A six-part series reportedly was proposed. <br /><br />But the idea did not fly. "We were contacted," a FOX rep told the trade paper. "We're passing." A spokesman for A&E Networks confirmed that the network had also been approached but declined the proposition. <br /><br /><br />More on this story<br />More on this story<br />"We were pitched and we passed," said an ABC spokeswoman. CBS also received a knock on the door, say reports, though no statement came from the network. <br /><br />Meanwhile, CNN welcomed Michael's brother Jermaine Jackson, who said Wednesday that Michael is "at peace" as he rests up from the ordeal of his trial. <br /><br />"Michael is recovering, but it's a time (to) rejoice for the family," Jermaine Jackson said on Larry King Live. "He's at peace and we're very happy." <br /><br />He added that his brother was "sort of not eating." Pressed on the issue, he said his brother "was eating sandwiches and things like that but it was just very tough." <br /><br /><br /><br /> :shock: Same stories has Murray documentaries reality show... Still a mirror to the 2005 trial!
