The episode discusses the potential fourth season of Netflix's Monster anthology series, which is reportedly centering on the infamous Lizzie Borden case. Unlike previous seasons that focused on convicted killers, this new direction will explore the unresolved mystery of Borden, who was acquitted of her parents' murders in 1892. The article analyzes the historical context of the Borden case, its cultural significance, and how this shift could allow Monster to address past criticisms of sensationalism by focusing on nuance, societal perceptions, and psychological depth rather than explicit violence. It also examines the challenges of adapting such an ambiguous story and the broader implications for the series' ethical approach to true crime.
