Appearing on the July 20 episode of the This Is Gavin Newsom podcast, Murphy, 59, said he began the project with a "predetermined point of view" and, throughout the making of the series and seeing the overwhelming reaction to it, saw that point of view evolve.

In an interview on the podcast “This Is Gavin Newsom,” Ryan Murphy, creator of the Netflix series “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story,” spoke with the Governor of California about the brothers’ reaction following the series’ release.
