ABC is set to repeat the Jacko train wreck this coming Monday, in addition to
VH1's airing of the program. From the ABC website (www.abc.com):

"Monday, Feb. 17 8-11 p.m. EST:

• Watch a special re-broadcast of the "Living With Michael Jackson"
documentary."

Isn't it bad enough that they have already wasted so many hours of prime time on
this already? In a sweeps month, I was hoping for something worth watching for a
change.

I guess because it got such high numbers before, is why they are doing
it again. I missed it the first time, so I'll watch. I'm sure Jacko
isn't happy about it's rebroadcast, either.

FWIW: VH1 appears to be showing the version that ITV aired in the UK.
I don't know how much ABC edited the special, beyond the insertion of
Barbara Walters' comments. (I was out the night it was on ABC, and I
haven't gotten around to watching the video recording.) I know ABC's
news releases indicated they intended to keep the editing minimal. But
it's nice to be able to watch a British TV documentary here in the
U.S. as it was actually presented in the UK, for a change.
