    As someone who came late to the show, I was intrigued by all the hype it was getting from friends and work colleagues.

    It was a decent show, WAY too long and drawn out for me.

    I won't be watching any more episodes, thats for sure. No interest in it.

    I'm pretty sure the creators have said before there isn't much point in another series about Stephens case until there are major developments and things like these more really slow. So this news seems strange unless they know something we don't or held back a lot (which is speculated) in the fist series.

    I'm sure there is no lack of material out there for a series about a different case.

    I've a feeling they know something is about to happen and that's why they are starting production now.

    What are the chances of the state retrying him?

    Whole thing will collapse now surely?

    Hope he gets mahoosive compensation

    Regardless of whether Steven Avery is guilty or not, no way never should Brendan have been convicted of anything.

    Hope he gets out ASAP and gets ringside seats to WWE.

    Seems like the overturning of his conviction is more based on the actions of his first lawyer and how he was questioned by the detectives rather than "Here's definitive evidence he didn't do it". But still, it's a great move in the right direction.

    Surely this is now grounds for a re-trail for Steven Avery.
    If they think Brendan wasn't involved then the whole story falls apart

    Not saying Stephen is innocent, but there definitely needs to be another trial.

    The burden of proof is on the prosecution
    Not telling a dope that if he guesses the right story everything would be fine

    One of the most bizarre things about the two convictions is that while, for Brendan's trial, the prosecution case was that he and Steven raped and killed the victim together, in Steven's trial the same prosecutor vociferously argued that Steven killed her acting entirely on his own and Brendan's confession wasn't used as evidence. This is apparently perfectly OK under their legal system.

    As long as he isn't set up to avoid a massive payout. Surely that couldn't happen tho eh?!

    If he does I hope it's spread out per year for the rest of his life and managed by a trust fund or something.

    Handing him a large amount of cash would just be bringing trouble his way.

    You mean free him From prison just so he can be controlled some more :)

    I do agree money probably wouldn't be much help but fundamentals in life would be very beneficial to him.

    Absolutely, but I don't believe he has the mental capacity to be able to manage a windfall. Think of all the vultures it would bring around him.

    "If" Brendan were to get a large windfall I'd like to see him move away from his family and that small little town and start fresh somewhere and hire some sort of financial adviser to over see his money.. he genuinely isn't intelligent enough to manage his own money imo
