If you returned from the holiday break only to be inundated with office chatter and theorizing about Netflix's docuseries Making a Murderer, you're not alone. Many of your friends likely marathoned the series in record time, only taking short breaks to sleep, eat, or see if any interesting new theories had popped up on Reddit since they last checked. But, if you're not a Netflix subscriber, you're probably a) feeling a little left out and b) wondering where to watch Making a Murderer without Netflix.
At this time, the entire 10-episode series is solely available on Netflix. But, the entire first episode can be watched on YouTube — and you'll probably be hooked once you've viewed the premiere. (Yes, it's as addictive as everyone says.) So, after that initial episode it's probably best to invite yourself over to a good friend's house (one who subscribes to Netflix, of course) for a slumber party aka Making a Murderer marathon. Trust me, you won't regret it.
Like Serial and The Jinx, the series has brought the case into the national spotlight and sparked dialogue and action from viewers — so, in many ways, this is still a developing story. As viewers saw in the finale [spoiler alert], both Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey have exhausted their appeals — but both men and their families are still clinging to hope that newly discovered evidence could ultimately exonerate them of Teresa Halbach's murder conviction. And, Dassey's case may be reviewed by a federal judge, which could potentially lead to a new trial. Meanwhile, new theories are springing up all over the web and petitions to free both men have garnered thousands of signatures.
So, if you can't get enough after watching all 10 episodes, there are plenty of places to go for more information and the latest developments in the case. For example, check out Reddit's Making a Murderer page. It's updated constantly and anytime there's breaking news in the case, you can be sure it'll appear in a thread almost instantly. Viewer theories are also abound on the page, as well as thoughtful conversation and debate about all aspects of the case.
There are also three major petitions online calling for a review of the case at WhiteHouse.gov, Change.org, and iPetitions.com. Since this is a state case, not a federal one, Obama doesn't have the power to pardon Avery as people have requested. The iPetitions page, which requests that the Wisconsin Supreme Court review both cases, is likely the most realistic option for those who believe Avery and Dassey are innocent as they claim to be.
And, although Jerome Buting and Dean Strang are no longer Avery's attorneys, they're still in touch with their former client and remain invested in the case. Jerome Buting posts frequent updates on his Twitter page and both Making a Murderer filmmakers, Moira Demos and Laura Ricciardi, have also been active on the social media site. So, it definitely seems like Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey's stories are far from over.
And, if you haven't watched yet — what are you waiting for? Here's the full first episode:

Netflix's new true crime docuseries Making a Murderer has haunting theme music that plays over images of the stark Wisconsin landscape prepares viewers for the series' grim tone. So, what is the opening credits song in Making a Murderer? During the segment, Gustavo Santaolalla is credited for the theme and Kevin Kiner is credited with the score. Both Santaolalla and Kiner have impressive careers creating music for TV and movies and are responsible for the theme song and most of the other music in the 10-part Netflix series.
Santaolalla is a composer and musician from Argentina who has won back-to-back Academy Awards for his scores for Brokeback Mountain and Babel. His IMDb page has him listed as contributing music to the TV showsJane the Virgin on the CW and Hell on Wheels on AMC and he also created the score for the video game 'The Last of Us.'
Kiner is also familiar with composing movies, TV, and video games like Santaolalla, though Kiner has more experience in the latter two mediums. His film work, according to IMDb, includes the movies The Other Side of Heaven and Madison from the early 2000s, and he has contributed to the video games Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and Bond: Goldeneye 007. As for TV, he has worked alongside Santaolalla before with Jane the Virgin and Hell on Wheels — and the Hell on Wheels soundtrack is actually what inspired the Making a Murderer theme song.
While you can listen to most of the music from Making a Murderer on Kiner's website, the song from the opening credits is not included. The actual title for the opening song has also been almost impossible to find online, so it's not surprising that Internet users have taken to Reddit boards to debate the title. Bustle has reached out and is waiting on Netflix to confirm the official name of the song.
But, while the name remains a mystery for now, other information on the credits song has been discovered thanks to Reddit. Many viewers on the site commented on the fact that the song is reminiscent of the theme song from Game of Thrones. But as Redditor AllOfTheD noted, the song really sounds like 'Weak of Heart' from Hell on Wheels' Season 1 soundtrack. The similarities become abundantly clear at 1:52 of 'Weak of Heart.' Listen to both the Hell on Wheels song and the Making a Murderer song below to hear for yourself.
Since both Santaolalla and Kiner worked on Hell on Wheels for AMC, it wouldn't be surprising that they borrowed from their own work. However, according to Reddit user Jaredf920, the producers from Making a Murderer had allegedly requested that the composers tweak the song specifically for Netflix. Jaredf920 claimed he is Jared Forman who worked with Kiner for Making a Murderer and claimed that Kiner adapted the theme at the behest of the producers. He explained that both the theme from Game of Thrones and Making a Murderer are in the key of D minor, which may be the reason for their similar, creepy tones.
If this information still doesn't satisfy your craving for the theme song, you can listen to the show's other songs on Kiner or Forman's websites or rewatch all 10 episodes of Making a Murderer on Netflix. Or if you can't go through the harrowing experience again, you can always turn to music inspired by the series, like the song 'Lake Superior' from Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach's side project The Arcs, though I can't guarantee that it will make you feel any less depressed.
