This will be must-see TV for fans who couldn’t get enough of Netflix’s Making A Murderer.
Steven Avery will feature on two episodes of Dr. Phil with his new fiancee, Lynn Hartman, whom he intends to marry upon his release from prison.
The daytime talk show is to give over two episodes to Avery’s controversial case, airing next Monday and Tuesday (October 3 – 4 in the US). Avery will phone in to the discussion from prison to talk to host Dr. Phil McGraw. Hartman will be in studio with the host.

Avery is currently serving a life sentence for murder, but will have been heartened by the recent decision to overturn the conviction of his nephew Brendan Dassey, who had been in prison for the same crime. Dassey will be released from prison some time before the year is out.
The episodes have already been filmed, and when asked about Dassey’s case, Avery said: “The truth is coming out and sooner or later all the truth will come out.”
