Janet Jackson.

Joe Jackson apology tour out in full force. They let all the physical and emotional abuse go. It's all ok because their father loved them. Terrible message.

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.

I just finished part 1-2 and I'm enjoying how open Janet is about sharing her life story with us. I'm glad she is being so candid because her story is relatable. I even got emotional as she discussed how her first marriage ended. Moreover, she addresses all the questions I ever had about her in this documentary. You rock Janet!

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.

So full disclosure I'm a huge fan so she can do no wrong by me. I really hope this doco brings to lights how interesting and resilient this woman is. One thing I love about Janet is the fact that she flies under the radar at times and marches to her own drum and you see it here. I wish there were some more meat for fans to sink their teeth into.

You get a sense of struggle she has gone through and how she keeps her sweet nature.

We tend to forget the artist that are around today wouldn't be here if it wasn't for likes of Janet and Madonna. What makes the two wildly different is Janet never sold her sexuality. She let her lyrics and melodies do the work. You see the growth from her being a baby to a mother and an icon. Loved it. Wish it was even longer.
