Jacksons Showcase Their Reality

The hardest-working has-beens in show business are back with—what else?—a reality series. The Hollywood Reporter has announced that the A&E miniseries “The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty” will debut Dec. 13.

The six-part series features brothers Jackie, Jermaine, Tito and Marlon preparing for a concert tour, minus anyone named Jackson that people would actually pay to see. The official press release says the show “chronicles their lives as they cope with Michael’s drug-induced death in June,” which really means “they look for new ways to grab more of Michael’s money.”

A&E had originally planned this as a documentary special called “The Jacksons,” back when they had hopes of roping the still-living Michael into it. Now they’re making chicken salad out of chicken you-know-what, since most of the surviving Jacksons are behind in their child support. Jermaine is behind about 20 years.
