>> larry: good evening, we welcome jermaine, jackie, tito, and marlon jackson. the brother's new reality series, "the jacksons: a family dynasty" premieres on a&e this sunday night, december 13th. the only member of the jackson five not here is brother michael. five months, hard to believe so quick, five months since he died. first, jermaine, where's randy? >> randy's probably in monaco, where we should be right now. >> larry: did he not want to be -- is there any reason he isn't a part of this reality show? >> well, he's still taking care of things with the estate and still just being randy. he's welcome. we love him. >> he elected not to participate, so we respect his decision. but he's still our brother and there's -- >> larry: might, tito, he make an appearance down the line? >> i'm hoping he would make an appearance.

he's with us on the music and the records and all those things. he's a little shy about the camera thing. >> he says he's going to make some personal appearances, but we're waiting for that to happen. >> larry: all right. how are you all -- it's five months. does it seem like five months, marlon? >> no, it doesn't seem like five months. the thing about it is, i think for myself, and i can only speak for myself, i'm learning to deal with my brother's passing. and every day i say to myself, i can't believe that my brother's not here. >> larry: where were you when he died? >> i actually was in georgia when he had passed. >> larry: and they phoned you? >> actually, no. actually, i got a phone call from a friend of mine who said, is your brother all right? i said, what are you talking about? he was rushed to the hospital. as i was calling my brothers, calling my mom, my daughter downstairs said, dad, uncle michael's dead. >> larry: that had to be unbelievable, right? >> that was unbelievable. >> larry: where were you, tito? >> actually, i was at home doing

some work and one of my sons had called me and asked me, was it true what we're hearing about uncle michael. i said, what is it that you're hearing? he said that they just rushed him to the hospital. so i immediately tried to tune into "cnn headline news" and had learned that on my way, i called my mom and she said, you guys better get down here. so on the way there, janet had called me and said, tito, are you driving? i said, yes, i am. she said, pull over. and when she said that, i knew something was drastically wrong. and i pulled over and she broke the bad news to me. >> larry: jackie, how'd you learn? >> i was at the venetian hotel with jermaine's two kids, shopping. i was just looking at a monitor where michael shops and buys all his luggage and things like that and souvenirs. and we were just looking at it, and all of a sudden, someone passing said, michael jackson died -- or someone passing me said that. and i said, no way.

soy walked outside and i got a phone call from my mom. and she told me, it's true. >> larry: and jermaine, i know we've asked you before, but just for the benefit of those who didn't see it, where were you? >> well, my first -- i was on the other side of pasadena. my first phone call was you guys. >> larry: you found out from cnn? >> i found out from cnn. and i just said, i'm going to call my mother right away. so i called my mother, she said she was on her way to the hospital. within 45 minutes passed, janet -- i spoke to janet and i spoke to our attorney, joe katz, and the next thing i knew, and i called my mother back, and to hear her voice, she was at the hospital, and she said, he's dead. just a horrible tone in her voice. >> larry: were you all very close, jackie? >> yes, we were very close. despite michael travels a lot and he does his own thing, but we're all close. very close. >> larry: and despite his fame, tito, there was no jealousy or anything?

>> none, whatsoever. because we're all brothers and we all reared together. >> it was the jackson five platform that launched all the individual careers. michael's, janet's, ours. it was the jackson five. >> i think what people don't understand, the camaraderie amongst the brothers began back in the early '60s when we began to -- before we came to motown, traveling to the apollo, new new york in the volg volkswagen van, the ford truck with our equipment, and there was a bond that was born amongst the brothers at that time. because we were all trying to make it, you know, striving, trying to make things happen. >> larry: we'll ask you about the reality series in a moment, but as any fan of the jackson five knows, the group left motown for cbs and that was in 1976. except for jermaine, he stayed at motown. here's a clip from "the jacksons: a family dynasty," it's going to premiere next sunday, about that breakup. watch.

>> the reason why i stayed -- the reason -- this really hurts. >> don't worry about it. >> the reason why i stayed in motown, because motown introduced us to the world as the jackson five and to be told that you can go to cbs and we're going to make you like the beatles, we're the jackson five, and that's all i wanted. so the fact that we started there, just to belong to where we started. >> when you came back to the group, it was one of the best, favorable memories of my life. >> really? >> yeah. >> larry: you seem you're still bitter over that, jermaine, or sad.

