Do the Palins remind anyone else of the characters on "The Riches"?
The FX show staring Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver is about a family of Grifters. I think it has been cancelled, but it was a quirky comedy about a family of grifters passing as wealthy people while ripping everyone around them off. Every time I hear of a new Palin revelation I think of Minnie Driver. Anyone else?

6. The writer's strike killed it
Because of the strike, they had to cut the second season in half and they threw too many things into the storyline. The whole season seemed rushed - it was a convoluted mess!

4. Add to that Minnie Driver's performance in "Beautiful"
where she played a driven Beauty Queen and you have Palin.
