A&E Channel announces new reality show


A new reality TV series is coming our way according to the A&E channel. Who will is be starring? Well, you'll never guess. The Jackson Brothers.


The New York Times said A&E has confirmed it ordered the show, but added it is still working out the details with the program's production company, Point 7 Entertainment.

No details have been given to the format or when it will air. According to the Times, the series idea has grown out of the one-hour special about the brothers that A&E had planned prior to Jackson's untimely death

The channel reportedly started taping footage last January of Jermaine, Jackie, Marlon, Randy and Tito Jackson as they prepared for a possible musical reunion.

Executive producer Jodi Gomes said Tuesday the expanded series would focus on the Jackson's "as they reunite as brothers, obviously, underneath a cloud of tragedy."

"To anybody that says the family is capitalizing on Michael's death, it will be evident in the first episode that that's not true," Gomes said, noting most of Michael's kin have not talked about him publicly since he died.

WHAT? Are you kidding me? LaToya has done an interview and Jermaine has been traveling the talk show circuit collecting check after check for his interviews. I personal think it is sad that most of the family members are actually cashing in on the death of their family member.
