CONFIRMED: New episodes of Making a Murderer are coming to Netflix

Excellent news.

It’s hard to think of a single TV show that gripped the world the way Making a Murderer did around Christmas time and the good news for the millions of people who watched it is that there are more episodes on the way. Netflix have confirmed that Executive Producers/Directors, Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos, are in production on new episodes of the Emmy-nominated series. The new instalments will take fans of the series back inside the story of convicted murderer Steven Avery, and his co-defendant, Brendan Dassey, as their respective investigative and legal teams challenge their convictions and the State fights to have the convictions and life sentences upheld. The new episodes will provide an in-depth look at the post-conviction process, as well as the emotional toll the process takes on all involved. The episodes will offer exclusive access to Avery’s new lawyer Kathleen Zellner and Dassey’s legal team, led by Laura Nirider and Steve Drizin, as well as intimate access to the families and characters close to the case. When the new episodes will be available on Netflix has not yet been confirmed, but hey, at least we know they’re on the way, right? Great news.
