WTF? PEOPLE! Anyway I want a second season! I liked the show very much!

It's cool to see the Jackson Family with all their different personalities!
"That's what make it a family"
 
I would love a second season, although I don't think that it will happen since a few brothers will be reluctant to have cameras in their lives again.

You are assuming a lot, aren't you.? The word is HONEST not obsessed. Michael DESERVED a family that had his back. I resent how they used him. Do not get me started on your boy JERMAINE. I have stated before that he is a PHONY. He desperately wants to replace MICHAEL. I am not backing down. So there.!!
Now i will definitely enter THE WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM.

You know nothing about how they USED him. All you have is gossip and soundbites. I supposed you think that using someone only comes from the Jackson brothers. It is impossible that Michael could ever hsave used them or anyone for that matter. Mj was so perfect that he could never have possibly used anyone. Everything he did was done all by his lonesome.
Some of you have gone off the rails since Mj died and just cannot see straight. May god give you strength to seek help before it's too late.

Oh forget that Jermaine has been the one talking against the FBI and police for how they have treated Michael. Forget that Jermaine told Larry King and others that he would give anything, even his life, to have Michael back and that he has been the only Jackson who has said that(someone correct me if I'm wrong).
Michael forgave Jermaine for WTTB, so that meant that Jermaine was sorry. Leave Jermaine alone. He is grieving too. This makes me sick, all the bashing of Jermaine.

MICHELLE, i have no doubt all the JACKSONS loved MICHAEL and will always defend him. That is not an issue.

It bothers me to no end that JERMAINE consistantly puts himself out there as thee JACKSON to represent the family on all things MICHAEL.

A lot of what JERMAINE says and does is meant for the eyes and ears of MJ fans. I think JERMAINE has an agenda. Michelle, he wants to step into MJ'S shoes.

It it is on record that the family did use Michael. You can find it in court docs and the way they treated him over the years. You can defend the family, but you can't just blindly ignore facts just because you don't like them. You also can't justified the family using Michael by saying that he might of had used his family. I really can't see how since most of his family had nothing to offer him.

Also, telling people to seek help because they have an opinion that differ from you is both arrogant and self-righteous. One could say the same of you for blindly worshipping the family and excusing them for everything they do, even when it really is wrong. Btw, people were criticizing that family long before Michael's death, so this is nothing new.

DATSYMAY, please calm down.! I wrongly assumed you loved MICHAEL more than any other JACKSON, and would defend him to the max. My apologies.!!

Personally I think you are ignoring facts - life is more complicated -MJ's family except for LaToya did support him during 93. I will never forget Katherine calling in to Larry King in 93 - she was so emotional. I remember Katherine, Joe, Jermaine & some kids out on the lawn at Hayvenhurst doing an interview defending their son - it was hearatbreaking. I remember Katherine & Jermaine doing an interview on ET, her saying how she read the Bible, etc, Michael was innocent - their emotion was so powerful,so real, it came right thru the TV screen.

I feel his family was instrumental to his acquittal - his mother being there everyday, other family members being there - that means alot to a jury. Jermaine was out there defending MJ right after Bashir's doc. Joe, IMO, knew there was going to be trouble - that is why LaToya did the Larry King Live show before he was ever arrested & Joseph called in - that was carefully planned.

I could link articles about Jermaine defending his brother in his fight against Sony in 2002. Yes he did do WTTB in anger & he paid for that in 92?. Mj was affected by his father etc. Katherine isn't a saint either.

Is this family flawed, sure, but MJ & his family have been treated unfairly by the tabloids & people out to make a buck. Bob Jones apparently (didn't read it) wrote that MJ sabotaged his siblings careers. I don't believe that, but maybe Jones did do that himself so that he could protect his money making machine.

I think Dileo is responsible for the rumors that Marlon works in a grocery store, Randy works in a garage etc.

I do think it is fair to criticise a family member for what you think is wrong, but alot of the criticism IMO is unfair - I guess we can all have our own opinions.
 
WTH?! Must every thread about this turn into Michael vs. the brothers? It's getting beyond ridiculous! Like I've said many times, you don't have to belittle one to big up the other. Lets stop and agree to disagree or the thread is just gonna get closed. And that's a shame, because it shouldn't have to be. Respect each other please. :) Thankyou.

