She's the triple threat from the Bronx. From her early grind as a background dancer on In Living Color she went on to launch an acting career which saw her nominated for a Golden Globe for her first lead role all before becoming a platinum-selling recording artist. From a stint as a judge on American Idol to producing her own shows to leading a solo world tour and a record smashing Las Vegas residency it is not a stretch to say Lopez is one of the hardest working people in entertainment and shows no signs of stopping. But Lopez is as famous for what goes on in her life behind the scenes as in front of the camera. Married and divorced three times she has been involved with some of the most famous men on the planet. In some cases those relationships imploded publicly leaving Lopez to pick up the pieces, dust herself off and come right back at the world.

Billboard magazine named her the top-selling Latin artist of the '90s and she was also named Tejano Music Award's Female Vocalist of the Year nine consecutive years. Selena's remarkable ascent to global stardom was tragically cut short in 1995 when she was just 23 years old after she was gunned down by the manager of her own fan club. The 1997 movie Selena tells her remarkable and heartbreaking story and was also the movie that cemented Jennifer Lopez as a leading lady.

The landmark series first premiered more than 50 years ago and has never been off the air since. The first television series to showcase a blended family almost never saw the light of day and in its initial run it was far from a critical or ratings hit. In the years since its cancelation the show has become a global phenomenon with an array of TV and theatrical movies, spin-offs, hit songs and reality shows which have popped up in every decade since The Brady Bunch went off the air all helping to solidify its place in American culture.

| Reelz Adds More New Programming to Its January 2020 Lineup "Chris Watts, Colorado Killer Dad: The Friends Speak" and "Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story" are the latest offerings. | |
| [via press release from Reelz] | |
| REELZ ADDS MORE NEW PROGRAMMING TO ITS JANUARY 2020 LINEUP New Original Special 'Chris Watts, Colorado Killer Dad: The Friends Speak' Premieres Saturday, January 25 at 7pm ET/ 4pm PT U.S. Premiere of 'Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story' on Saturday, January 25 at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT (Albuquerque, NM) Friday, January 3, 2020 - REELZ today announced more new programming for its January 2020 lineup with the new original two-hour special Chris Watts, Colorado Killer Dad: The Friends Speak along with the U.S. premiere of the hour-long documentary Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story*. The story of Chris Watts rattled the nation to its core after it was revealed the Colorado dad murdered his pregnant wife and their two young daughters in the furtherance of an affair. The two-hour original special Chris Watts, Colorado Killer Dad: The Friends Speak takes a fresh look at the infamous case through the first-person accounts of the Watts family friends and neighbors. Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story is the most complete picture yet detailing the 12 year friendship between Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew and is the show that started Prince Andrew's fallout including his disastrous BBC interview which led to his resignation from royal duties. "These shows are strong additions to our already solid January lineup and give viewers insightful looks at the people intertwined with two harrowing real stories," said Steve Cheskin, SVP of Programming at REELZ. "The Watts family story is a senseless tragedy but the people who speak out in our special help us make sense of it all and honor Shanann Watts and the children who were lost. The Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew documentary peels back the veil covering a complex and sinister story about influential people executing shocking abuses of their power." Chris Watts, Colorado Killer Dad: The Friends Speak - New special premieres Saturday, January 25 at 7pm ET/ 4pm PT. Chris and Shanann Watts were by all accounts the perfect couple with two adorable children in Celeste and four-year-old Bella. In 2018 this family was shattered by the disappearance and murder of Shanann and the kids at the hands of Chris himself. How is it possible for something this horrific to happen in the sleepy mountain town of Frederick, Colorado, a small suburb north of Denver? Did Chris simply snap the morning of the murders or was it something much more calculated and sinister? Friends and neighbors of the Watts family come together to unravel the secrets behind this story and share their heart wrenching experiences of navigating the aftermath of the tragedy. Viewers will also see chilling police footage of Chris as he unravels from his distraught family man act during police interrogation and his tearful confession to his own father. Also sharing his experience working on the case is Weld County District Attorney Michael Rourke who examines the relationship between Chris and Shanann Watts leading up to the murders. Chris Watts, Colorado Killer Dad: The Friends Speak is produced by Kinetic Content and Pyramid Pictures. Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story - U.S. Premiere on Saturday, January 25 at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT. Before his untimely and controversial death while in New York's Metropolitan Correctional Center on federal charges for the sex trafficking of minors Jeffrey Epstein was a globetrotting financier with a massive circle of powerful and influential people around him including British royal family member Prince Andrew. But dark secrets swirled around Epstein's life. Now Epstein's victims are fearlessly speaking out and exposing the ruinous details of his 12 year friendship with Prince Andrew along with Epstein's relationship to former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell who is now under FBI investigation over possible crimes linked to charges linked to Epstein. Prince Andrew stands accused of sex with an underage girl trafficked by Epstein and Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story builds up the most complete picture yet of the relationship between Epstein and Prince Andrew with a revealing and detailed look at their shared past. Interviews include private investigator Mike Fisten whose decade long investigation into Epstein's life in Palm Beach, Florida revealed dozens of victims and John Connolly, former NYC police detective turned investigative journalist who worked as a Vanity Fair contributing editor and covered Epstein's mysterious life and who shares his experience of the troubles that followed people who reported on Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein & Prince Andrew: The True Story is produced by BriteSpark Films, distributed by TCB Media Rights. About REELZ - REAL LIVES. REAL STORIES.

