Viacom, parent company of MTV, VH1 and other fine music networks that used to play music videos but don't now, has secured the rights to play the Michael Jackson documentary This Is It on TV starting in 2011. Personally, I can't wait until I can watch a video of a dead guy rehearsing in between episodes of Real Chance at Love season three. The DVD of This Is It is expected out in 2010, long after the wave of Jackson-related nostalgia inevitably crashes. [RS]
