Netflix's Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story has achieved massive streaming success, pulling in over 1.4 billion minutes watched during its debut week. Created by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, the biographical true-crime drama reimagines the infamous 1892 murder case by highlighting Borden's challenging home life and rumored romance with her housemaid. Despite drawing heavy criticism from viewers and critics for straying from historical accuracy, the controversial series has earned poor approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. Even so, the program follows a long line of successful anthology predecessors that focused on notorious figures like Jeffrey Dahmer and the Menendez brothers. Bolstered by these strong viewership numbers, the creators ultimately hope to expand the franchise to ten total seasons covering numerous other subjects.
