When I first heard that Whitney Houston's family was doing a reality show, I  shook my head in dismay, jumping to conclusions without seeing a single shot.

But now that I've seen an episode of "The Houstons: On Our Own" (9 tonight, Lifetime), I feel better. I may be judgmental, but I'm also vindicated. This is an awful, awful show, one that's painful to watch and impossible to justify.

The show features Pat Houston, Whitney's sister-in-law and manager; Gary Houston, her older brother; Pat and Gary's daughter Rayah; Cissy Houston, Whitney's mom, and most tragically Bobbi Kristina, Whitney and Bobby Brown's daughter. Nick Gordon, a young man Whitney took in and to whom we learn Bobbi Kristina is now engaged, is also featured.

On tonight's episode of "Oprah's Next Chapter," Oprah interviews family members of the late pop star Whitney Houston, including Whitney's daughter with Bobby Brown, Bobbi Kristina.

Oprah also talks to Whitney’s brother, Gary, and sister-in-law, Patricia. Check out the preview below.

The show airs tonight at 9 p.m. on OWN.

So if you're wanting to get in touch with your inner Whitney Houston and sing the national anthem in front of a crowd -- and really, who isn't? -- here's your chance. The Durham Bulls are holding open auditions for singers to perform the "Star Spangled Banner" at games during the 2012 baseball season. That happens March 10, from 10 a.m. to noon on a first-come-first-served basis.

The rules: Auditioners will have 90 seconds to perform the national anthem, from memory and in a "traditional style." For additional details, contact Andrew Bryda at 919/687-6545 or abryda@durhambulls.com. Meanwhile, the season's opening day is April 5.

The funeral of Whitney Houston will be widely televised on Saturday, and also streamed online.

BET, Centric, CNN, E!, Headline News and MSNBC are among the networks planning to air the funeral live from the New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, N.J.

Oh, Whitney – why, why, why?

There's been some hate surrounding "The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty" (A&E, 9 tonight), and that's a shame.

Yes, it's true Michael was the the star of The Jackson 5/Jacksons, but the brothers aren't hacks.

They could all sing and dance and write; Jermaine was big enough, at one point, to be paired with Whitney Houston to help launch her career.

They just happened to have a brother who was extraordinary.
