TV actress Jackee talks about her rise and fall

Jackee wasn’t supposed to steal the show on “227,” the sitcom that made her a star, but she did.

This of course angered the show’s actual star Marla Gibbs but for Jackee, it was a break that helped her win an Emmy. Find out what happened to her after the win and what she’s up to now when the TV One series “Life After” airs at 10 tonight.
