Looks like an all-new reality show will be coming to Lifetime this Friday (the same day that Janet Jackson album releases) and this one looks interesting for sure. The Jacksons are definitely music royalty and now the families third generation is stepping into the spotlight.
The Jacksons: Next Generation is Lifetime’s new reality series that focus on Taj, Taryll and TJ, the sons of Tito Jackson from the legendary group, The Jackson 5. Also known as their music group name 3T, the show focuses on what it’s like growing up a Jackson and all that comes with the name, all while trying to live up to the families legacy.
According to the shows description, “Still impacted by the loss of their mother, Dee Dee, the brothers are raising their children and managing the day-to-day tasks within their families, just like everyone else. Their quest for normalcy, however, often collides head-on with the good and bad of living with one of history’s most renowned last names.”
The Jacksons: Next Generation premieres Friday night at 10pm on Lifetime.
Will you guys be checking it out?

I just find that these boys are coddled and isolated. There in another world. They are in their 30’s not working so how are they surviving and paying the bills.
These boys really have no ambition. They have a roof over their head and are well taken care of. They aren’t really interested in doing this. TJ has 4 kids. I think 3 have started school yet only he needs to stay home for the younger one who have a hearing issue. To me that is not life threatening. Yet he uses the excuse of his kids to not pursue a career. If you don’t have to and Michael has been taking care of you since his mother was killed because of “Michael”. I really don’t see they wanting to do anything.
TJ is taking care of Michael’s three kids and living with his grandmother where everything is basically taken care of. He has no ambition to really work all day and all night in a studio and tour.
Their focus and work ethic is lacking when all they are concerned about is how long it’s going to take to do a song. They don’t want to work hard. I guess starting the group was a theme to get lifetime to invest in them.
So Taj mentioned doing a documentary, yet the subject is Michael. They all need to find careers outside of the Michael Jackson Brand. Yet as long as they don’t have to, they seem like they are putting in as little effort as they can to appease their Pops. It’s a shame no one encouraged them in pursuing other careers outside of the entertainment industry.
I won’t be watching again. I am sure there will be a few that maybe a lot of people angry about how entitled they are. Also they don’t put much effort into anything. Hey they will string us along enough to maybe get a second season to pay the two brothers who aren’t taking care of Michael’s three children.
