This is life. Audiences can't get enough of it. If it's because their own lives don't match up to the dramatic drama of what they see on television or they crave escapism, one thing is even more apparent during this year's TV fall season: reality is amazing. Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, based on the serial killer and cannibal's (real) life, became the most watched series in Netflix's history. In a short time, it was knocked off its pedestal by The Watcher, another real-life drama based on the lives of a family that migrated to New Jersey, but only to be the victims of a horrific stalker. The more gruesome and sinister the topic is, the more audiences seem to be craving it.
