I think my sister liked both of them, and we all watched the Osmond's TV show when it was on. "Donny & Marie", almost exactly our age, always seemed to enjoy what they were doing, and they played it exactly the right way, stepping out of the limelight and moving on with their lives rather than trying to outdo themselves in order to stay in the game. Even Jackson's act was fairly straightforward until 15 years ago or so, when events started taking place that would make the clueful see rather plainly it was time to get out of public life. If he is able to resolve his current issues, which I seriously doubt, he'd be smart to go recluse again.
