In their joint press release quote, Ricciardi and Demos said, “We are extremely grateful for the tremendous response to, and support of, the series. The viewers’ interest and attention has ensured that the story is not over, and we are fully committed to continuing to document events as they unfold.”
The first season was filmed over 10 years.
It has been nominated for several Emmys and also for two Television Critics Association awards.
