Cooper Koch said Erik Menendez intends to watch his one-take 'Monsters' episode titled 'The Hurt Man' despite slamming the series

Season 2 of the hit Netflix series debuted earlier this month and chronicled Lyle ( Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and Erik’s (Koch) 1989 arrest for the murder of their parents, José ( Javier Bardem) and Kitty ( Chloë Sevigny). Taking inspiration from footage of the trial and subsequent interviews, Monsters mirrored key moments from Lyle, 56, and Erik’s lives before and after they were sentenced to life without parole for shooting their mother and father. Episodes 4 and 5 received critical and fan praise for introducing Erik and Lyle’s claims that they killed their parents in self-defense following years of alleged physical, emotional and sexual abuse.
