Previously Murphy created Netflix’s Hollywood and Halston as part of the deal, and the creator took some time to bring around the next batch of shows and both of them are finally here. Dahmer and The Watcher were both co-created by Murphy and Ian Brennan. Other Murphy shows like Ratched and The Politician were not a part of this deal, because they are pre-existing shows that were commissioned before the deal came into place.

Their icy welcome quickly turns into a full-blown living hell when ominous letters from someone calling themself “The Watcher” start arriving, terrorizing the Brannocks to their breaking point as the neighborhood’s sinister secrets come spilling out.
