The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty, a six-hour docu-series broadcast on A&E, chronicles the personal and professional lives of the Jackson brothers as they reunite in the aftermath of the passing of their beloved brother, Michael. Straight from the tabloids to the television, this intimate behind-the-scenes peek into the daily real-life drama that the Jackson brothers experience due to the tabloids documents their relationships with one another, their children, and their wives as they struggle to balance the demands of their professional commitments and celebrity.
Prior to Michael's untimely death, the brothers had planned on celebrating their 40th anniversary with the 'rebirth' of the Jackson Five and a small concert. However, both the preparation and performance become extremely emotional as family members and longtime friends come out to show their support in the wake of tragedy. Primarily shot 'in the moment,' The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty also includes some documentary elements to illuminate key moments of the Jackson's legendary history.
The musical Jackson family, the artists formerly known as the Jackson 5, are way higher on The List than the Lohans, but like the mercifully short-lived Lindsay-less reality series Living Lohan, this six-episode series is informed by the absence of the family's most fascinating and talented member. Family Dynasty was reportedly conceived as a special to commemorate the band of brothers' 40th anniversary and document their plans to record a reunion album and mount a concert, their first since 2001. But tragedy struck in June 2009 with Michael's death.
As the siblings grapple with "creating the new Jackson normal" (insert your own joke here), their record producer asks the key question that is at the heart and soul of Family Dynasty: "How are you going to address that the fifth member, the biggest artist in the world, is not here?" The answer makes for some queasily compelling viewing. The brothers pay lip service to Michael's legacy ("There is no way to replace Michael") while defensively insisting, "Michael's success comes from us." Don't look for much in the way of archival performance footage or actual music. Instead, there is mostly bickering and dithering.
Family Dynasty is rated GP (Guilty Pleasure). It is by turns exploitive, contrived, manipulative, and revealing in a way that the brothers, who served as executive producers, probably did not intend. This should be required viewing for anyone interested in pursuing a career not in music, but in psychiatry.
