I still feel bad that the older brothers weren't allowed to go in the direction they wanted. Who's to say they wouldn't have done just as well with their music as Donny did?
To answer myCeltic Heaven, Merrill was the first to marry in 1973, Alan in 1974, Wayne also in 1974, and Jay in 1987. Merrill and his wife did marry in the Salt Lake Temple. The wedding pictures were taken somewhere else, probably at the reception site, the usual custom for Mormon weddings, although some are usually taken outside the temple.
I think that Alan was the First then Merrill, Then Wayne. I think that Jay was The "Last" to Marry at Thirty Seven whose First Bride Kandilyn was only Twenty.
I would hardly say they were "fairly chubby" Jimmy probably was in real life but they were all relatively skinny. I know Marie was over the top skinny but I would hardly say they were big.
I was trying to remember too (I thought I remembered reading it once on a website but I can't find it-the "2nd Generation" kids must all be relatively close in age) I know that like Donny and Jay's kids are all 1980s mostly. Were most of Alan, Wayne and Merrill's kids 1970s years. I am Don Osmond or David Osmond's age (either one) and it surprised me when I read about Alan's kids' age that there isn't as much of a range as I thought between just those two boys' (donny and alan)
The actor playing Merrill looks like him, George looked like this guy, but George was better looking. None of the others look like the real ones, but it would be hard to find people who could act as well as look like the real ones. At least the actors are all really good looking, as the real Osmonds were good looking.
Also, Merrill didn't wear a tux, he wore a dark suit when he got married. I haven't see American Dream so don't know about the suits, but they are pretty dreadful though lol.
This movie follows the Osmonds from slightly before their hey-day and up to a few years after the Donny and Marie show was cancelled. The original, performing Osmond brothers had certain age differences between them and there had to be a change of actors to represent the youngest brothers when they were depicted as a few years older. The actor who plays Merrell is too thin. Much was said about Marie's supposed weight but all the brothers were fairly chubby to very chubby.
Curb saw dollar signs with Donny..It certainly isnt the brother's fault that their career got sidetracked..Even Donny knows the brothers got a raw deal... As far as their music not being played today, two of their harder edged songs(Hold Her Tight and Crazy Horses) have been covered by various musicians the last few years..
This was really well done and I think all the actors and actresses did the family justice. I have watched this many times and don’t get tired of it.
Thanks so much. wanting to rewatch this since forever.
Merrill was the first of the singing brothers to marry in 1973. Alan was the second and Wayne the 3rd. They both married in 1974.
I still feel bad that the older brothers weren't allowed to go in the direction they wanted. Who's to say they wouldn't have done just as well with their music as Donny did?
Holy moly they are almost 40 years together. Donny and Debbie are 40 in 2019.

Thank you Ashely
I think life just took them that way more than they played 2nd fiddle to donny!!

I think the kid playing Jimmy was actually singing and not lip syncing here.

I had a big smile at 9:00 where Jimmy was standing on a box to reach the mic
I would hardly say they were "fairly chubby" Jimmy probably was in real life but they were all relatively skinny. I know Marie was over the top skinny but I would hardly say they were big.
Yes Ashely
Donny got me
I love you Donny
It seems to me that Jimmy was a lot older than the actor in the movie, I believe that Jimmy was about 12 years old when he was on "Donny and Marie".
