At the time of their murder in 1998 and subsequent indictment in 1993, their court case became a national sensation with every prosecutorial argument and defence televised like a reality show. Now, as both Menendez brothers currently serve life sentences without the possibility of parole in the same San Diego correctional centre, Ryan Murphy is once again bringing their tale to the small screen.

In September 2024, the story of the Menendez brothers gets the Ryan Murphy treatment. If there is one thing we know about Murphy and true crime, it's that he always finds a way to pull out the most interesting, polarizing threads. A teaser trailer that dropped in August 2024 ended with the actors who play Erik and Lyle, lovingly embracing and covered in blood.

Longtime Law & Order fans are excited TV fan favorite Maura Tierney is joining the crime drama — and the actor she’s replacing isn’t holding a grudge about the switch. Camryn Manheim, 63, has played the precinct lieutenant for three seasons, ever since the iconic show was rebooted in 2021. Although the Practice alum announced she was leaving by choice after the most recent season wrapped in May, reports later surfaced Law & Order producers had axed her, leaving Maura, 59, with the queasy feeling she was stealing someone’s job.

With former Chief Eamonn Walker's emotional exit as a series regular and the introduction of Dermot Mulroney's Fire Chief Dom Pascal, so much uncertainty is in the air. Throw in some high-stakes rescue missions, relationship plot lines, and a secret brother (!), and you have one of the most-anticipated seasons of Chicago Fire in recent memory.
