The Jacksons

Seems like the Jackson’s are cashing in on MJ’s passing.  The brothers stand to make some cash as they’ve gotten their own reality show.

According to radaronline.com, the Jackson brothers filmed a pilot for A&E which called for several episodes and a possible reunion with brother Michael. But with the untimely passing of Michael, the project has reportedly been revived with a changed focus on the remaining brothers as they handle with life after the death of their brother.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, A&E will air the pilot this month with half-hour episodes to follow.

    I don’t want to watch Tito go to work at Taco Bell or something.

    Oh well, I’ll probably watch it but I love the photos of Michael. Wish I could print them all.

    Of course they’re getting their own reality show. Rondolph, Tito seems more like a Popeye’s dude to me lol.

    I agree that this sounds like some attempt to make money off his passing. Funny how they never thought about a show BEFORE he died. Wow, some family members are amazing. This is almost as bad as Keisha Cole and her mom sharing a reality show.

    I heard about the reality show for the Jackson’s before Michael died…So this was already in the works .This has nothing to do with capitalization off there brothers death.

    I don’t see nothing wrong with them getting their own reality show. I don’t think the Brothers themselves are trying to capitalize off Michael’s passing but i think Their father Joe Jackson is because, Those kids were his Bread and Butter, So if anybody’s trying to cash in is Joe Jackson!

    hello you are wrong again they already had filmed some of the show prior to mj passing. And do not forget before there was the King of Pop there has always and still is the Jacksons, The Jackson 5, but last but not least they are still the founding young men of what is now known as young kid groups, boy groups and young talent. So they not only deserve a reality show it is good for everyone to see what they are up to and where they are going. Please I still have a crush on Marlon heehee, sorry just had a lil Micheal left in me.

    Some of you lack reading comprehension skills. This show was in the works long before Michael died. I remember during the summer of 2008 they were talking about a reality show with the Jackson Family. I think Joe Jackson and Jermaine to a small extent want to cash in on MJs death and why does this site block out the word p-a-s-s-i-n-g I guess because therein lies the word a-s-s in the word. I would watch that show just because I always thought the Jackson Family was kind of weird. Rebbie seemed like the only sane one but everybody else including Michael and Janet I thought were a little weird. Should make for a great reality show, would be the first time the brothers would actually get some face time.

    Clearly they are capitalizing on his death with this show. The interest in a show about the Jacksons was very limited until MJ’s passing. It seems like only a pilot episode was even filmed and it was all but dead until MJ died hence the renewed interest in the show.

    these dudes are leeches. period. their whole lives they knew that they were nothing w/o michael, so they used him for $$$, women, fame, to open doors – and so in his death this comes as no surprise.

    Sadly I think Michael’s passing will make the show more of a success considering the brothers have been back in the spotlight of late, but the show was in the works before he died.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/R0ME223/ R0ME223

    1suaveguy and Sub-negro the show was in the works BEFORE MJ died. This isnt some “lets cash in on MJs death” this show has been in the works for a while

    For those who don’t know, they were the the Jackson 5 before Michael Jackson; so In the beginning, I believe they (the Jackson family) were destine to be who they are today. Thanks be to Jehovah God, Allah the beneficent, oh and Joseph for his musical experience.

    STFU TO THE HATERS!!!!!! i know i’ma be watching this show & lovin it

    I think that this is an amazing opportunity for the Jackson Family. The Brothers deserve this time in the spot light to really get out there an paint what was really truth about their brother Micheal. The media has tried for years to damage Micheal image because he has far succeeded every obstacle they have plotted for him. It is great to have someone to represent your name and all that you have done in a positive way before the public eyes of the haters. I’m totally in favor of the Jackson’s reality show because I know it will be done in good taste and morally standards. Hopefully the reality show will also top off many more albums from the Jackson camp. Best of luck guys and remember, (there are bad people out there who want the opportunity to destroy you as they did with Micheal. Do all thing with good taste and don’t fall short to the money put in front of you. This your chance and opportunity to come back, we are counting on you.

    Well, I heard about this some time last year as a matter of fact. If it was in the works before Michael’s death then why stop the show or even the production of any more shows. Now of course someone will have something to say about it and who cares. The Jackson family knows the truth and that is all that matters. I am sure they will incorporate Michael’s passing in the show and how the family is mourning his death. It is ashame when other individuals such as the media feels it is wrong for the Jackson family to capitalize on their brother’s death but any and everybody are all over the television and in magazines telling bogus stories or sharing their experiences they have had with Michael Jackson so what is the diference. There isn’t any difference from what the media is doing to capitalize and tarnish his image. As the article stated it was before Michael’s death so calm down people. If you feel like the Jackson’s are out to capitalize on Michael’s death and it really gets under your skin or disgusts you then don’t watch or turn the channel. Everyone has a choice.

    I always like the Jackson five, Too bad it didn’t air years ago before Michael life got turn upside down just think he might still be here if it had it might have got him close with his brother again, he in a better place now no more bulls**t in his life I said to hell with the media they talk too much so times. RIP MJ

    I’ve always wondered what remy, tito and rufus and cleetus and uh..bonqueesha jackson was up too. YAY. A reality show. Awesome. totally. f**king wack yo.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/helluva1/ helluva1

    this is all they need a reality show, we already know they are money hungry now we will see just how crazy they really are…they couldn’t make it with Michael living and they sure as heck are going to do it now that he is gone….I hope Janet steers clear she seems to be the only one standing on her own….

    Jermaine needs to make some money to get out of bankruptcy and support his children. MJ himself said that his brother Randall had no talent. This will be an interesting reality show.

    IM SORRY BUT NOBODY IS REALLY INTERESTED IN THE JACKSON BROTHER’S LIFE…SO TO ME IT DOES SEEM LIKE THEIR TRYING TO CAPITALIZE OFF OF MICHAEL’S DEATH. VERY SAD!!

    @ blkpuddn, co-sign………………….tha man have NOT been buried YET!!!!!!!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Sub-Negro/ Sub-Negro

    Yes the show has been in the works here an older link from last year. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1583492/The-Jacksons-to-hit-reality-TV—in-Devon.html

    Clearly there was very little interest with the network following through with the show. Now after MJ has passed there is now renewed interest in the show. This pretty much proves that they are trying to capitalize off of his death. It doesn’t take years to bring out a reality show since there is no writers involved with these particular shows.

    Well everybody say’s they’re cashing in on Michael’s,passing well maybe so.But at the same time you’ve got to realize they’re all still living…the entire family.If it had been me I’d want my family to “Get Paid”.Their’s a lot of other companies and people that stand to make a fortune off of all this.So why not let the family be the one’s!!!
