Only days after one of the most captivating criminal trials in decades comes to a close, MSNBC will broadcast the U.S. premiere of "Michael Jackson and The Doctor," the untold inside story of the Dr. Conrad Murray trial. The must-see program chronicles the trial from the points of view of Murray and his defense team, giving an exclusive look into the past two years of Murray's life. "Michael Jackson and The Doctor" will premiere on MSNBC on Friday, November 11 at 10 PM ET and will air again on Sunday, November 13 at 9 PM ET. An exclusive preview of the documentary will air tomorrow on NBC's "Today."

In "Michael Jackson and the Doctor," Dr. Murray, who chose not to take the stand during the trial, breaks his silence to reveal personal details of his relationship with Michael Jackson, Murray's role within the star's family life, the intense pressures that Jackson felt leading up to his tour and the events of the fateful day that led to Jackson's death on June 25, 2009. October Films spent two years gaining exclusive access to Dr. Conrad Murray and his defense team, led by Ed Chernoff, a Houston-based defense lawyer, and J. Michael Flanagan, a Los Angeles-based defense lawyer.

The documentary gained access into the closed-door meetings with Dr. Murray's defense team both before and during the trial, giving a look into their strategy and how they pieced the case together.
