The embattled miniseries “The Kennedys” will air on ReelzChannel (for reelz) next month, and the upstart cable channel has released a new trailer that doesn’t give the series any new meaning to me (video below). I guess there’s a little more Jackie Kennedy (Katie Holmes) and RFK (Barry Pepper) in this trailer than in the first one, but my impression is essentially the same: “Yep, those are people dressed as the Kennedys.”
You know what would be way better than this? A bunch of dogs acting out the Kennedys’ lives. Tell me that this corgi wouldn’t make a better Jackie O than Katie Holmes:

8 Parts? For Reelz? What are they 5 minutes each?
Katie Holmes seems less Jackie O and more Minnie Mouse.
I like Barry Pepper. I wish he got better work. I blame Travolta.
Barry Pepper as Dale Sr. FTW
The mini series so bad it was bumped for Larry the Cable Guy
Is it me or does it look like Barry and Kinear are going to double team Holmes in that picture?