And, this thread is about the offer of another series, can we keep on that topic please? :flowers:

The truth shall set you free. Bless everyones heart on here that think MJ's family did not use him at some point. Other people in show business will thell you how the family uses the star of the family. Fantasia an American Idol winner brother continually uses her and this is the tip of the iceberg(she has a reality show) What makes everyone think the Jacksons are different from her family, my family and any other persons family. All the years I've been following the Jacksons things have been well document by MJ himself and others in the family. So stop saying we are bashing call up the Jacksons and sent a message up to MJ and tell them to stop TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT THEIR OWN FAMILY. I THINK THEY WOULD KNOW WHAT THEIR OWN FAMILY IS LIKE. This is not for you Ramona. Just got carried away.

Honestly, I don't think Marlon's heart is in it. He is a very ambitous and successful business man. This could be his calling. He is very intelligent dealing with properties and development. That is why when the rumors surface about him working in a grocery store I did not believe it. I do believe he owns a grocery store.

Off topic somewhat. Did you know Bob Jones died in I think Sept 2009. I saw on a website of Black People who died with no fanfare.

What, seriously?

Can you give a link because I think a Michael fansite would know about something like that. Especially how some people like to toast cocktails over some people deaths.
 
^^^
Ramona It may have been Sept. 2008 when he passed.

can't the link to work but it is an LA times article. you may be able to google it.

He died in Sept. 20, 2008. Although I think toasting someone's death is creepy, even if Jones was a snake.

OBITUARIES
Bob Jones, 1936 - 2008

Bob Jones, the longtime publicist for Michael Jackson who said he dubbed the singer "the king of pop" and who co-wrote "The Man Behind the Mask," an unauthorized biography critical of the star, has died. He was 72.
Jones, who had quadruple-bypass surgery about 17 years ago, died Sept. 20 at his Los Angeles home, apparently of a heart attack, said his sister, Donna Jones.

I will stay on topic.

I do like the show. I do hope there is a second season. I have always loved MJ best but I like all the Jacksons.
 
I am so happy that you are such a HUGE Jermaine Jackson fan.....I see that you have been a part of this forum for quite sometime....I thought you joined because you were a MICHEAL Jackson fan.....it seems as though you are throwing Michael under the bus here.....I will say this as nice as I can....I love Michael ..not Jermaine....if I want to defend Jermaine I will go on a Jermaine Jackson forum.

dont waste your time with datsmay they were banned from even the most liberal mj boards because of their bashing of mj and blaming him for everything while defending anyone else whos last name is jackson. why they are still entertained on this board i guess is becasue of the lack of mods/admins who know this persons history
 
Come on, I said that's enough now. Can we drop it please?
 
Must have gotten some fairly good ratings if they're offering another season then. I didn't think it would go down that well TBH but that's probably just me, I didn't find it too interesting. I guess it might become more entertaining if they continue with it and they get nearer towards their concert, album or whatever it is they're going to do.

This is the 3rd time you have LIED about me being banned for attacking Michael and I don't know why you need to do that.
YOU were BANNED from THIS board for 2 weeks for attacking Michael when he posepone that first week of show and you went to KOP to cuss the moderators of this board yet I NEVER mentioned it. you need to stop the lies and leave me alone. With L>O>V>E.
 
I just hope the brothers will find it healing to continue the show. But I won't get my hopes up. :( As in the shows, they're probably divided about accepting A&E's offer. :(
 
Whatever they decide to do I'll just back them up on it. The show was very insightful on both their personal lives and their show biz lives. It got some what annoying at times when one brother would act as if everyone was against him but we have to remember that the brother's just lost a brother and they haven't performed together since 2001. If they continue the show than great! I would love to see more of them on how they live day to day and how they get ready for a show. If they don't continue the show than we should just be happy with what insight we did get on the family and let them be as they are all still hurting really badly. I'm not saying we're not because we are but remember it was their brother who passed so now they might just want to say goodbye to the reality series and get back to their busy lives.

ok, on a positive note about the article, I like the show. i think the bros are funny. Jermaine is a little special but he is growing on me. I'm starting to like him better. I hope they do the show for a second season and I hope they come out with a new album. I liked the first song they were singing.

Oh well, I guess we'll see. They just seem like a family that likes to have fun.

Me too! I see alot of Michael in him.

They're really cute and funny. I love the family vibe from the show.

I respect your opinion of the show, but I on the other hand think the show was good. I thought the show was positive and free of all the drama bullcrap that we get with jon and kate plus 8, bad girl clubs, real house wifes and so on. I hope the show continues.

Duly Noted.
 
I was able to watch 2 episodes and to be honest, I was bored to death. I stopped watching because I forgot about it. To be honest there's really nothing there for me when it comes to that show and Jermaine's antics were embarassing to watch.

Anyway, I found it boring.
 
good that the brothers are doing things... saw the show once and thought i would be clamoring to see it each week....but " no"............no Michael .. no spark
