The extraordinary Murdaugh parable has already inspired mutiple dramatizations and docuseries. What sets "Murdaugh: Death in the Family" apart is that it's the first to really embrace Mandy Matney (Brittany Snow) and Liz Farrell (Alicia Kelley), the local reporters behind the smash-hit "Murdaugh Murders Podcast" that brought national attention to the outrageously powerful South Carolina legal dynasty.
Here's how to watch "Murdaugh: Death in the Family" from anywhere with a VPN.
"Murdaugh: Death in the Family" premieres with a triple-header on Wednesday, October 15.
• U.S. — Hulu / Disney Plus Bundle

• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free
To date, 102 grand jury criminal charges and 19 indictments relating to fraud and drug offenses have been brought against Alex Murdaugh (Jason Clarke), who's also facing three separate lawsuits. However, it wasn't until very recently that he was getting away with it all.
Having effectively run a five-county district of southern South Carolina for nigh-on a century, the Murdaughs were above the law — until Matney and Farrell circulated their sordid misdeeds beyond Lowcountry frontiers.
The eight-part series, which also stars Patricia Arquette as Maggie Murdaugh, begins with Paul Murdaugh's (Johnny Berchtold) deadly boat crash of 2019, for so many reasons the ultimate Murdaugh playbook case study, yet also the moment that everything began to unravel. Unlike the transgressions that came before, this one wasn't simply going to go away.
Read on to see how you can watch "Murdaugh: Death in the Family" from anywhere in the world.
