Dahmer takes home Best International program at BAFTA TV Awards

Following Evan Peters' victory at the Golden Globe Awards in January for Best Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Television Film, Shirley Hughes, the mother of Dahmer's victim Tony Hughes, voiced her opposition to the show, stating: Evan should have used his acceptance speech to mention the families who are still suffering from Dahmer's crimes, or to say Hollywood should put an end to telling stories about killers and glorifying them.

There's a lot of sick people around the world, and people winning acting roles from playing killers keeps the obsession going and this makes sick people thrive on the fame. It's a shame that people can take our tragedy and make money. The victims never saw a cent. We go through these emotions every day. Tony Hughes is featured in the sixth episode of the series titled "Silenced".

Regrettably, while Netflix has reaped profits from the sorrow endured by these families, audiences worldwide have also been complicit in the same. In light of the renewal of the anthology series for two more seasons and the announcement of a second season for The Watcher, Bela Bajaria, Netflix's head of global TV, shared the following statement: Audiences can't take their eyes off 'Monster' and 'The Watcher.' The creative team of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan on 'Monster' along with Eric Newman on 'The Watcher' are masterful storytellers who captivated audiences all over the world. The back-to-back force of these two series is due to Ryan's distinct original voice which created cultural sensations and we are thrilled to continue telling stories in the 'Monster' and 'Watcher' universes. Netflix renewed Monster as an anthology series, with two further seasons based on the lives of "other monstrous figures" on November of last year.

Netflix's upcoming second season of Monster, titled Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, will feature the infamous murder case of the Menendez brothers, who were convicted in 1996 of the murders of their parents.
