An interesting article (at least to me anyway) critical of the series and it's take:
http://stevenavery.org/who-killed-teresa-halbach
For me, the summary of this article is saying that the doc is bad because they don't point the finger at the rest of the Avery family. Instead they point the finger at the people surrounding the victim's personal life, despite only Avery's being on the list of alternative suspects.
Here is a quote:
"
What’s more, the
Making a Murderer team did all this without mentioning that
none of these three men were included on any list of alternative suspects.
All we hear is that Avery’s original defence team was prevented from discussing other possible suspects in court. The filmmakers don’t tell us that those suspects were all related to the Avery clan and the salvage yard and that they included Steven Avery’s brothers, Earl Avery and Charles Avery, his brother-in law Scott Tadych, his nephew Bobby Dassey and — wait for it — Brendan Dassey.
Yes, you read that correctly. All the while
Making a Murderer is building a case that the prosecution of Brendan Dassey as a murderer alongside his uncle is a gross miscarriage of justice,
they neglected to acknowledge that taht Avery’s very competent defence team was also prepared to throw Brendan under the bus. Turns out real life is way more complicated than even a 10-hour documentary."
