Ryan Murphy defended his Netflix series Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story amid criticism from the real Erik. “I think it’s interesting that he’s issued a statement without having seen the show,” the producer told ET. “If you watch the show, I would say 60 to 65% of our show in the scripts, and in the film form, center around the abuse and what they claim happened to them.” Murphy added: “And we do it very carefully, and we give them their day in court, and they talk openly about it.” The true-crime drama delves into the case of the Menendez brothers, who were convicted for the murders of their parents in 1996 and is currently the No. 1 show on Netflix in the U.S. (THR)
