'Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story' and 'American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez' are some of the upcoming TV shows based on true stories
For fans of TV shows based on true events, the fall lineup has several standouts to look forward to that are pulled straight from the headlines.
Hernandez, who is played by Josh Rivera, started his career as a tight end with the University of Florida Gators before his stint with the New England Patriots from 2010 to 2013. Off the football field, Hernandez faced several legal issues before his death. American Sports Story serves as the fourth installment in the American Story franchise. Murphy will be competing against himself because Netflix's Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menéndez Story is also a true crime series from the prolific producer.
The 10-episode limited series, which premieres Tuesday, September 17, tells the story of Hernandez's identity, family, career, legacy in sports and death.