They appear normal. But lurking deep within their psyche are the triggers that kick-start their psychopathic behavior. Abusive childhood experiences, trauma as an adult, detectable mental frailty, narcissism and an absence of empathy combine to build up a body of evidence which rings alarm bells for psychologists. By forensically researching the lives of those killers who can't stop killing Inside the Mind of a Serial Killer reveals why they do what they do and how they could have been spotted before committing their awful crimes. With dramatic reconstructions alongside actual footage and interviews with criminologists, journalists, detectives and people intimately involved in the story each episode examines the chilling behavior profiles of serial killers. Inside the Mind of a Serial Killer is produced by FirstLookTV. The Lost Unabomber Tapes (Previously announced) - World premiere of two-part documentary with part one "Campaign of Terror" on Sunday, January 26 at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT and part two "Capture and Conviction" premiering the following night on Monday, January 27 at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT. Ted Kaczynski gave up a promising academic career to carry out mail bombings to express his belief that technology was the true evil of society. The nationwide manhunt for him spanned 17 years from 1978-1995 making it one of the longest and most expensive criminal investigations in FBI history. The tip that led investigators to Kaczynski ultimately came from his younger brother David Kaczynski and David's wife Linda Patrik. Now in a never-before-heard prison interview conducted in 1999 just three months into serving multiple life sentences for killing three people and wounding 23 others, Ted Kaczynski describes in chilling detail the origins and execution of his personal war against society, his disdain for the FBI investigators who tracked him and his hope for modern terrorism. Also being made public for the first time are audio interviews of a then 16 year old Ted Kaczynski, a freshman at Harvard University, participating in a psychological study that experts say was part of a series of controversial experiments financed by the CIA. The Lost Unabomber Tapes also examines Ted Kaczynski's early family life through the eyes of David Kaczynski who relives the heart wrenching dilemma of identifying his brother to authorities and the hope he found in the aftermath by forging a bond with bomb survivor Gary Wright. Sharing their first-hand experiences are retired UNABOM Task Force members FBI Special Agent Joel Moss and FBI Agent Greg Stejskal, San Francisco Chronicle reporter Kevin Fagan who covered the story as it unfolded, academic Theresa Kintz, whose interview with Ted Kaczynski from inside the Supermax prison is heard throughout The Lost Unabomber Tapes and many more*. The Lost Unabomber Tapes is produced by Yap Films. About REELZ - REAL LIVES. REAL STORIES.

In Joan Rivers: Behind Closed Doors host Natalie Morales explores how Rivers became the groundbreaking comedian and entertainer and sheds light on who the real woman was beyond the footlights. Rivers believed that the funniest gags came from truth and her catch phrase "Can we talk?" signaled to audiences she intended to break taboos, tell uncomfortable truths and disregard political correctness. After struggling in her early years on the stand-up club circuit late night TV icon Johnny Carson helped her break out making her a regular on the Tonight Show but when Rivers became the first woman to host a late night talk show on a rival network it permanently estranged her from Carson. After her late night show later failed and her husband committed suicide, Rivers battled back with a popular daytime TV talk show and later became more famous for her caustic stream of consciousness commentary at red carpet Hollywood events. With no qualms about attacking celebrities, including herself, Rivers made the red carpet worth watching.
