Jackson Brothers Reality Show Will Air On A&E This Fall
Posted on Thu Aug 20, 2009 08:35 AM PDT
Before Michael Jackson passed away on June 25, his brothers filmed an hour long pilot for A&E that was supposed to include a reunion, but Michael died before he could discuss the possibility of appearing on the TV show.
However, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that A&E will go forward with not only the pilot, but several more episodes that show the Jackson brothers coping with Michael’s death, among other things. Though a rep for A&E declined to comment, sources close to the network say the deal for a series isn't done yet, but "the original A&E deal was a pilot with provisions for a series, so it’s going to happen."
Sources add that the pilot will be aired on A&E within the next month, so it should be fascinating to get an inside look at the Jackson family and how they are handling the loss of their brother, who happens to be one of the greatest entertainers that ever lived.
If Jackson hadn't died (and he hadn't agreed to do this show), do you still think the network would have picked it up?

The damned Jackson's will do anything for money! It is sick! I mean sick (not in the good way!)
BARF!! these losers will cash in on ANYTHING!! no wonder MJ did not have much to do with any of them! for the Jackson Family, MJ is truly worth more dead than alive! sick, sick, sick....
Could the Jackson family (brothers) make it any more obvious...they aren't mourning their brother; they're cashing in....Michael's not around to help them out anymore, so they'll just use his death to wrack in the bucks.....what a disgusting family (if that's what you want to call them)....poor Michael...not surprising he wanted nothing to do with them or latoya.....janet was his heart and i see why......
JANET is not involved in this ..it is
true every time they go to court it is
about money..AEG promotional sales ..
merchandising MJ's stuff.. we will never
get rid of them...which station decided
to air this piece of crap so they will
no longer be a talented family but another reality show..
I like these kinds of shows. You get an inside look at the lives of people while gleefully knowing it's all going to come apart at the end, because you already know the ending and they don't.
It sickens me up! Why do they need money so badly when they already have so much? They use the memory of Michael "their beloved little bro" in every possible ways. They use his name and legacy to get anything such as money and publicity. What kind of love is that?!!! I understand why Michael felt so lonely.
way too soon to air that kind of thing. michael have just died! come on!! how come these people don't see, don't understand and don't get that the public is aware of the money they try to get from the loss of michael? it's so obvious. but they don't seem to care that we know. they just don't give a fXXk.
Well,i mean it's good that they are doing that because it was even suppose to be them dealing with MJ's death ANYWAY soooooo i mean heyy i'mma watch it & the only Jackson that have been just crying out for attention & money would be Joe & Latoya
i am very excited to see the jackson family..........i love it so very much.
