Janet Jackson.

This is a nice and very informative documentary that I saw in one episode. We see an amazing number of Janet's family and friends being interviewed. Which I guess indicates she had a heavy say in the making of this very complimentary biography piece. However, she does have a real talent, she is very smart and level-headed, and you have to admire her courage and persistence in breaking away from her brother Michael's shadow, and becoming a huge success in her own right. She comes across as a nice person, and very soft spoken and quite shy, which is a welcome change from the cliche of the loud, extrovert rock star. And she's fortunate in having an amazing number of close supporters. Her friends and family do genuinely love and respect her. She's not at all the cliche wasted, bedraggled has-been rock star. It must be said however, that she is incredibly rich, so any claims of hardship have to be put in perspective.

Shows how incredible this woman is. Just phenomenal. Last episode in particular is really touching and makes you want to tear up.

Can't wait to see what else she does.

I love Janet Jackson so I was really looking forward to seeing this. But I came away disappointed in the sterile storytelling and lack of music.

Rene's home videos were interesting to see and I enjoyed the brief interview with Paula Abdul. But where's the music?! The lack of concert footage is astonishing, to the point where you never really get a feeling for Janet as a performer on stage, nor a renewed appreciation for her music. On top of that, the unbelievable number of commercial breaks ensures the story never gets to "breathe" (this would have been better suited for HBO).

By the end, I still couldn't say I really knew or understood who Janet is as a person other than someone who is shy and likes her privacy.

Truly one of the biggest icons in our history. Seeing and hearing her tell her own story is brilliant. She I'd one strong M For that's for sure. This is a must see!

Loved watching all the old footage of her family when they were young. Have always loved Janet, she is my Favorite Jackson. I still remember her on Good Times as Penny.

Was interesting to see her talk more openly and candidly about her father and her past marriages and her decision to move her career forward without her Father. Best Decision she could have MADE!!

Pissed me off to see that dummy MTV VJ interviewing her and asking her stupid questions about Michael. The interview was supposed to be about her and her New Album and her Amazing Break through with her career. You could see she was annoyed, but Janet is always so sweet in her interviews despite the idiots who ask her stupid questions. Good God, these people made it 100 times harder for her to climb out of her Brother's Shadow. :(

She's a lovely and Amazing talent and I can't wait to watch the next 2 episodes.
