34 gripping true crime docuseries on Netflix

Making a Murderer

Making a Murderer is one of the biggest docuseries Netflix has ever put out and the stirring tale the program tells shook the nation. The series has been widely regarded as a must-watch affair and is Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.

Steven Avery is the main focus of Making a Murderer. In the ‘80s, he was wrongfully accused and convicted of a crime he didn’t commit. When Avery was finally released from prison in 2003, he had a million-dollar payday waiting for him if he was successful in his lawsuit against the community that put him away, which would have been devastating for Manitowoc County.

But then a woman is killed, and Avery is the last person who saw her alive. So the big question the captivating documentary series asks is, did he commit a horrible crime with his nephew or did the authorities set him up to avoid losing all that money and their pride to a man they looked down upon in disdain?

Making a Murderer presents some very compelling evidence that even the most doubtful naysayer cannot ignore, and the Netflix show is chock full of jaw-dropping revelations that will keep viewers hooked until the very end. The four-time Emmy-winning docuseries has two seasons with ten episodes for each, all coming in at around forty-seven to seventy-seven minutes in length.
