fence. Of course, it doubles as a perfect blueprint for our nation's borders.
– Sarah Palin's Alaska debuted last night, complete with the inevitable references to mama grizzlies and the fence she built to block her pesky journalist neighbor. Some of the best, funniest, and/or cringe-inducing moments, depending on your POV: The mama bear: Palin, of course, made sure to dole out some wisdom about her favorite animal. Female bears have a "nature that humankind can learn from," especially when it comes to caring for their cubs and doing "anything and everything, laying down her life for her kids." Rock climbing: Turns out Palin isn't good at all outdoorsy activities. Her rock climbing expedition appears to be fairly difficult for her, although she does find time to joke—when someone points out that she always wanted to be a rock climber—"Was it a rock climber or rock star?" The fence: Todd bemoans the fact that next-door neighbor Joe McGinniss is writing a "hit piece" on his wife—but fortunately for us, it gives Sarah a chance to discuss the 14-foot fence they built and note that some might look at it and say, "Oh, this is what we need to do to secure our nation's border."
