1.    TLC’s Michael Jackson Kids Hidden Lives June 20th 2009: Little has been known about Jackson’s kids but through candid interviews with family and friends, TLC paints a portrait of three refreshingly normal and grounded children with extraordinary childhoods. The special also shares how the children have fared since losing their father and how each of them continues to carry on his legacy. From reading lessons integrated into meals, play dates with neighbors and child-proofing the home, it is extraordinary to see how much of a hands-on, caring father Jackson really was. It has been a year this month since the legendary icon passed away, but the special shows that through his three children, his legacy as a superstar and father will continue on.
2.    CNN Michael Jackson: The Final Days 6/25/10: Don Lemon speaks exclusively with friends and family members about Michael. Though he died a year ago, the circumstances surrounding the death of Michael Jackson are still a mix of mystery and contradictions.  CNN anchor Don Lemonunspools the confusing reports still swirling around his death in this  report.

Though he died a year ago, the circumstances surrounding the death of Michael Jackson are still a mix of mystery and contradictions. Lemon’s revealing hour allows viewers to hear directly from Tito and Jermaine Jackson about their last contact with their brother and, how they first learned of their brother’s collapse and death. Lemon begins by pressing music producer Rodney Jerkins about reports that Jackson was too physically frail to fulfill his nine month, 50-performance THIS IS IT! engagement in London. 

Lemon also confirms with concert promoter Randy Phillips, CEO of AEG Live, that Jackson had missed several rehearsals in the run up to the tour. Though they had some doubts about Jackson’s ability to manage the grueling rehearsal and performance schedule, musical director Michael Bearden, and concert tour choreographer Travis Payne, insist Jackson’s dancing and voice were both strong, that his mood was optimistic – and that Jackson’s stamina surpassed that of the dancers preparing to tour with him, many of whom were half his age.

Jermaine Jackson, who says he was unaware of the extent of his brother’s alleged drug use that other family members and friends have described, tells Lemon that there was a conspiracy to kill his brother.  When Lemon asks Jermaine Jackson directly about the culpability of Michael Jackson’s last physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, who is currently standing trial accused of involuntary manslaughter, Jermaine Jackson responds with: “I think he [Dr. Murray] know[s] the players.  And I think if you squeeze his hand hard enough, he would say.”Celebrity biographer J. Randy Tamborelli tells Lemon that Jackson may have been using the anesthetic drug Propofol as long as 5 or 6 years ago.  “Acute propofol intoxication,” among other conditions, is indicated as the immediate cause of death on the medical report from the Los Angeles Coroner’s Department.  Jackson friend Dr. Deepak Chopra has confirmed knowledge of Jackson’s extended use of prescription drugs. Lemon’s documentary ends with intimate reflections from Tito and Jermaine Jackson on the family’s mourning of the loss of their beloved brother, son, and friend.
