LOS ANGELES - Michael Jackson’s brothers have landed their own series on A&E.

The cable network has confirmed to Access Hollywood that the documentary special that had been originally planned, which focuses on Jackie, Tito, Jermaine and Marlon Jackson, will now be turned into a series.

Earlier this month, A&E spokesperson Dan Silberman confirmed plans for the one-time special, which will serve as the basis for the docu-series.

The interview is scheduled to air on “20/20” on September 11.

Following that, La Toya will also appear alongside Walters as a guest host on “The View” on September 16 and September 18.
