Bristol Palin: Life’s A Tripp Continues To Bomb In The Ratings
Bristol Palin: Life’s A Tripp continues to get terrible ratings.
The pilot underwhelmed. It was mauled by critics who were unimpressed by favourable editing tricks that attempted to make Bristol Palin sympathetic when, in reality, every protracted tantrum made her less likable and less-relatable.
Episode one got 726,000 viewers and the numbers got worse from there. Episode two and three, the double episodes, got 586,000 and 426,000 viewers respectively. Expect further decline, and don’t expect a second season.
Sarah Palin cameos, talking the young mother into a pointless move thousands of miles away from her support system, subsequently yanking a junior sibling out of school to act as unpaid babysitter. Absent is the ex-boyfriend, Levi Lohnston. According to Johnston’s fiance, that’s because the Palins punished his turning down a cameo by withholding paternal access to toddler Tripp Johnston.