>> it was sad, because being alone and not knowing where they were and not having that connection and then the fans were like, treating me a bit different by saying, oh, you left the group, we don't want your autograph and that kind of stuff. but the love that i've had for them and they've had for me has never changed. >> larry: how did the brothers -- how did this whole thing come back, jackie, this reality show? whose idea was this? who put it together? >> well, jermaine came to us and said there's a reality show on the table for us. and we didn't know whether we wanted to do it or not, because it's a reality show. we've never done a reality show. >> jackie was very tough. >> larry: you didn't want to do it? >> i didn't want to do it, but jermaine said, this is something we must do. you know, give a chance for the world to see what we do at home. >> larry: what do they do to you? follow you around as a group or individually? >> they do a little bit of both. a little bit of both.

and i told them, it's all fine, as long as they don't catch me coming in and out of the shower. >> larry: you glad you did it, marlon? >> yes, i'm glad. but, as you know, a little bit apprehensive about doing something of this nature, because there's a private side of your life that i strongly feel that the public is not entitled to. and that's not just with our family, that's with any family. so you let them inside your life, but there's a private, private side that -- >> larry: you have control of the edit? >> yes. >> absolutely. >> larry: we'll take a break and come back. lots to talk about. and don't forget, this show will premiere on sunday night, december 13th, on a&e. we'll be right back.

happy birthday, jaept janet -- >> i just got a dog for my birthday -- i got a french bulldog, a female. >> you did? >> yeah. and i'm getting ready to go to the movies with austin. >> oh, okay. well, happy birthday. >> we just wanted to say happy birthday. we love you. >> happy birthday. >> take care. >> love you, janet. >> love you, bye-bye. >> larry: who were you talking to? >> janet. >> that was janet. >> larry: little janet? >> yes. >> larry: by the way, i've got to check on this, how are michael's three kids doing, marlon? >> they're doing great, doing fine. they're doing as best as you can

expect when you lose a parent. that's in any family, you deal with it. but now they're with all the nieces and nephews around there. they're all doing fine. >> larry: you see them a lot? >> oh, yes, every time we go to our mom's house, they're there having fun with the other kids and family. >> larry: how's your mom, jermaine, dealing with all of that? she's not the youngest person in the world to have three little ones around. >> no, but she loves the children being around, because all the kids are there -- we're all there all the time and my kids are there and the rest of the generation, they come by. she loves the noise. it kind of reminds her of when we were young. so she loves it. >> and there's help there too. >> lots of help. >> larry: do they go to school without being bothered, jackie? >> they have home studies there at home. >> larry: they do? >> school is wonderful there. they have great teachers and they learn a lot there. they're having a good time. it's good. >> larry: were the jacksons always a family that got together, kids with kids? >> yes. we got together with my kids,

tito's kids hung out together. >> family day. >> yes, we had family day. so we're no different than any other family. >> larry: and you had a decision to make about this reality series, and you may have been the most hesitant, jackie, of giving up your privacy. i think you were the most hesitant. >> i'm a pretty private person. >> larry: i could tell that. >> yeah. i'm very private, very quiet. i like it that way. i don't like to be in the spotlight, you know, i like to be behind the scenes, more or less. >> larry: so? >> jermaine loves the spotlight. >> no, i don't. >> he loves it. >> though, no, no. >> but that's a good thing. >> larry: needs someone to love it. >> it's a good thing. he is what he is. >> i don't like the spotlight, larry. you know that. the light just finds me. >> see, see! >> larry: you opened your refrigerator those ten minutes. tito, do you get into the swing of it, forget cameras are there? >> pretty much.

after a while, it was a little rough in the beginning, knowing there's a camera, but i'm now pretty used to it. >> larry: how long are you committed to it for? >> i'm sorry? >> larry: how long are you committed to the show? >> we did the five episodes, the five one-hour episodes. >> larry: that's all it's going to be? >> right now. >> larry: what if they want more? >> then we have to sit down and talk. sit down with the brothers. >> back to the drawing board. >> larry: oh, good luck. we've got another clip from "the jacksons: a family dynasty." this deals with the aftermath of michael's death. watch. >> a great experience of carrying my brother and all the brothers carrying him. if i had to carry him for like 100 miles, i would do it, you know. >> whether you're feeling good or bad, you start thinking about that he's not here and it just overwhelms you with sorrow.

>> i don't think people will ever understand the loss of michael as a brother for me versus a pop star. losing a sibling is devastating. >> michael was a bright light that's been shining our whole lives and we don't feel that the light is turned off, we just feel that the light is brighter, really, because the legacy lives on and his spirit is very much alive. >> larry: how many children do you guys have? how many do you have, jermaine? >> ask marlon first. >> jermaine has a nursery. >> larry: how many do you have, marlon? >> i have three kids and two grandkids. >> larry: you're a grandfather? >> yes, i'm a grandfather. >> larry: you look like a kid. you have three. all right. tito? >> three and three grandkids as well. >> larry: jackie? >> two kids. >> larry: jermaine? >> three plus four. >> larry: three plus four, that's seven. seven or five? >> that he know of.

>> larry: so there's 15 kids. do they all get along? >> yes -- our kids? yes. >> larry: randy has kids as well. and randy has kids. >> right. >> larry: there's a lot of jackso jacksons. >> a whole lot of jacksons. >> larry: do a lot of them have talent? >> oh, yes. >> larry: we're going to be hearing from the jacksons forever? >> forever. thank you. >> larry: we'll be back in 60 seconds with the jacksons.

