I've used the term all these months to refer to the Jacksons Family Dynasty as a Reality Show. I just found out it is actually classified at A&E network website as a docu-drama.
POINT 7 ENTERTAINMENT: Executive Producer/Director/Jodi Gomes
The Jack5ons: A Family Dynasty – A&E Networks Docu-Drama Series 2009-2010
Unlike a true documentary, a docu-drama may include staged footage with actors. Depending on the topic, little to no documentary footage may be used. In many cases, docu-dramas may also create entirely staged hypothetical situations. (Jermaine's dream of Michael dying would be a good example
).
And then I remembered seeing TMZs article regarding the case against doc Murray by the DA was also called a docu-drama.

Dr. Conrad Murray's lawyers say the L.A. County District Attorney still hasn't turned over the investigative documents and reports in the death of Michael Jackson ... and they say they smell a rat.
