Michael Jackson may have passed, but that doesn’t mean that America’s fascination with him has. Prior to Michael’s death, his brothers had taped a one-hour pilot for A&E that was supposed to have some sort of a reunion with Michael. When Michael refused, A&E didn’t go ahead with the project.
Cut to Michael’s death and America wanting to know everything about him and the Jackson family and we’ve got something that could be a hit. It’s awful to say this, but it’s like Michael’s death is the best thing that has happened to the Jackson brothers’ careers in a long time.
A&E has since approved going forward with the show that will now be more focused on the brothers trying to deal with Michael’s death. From what we know about the Jackson family, then didn’t see much of Michael before his death so the show might be filled with a lot of “If only I’d told him how much I love him” type of things. Plus, if they are going to be following the brothers, chances are that Michael’s children will be making an appearance as they are now in the custody of Michael’s mother.
The pilot episode should be airing within the next month, so we won’t have to wait too long for your dose of Jackson. Also, NBC is apparently looking into doing something with the Jacksons. I have a feeling that once again they are going to rule the television. Maybe we’ll even get to hear about their take on the maybe murder.