>> of course. that's what you do. those are the things that you do when you love someone. you can't just let them continue on that way. and we did, a few times. we weren't very successful. >> larry: tito, do you think you could have done more? >> well, you would always like to think that you could have done more. and we did all we could. >> larry: did you always know that he had a problem, marlon? >> no. being, you know, with the prescription drugs and doctors that did those things, no, we did not know that. >> larry: were you surprised when you learned it? >> very surprised to find that out. right away, we tried to comfort him and tried to support him on that, but it was kind of difficulty, too. >> larry: any, at all, honestly, jermaine, guilt that you ever say to yourself, we should have done more? >> no. there's no guilt.

i don't like the word "drugs." i think marlon said it best, without the drugs, there were prescriptions that weren't good for him. i just dislike the word "drugs." it's so vague, so broad. there's all types of drugs, but i'll say that michael's in safe keepings now. there was nothing that we could do. >> larry: do you have any anger at the doctors, marlon? must have some, i guess? >> there's an ongoing investigation, ongoing investigation, and until they know exactly what took place. because, yes, i strongly feel that some of these doctors just do things, you know, for the -- for themselves. >> larry, i'm -- i'll just say this. i'm very upset to hear that this doctor is able to go back and practice medicine. >> larry: so far, no charges. >> no charges.

do live shows before this and michael used to do the splits and just do all kinds of things, just spontaneously, right. way back in indiana. >> larry: they've got a museum for him now in gary, indiana. your father, joe, has suggested that michael's death involved foul play. your sister, la toya, voiced a similar opinion. here was la toya on "the view" back in september. >> i thought it was homicide. that he had been murdered. yes, absolutely. michael, continuously told me, latoya, if i die i'm going to be killed, they'll kill me over my publishing. and he was afraid of that. >> larry: what do you make of that, marlon? >> well, i think if you ask each one of the brothers or the sisters their opinion, you might get a different answer for everybody. >> larry: what's yours? >> i want to sit back and let them do the investigation and let them come out exactly what took place. i don't want to form an opinion. and one of the other brothers might have an -- >> larry: do you think la toya may have made an opinion too soon? >> she may have, yes. >> larry: is that the way the family feels about it?

and joe, too, then spoke too soon? >> yes. >> larry: was there jealousy of michael? >> no. >> larry: well, it's logical to think that. >> why? >> a lot of people say that, ask us all the time. when i see my brother doing that, it makes me so proud of him, being one of the biggest artists in the world. breaking all records, the record sales, i'm so proud of him for doing that. that's hard to do, larry. that's hard work. his last name is jackson, right? >> that's right. >> as jermaine stated earlier on the show, the jackson five was the foundation. we worked relentlessly to build this name, to brand this name internationally. and as michael branched off and continued to even take it to another level with the last name, it just continued to brand the name, jackson. so, no, it's like a machine, we're all working together and some pieces just excel beyond

others. >> larry: even when he got jermaine so famous. i mean, he went beyond fame. >> larry, that's our brother. we're happy. he was going to go further. and we were going to be more proud. he was going to go further. absolutely. >> larry: another surprising thing, we were with you the night of the premiere of the film is what that film shows, and anyone who sees it would say this, what a great guy he was. >> he was, larry. >> larry: how encouraging he was of other talent. when that girl was kind of unsure of herself, he never makes her feel bad. >> he hates to hurt people's feelings. always feels love. >> that's who he was. >> who he was. >> larry: and also, pretty bright. marlon, i mean, this was not just a walk in the park. >> right. no. one of the things that the brothers had mentioned is that my mother and my father, at the time, the things that my father put us through as youngsters, we didn't realize -- >> larry: he was rough, right? >> he was rough. but think about it, six boys, you know, and in gary, indiana, where there's gangs and things of that nature. he made sure we stayed busy when he was away. we never realized what he was

doing until we got older. and all those things that took place in gary, indiana, as you get older, you draw back on those things and there's some type of balance in your life. and so, i feel that i'm no different than anybody else of my brothers, and i give my father credit for that. >> larry: were you ever resentful of your father, tito? >> never. because i think my father, he's not -- he didn't just prepare us for music, he prepared us for manhood, for life, and the things that he had us do at a child's age, you know, that was only a short period. but we're adults the rest of our lives. so he prepared me. >> larry: was he rougher on michael than the others, jackie? >> no, he wasn't. he could never catch michael. he was so fast michael goes under the bed and never comes out for about 15 minutes. and he would laugh at him. >> larry: so even though he was not a spare the rod, spoil the child kind of guy, right, you appreciated what he did then for

you? >> absolutely. that's why we're here today. absolutely. we appreciate -- >> it was tough love. that's what it was. >> none of our friends from gary isn't with us today. >> larry: it's a tough town. well said. more from the jacksons after this. gecko: quite impressive, yeah. boss: come a long way, that's for sure. and so have you since you started working here way back when. gecko: ah, i still have nightmares. anncr: geico. 15 minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance. wells fargo has been putting our clients first. according to a leading independent research firm, in 2009, clients rated wells fargo advisors the #1 u.s. investment firm for doing what's best for them. with advisors nearby and nationwide, we're with you when you need advice and planning expertise
