I enjoyed [the first two episodes] in the same way I once enjoyed the original “Law & Order,” as an entertaining but not challenging way to pass some time. Also, amid all the workmanlike performances, Edie Falco is captivating as Leslie Abramson, the defense attorney with trademark blond curls, and Josh Charles is effectively creepy as the morally abhorrent therapist Dr. Jerome Oziel. But The Menendez Murders has very little of the breadth and context that distinguished “American Crime Story.”

The verdict is still out after the first two chapters, which merely seem guilty of dramatic exploitation. [2-15 Oct 2017, p.15]

The scripts, mostly written by L&O veteran Rene Balcer, do a nifty job of carving a clean narrative trail through the usual true-crime cloud of ephemera.
