Wow. I wondered what had happened as I was looking forward to seeing Katie what’s her name play Jackie Kennedy.

Perhaps it contained too much of the God’s honest truth.

So there were too many truths. Does working on a film with a conservative like Joel make Greg and Katie conservative?

It isn’t clear that the miniseries won’t be released by a different network. My understanding is that A&E only own the U.S. distribution rights, so you might be able to get a backdoor DVD from Singapore or Shanghai. I got some Tom and Jerry DVDs from Singapore that are not available in the U.S. (Black maid is too black.)

It must have been hard for a couple of Skelators to deal with a bunch of fat bulbous and randy rapist. Not to mention a pack of murdering marauding communist that will ultimatley lose its wealth to the spoiled brats that inherited it all.

Good to see their empire of drugs, rape and murder finally come to an end.

The Kennedy clan and Leftist documentary-maker, Robert Greenwald, have been campaigning to kill this project from the beginning because Joel Surnow (”24” creator) was producing. Greenwald campaigns to kill every project involving the Kennedys for fear the “Camelot” fiction will be soiled.

Yep, but the less I see of the Kennedys; the better it is. They are a closed chapter.

When this was announced. Folks around here were gleeful. However, now that is found to have been because the Kennedy’s stopped it now it is a freedom of the press issue. Really????? Some here are really amazing.

"after viewing the final product in its totality, we have concluded this dramatic interpretation is not a fit for the History brand."

A little too historic for the History channel?

Don't forget that CBS a few years ago was going to show “The Reagan's” and enough of us protested and CBS backed down and it ended on Showtime. I saw a little of it and it was a Liberal Hit Job on Reagan.
That being said enough books and other TV shows have depicted “The Kennedy's” in unfavorable light.
It is way too late, 50 plus years after the fact, to keep any and all the truth from coming out.
Jack Kennedy may have been a Democrat but compared to the ILK Today and I would take him over any these current idiots.

Instead / in addition, there should a one hour drama about her entitlement mentality regarding the vacant Senate seat she pursued.

The Kennedys is still scheduled to be broadcast in Canada on March 6 and will air in foreign countries as well. AETN has allowed producers Asylum Entertainment and Muse Entertainment to shop the miniseries to another U.S. network.

Producers have targeted Showtime, which in 2003 broadcast the controversial presidential project The Reagans after CBS refused to air it.

BTTT
