The following article contains spoilers for Monsters: The Lyle And Erik Menéndez Story. If you've yet to watch the series, or at least its first episode, please exercise caution. Ryan Murphy’s Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menéndez Story arrived on the 2024 TV schedule and was immediately met with controversy for its depiction of the two brothers convicted of murdering their parents more than 30 years ago.

While it was at the #1 spot in Netflix’s top 10 list for over a week, it has now been dethroned by a new, far better series, the romantic comedy Nobody Wants This.

Ryan Murphy's Monsters elicited a divided response about how Erik Menéndez and Lyle Menéndez's murder trial was portrayed in the Netflix series — but it isn't the only show that covers the controversial case.
