And then we’ll get Michael Jackson: The Years between 2003 – 2006, Michael Jackson: What He Did on Sundays and Michael Jackson: Programmers Argue Over Which Bit of Footage To String Out For More Ratings.
Yep, there’s another Jacko special rushed to schedule, Michael Jackson: The Last Time, this time on Seven.
It is slated for 7:30pm Monday night, as the network did this week.
This one features his last televised concert, reuniting with his brothers on stage as The Jackson 5 for the first time in twenty years.
Once again it bumps the finale of How I Met Your Mother and a repeat of Scrubs, this time to July 13.
Don’t blame it on the sunshine.

i saw this concert when i was a child..i loved it i would sing along and think i love all these songs.
I grew up with michael jacksons music..i will never forget his songs or those dance moves…his music will be foreva..even tho he’s not here to make more…
he will live on!!
RIP michael xoxo
Yay!!! 🙂
I so remember watching this! I was 5 and it was the first time that I actually saw what Michael Jackson looked like! This was so cool! My family taped this and I just watch this over and over again. I wish they showed MoonWalker though because I’ve never seen it but I heard it was amazing too!
I’m so glad that it’s gonna be shown but I’ll also be really sad watching this. They are all singing and dancing together and they look like they are having a great time, having fun and loving finally being together on stage and then we all know that this is never going to happen again with them all together!
But still great job seven! Very proud that you have handled this event with respect unlike channel nine, who aren’t even worth saying anything about!
I remember watching this back when it aired the first time – it was a great concert, can’t wait to see it again. I’m still so shocked about his death, and sad that we will never get to see his “this is it” concert that would have certainly come to Australia… RIP MJ – you’re in a better place now, free from all the feral haters .
i hope any of the networks plays “moonwalker” im dying to watch that again!
Its actually a really good concert. I want to see all his older concert dug out and broadcast too. Some of the best things he did were the in-the-moment Billie Jean routine robot/gravity defi moves. Hee-hoo! Shumonn!
i was wondering why my tivo didn’t tape How i Met Your Mother finale.
It even now available to download on Itunes Austalia.
Might just watch from channel BT
Brace yourself for more Specials.. ‘The life & times of Michael Jackson’ on SkyNews-Australia i understand this weekend..
..and rage will be Airing a Michael Jackson special on August 1st
This will be the first ‘special’ MJ programming I will watch. Not at all interested in ‘what really happened’ when no one knows, but will be interested to watch his concert. Feel sorry for the HIMYM fans though.
I know Seven has a packed schedule right now with no movie nights to bump but why Monday and may HIMYM season final again! Thank god I saw it several weeks ago…
This will be excellent, keep em coming and keep the crap ones away, like last nights CH 9 one, that was disturbing and really stupid!!
I too would rather watch a concert of his than more documentaries on his controversies, we should be remembering him for the talent he was, not his personal life.
Although I do wish Seven could just play out the season final of HIMYM. I’m not going to wait for another 2 weeks before I get the chance to see it, given Seven don’t through in another special of some description.
I’m happy about this. I enjoyed this concert.
Pity Seven was petty enough to rename it.
It’s actually called the Michael Jackson 30th Anniversary Concert.
F*** I hated Ch9 Wednesday special, I couldn’t even finish watching it. Ch10 Wednesday’s was the best so far. Love MJ
A good move, would rather watch his live music performances ahead of scandal analysis
while this is getting a bit too much this should actually be very enjoyable. Looking foward to it.!
Now this is what I’m talking about! A proper Michael Jackson tribute to remember him by his artistic, creative and out of this world talent…Will definitely watch it!
I’m sure this won’t be the last time!
whats worse is the funeral is yet 2 come. Thank god for abc2
I wonder if Ch9 or Ch10 try airing another Michael Jackson special on the same day..
too much!!
but from a ratings point of view it will do better than the comedies. and viewers clearly aren’t tired of them.
Surely it’s time the TV programmers beat it.
sevens website haven’t even undated their tv guide yet.
Yeah, at least it’s not a rehash of footage and clips that we’ve all seen before. It’ll be great to see a concert of his on TV!
Enough is enough. How many more times will tv channels milk this?
At least this one is about the music.
