Dahmer on Dahmer: A Serial Killer Speaks

Twenty-five years ago, Milwaukee resident Jeffrey Dahmer was tried and convicted of 17 gruesome murders, shaking the public's perception of evil to its core.

The shocking nature of his crimes - luring young men into his home, where he drugged, sexually violated, killed and eventually consumed his victims - unmasked a madman walking in the shadows and launched the question: how did a once mild-mannered, handsome young man become one of history's most terrifying and unexpected serial killers?

During his time behind bars, one of the USA's leading investigative journalists, Nancy Glass, secured both exclusive access and the first televised interview with Dahmer, developing a candid relationship in which he divulged the darkest details of his life and crimes.

Dahmer on Dahmer: A Serial Killer Speaks offers a fresh look at the infamous serial killer's life through the eyes of the woman who became his closest confidante.

With new interviews from pivotal figures in the case, the series sheds light on the grizzly and complicated investigation.

Since 16 and Pregnant, and as the original girls of Teen Mom, audiences have watched Amber, Catelynn, Farrah and Maci face young motherhood as they grew up, broke-up, made up and encountered major obstacles to become the young women they are today.

Teen Mom OG gives an unprecedented look into these young mothers' lives and how they're facing the responsibilities of parenthood.

In a first for the Teen Mom franchise, Teen Mom OG breaks the fourth wall, pulling back the curtain to reveal their relationships with the producers and crew, the challenges of raising children on camera, and how life in the public eye has shaped them as parents and people.

In the Season 9 premiere, "Surviving Together": In the midst of COVID, Amber struggles with her long distance relationship with Dimitri when he becomes possessive.

Maci puts her personal feelings aside when Bentley wants to go to therapy with Ryan.

Also, Mackenzie tries to figure out where she stands with Josh, Cheyenne starts something new with an old flame, and Catelynn and Tyler struggle with their decision to send Nova to school.
