2023 What to Watch List Guide

David Andrewsby David Andrews
in Entertainment, Trending
Home Entertainment
Below Deck, Below Deck Adventure, New Episodes Monday on Bravo

We all know the frustrating feeling of scrolling through streaming options and not knowing what to watch. From binge-worthy dramas to feel-good comedies, you won’t be able to watch everything. It can be daunting to find something to watch when there are so many options. Hamptons.com has you covered with suggestions for can’t-miss live TV, new and classic movies, and on-demand streaming!

 

TV SHOWS

Below Deck, Below Deck Adventure, 
Bravo Network | Reality, Maritime

I don’t love reality TV, but I LOVE Below Deck. The show hooks you on multiple levels, delivering all the drama, stress, and indigent “did-they-really-just…” moments I can handle. Unlike some shows that have to engineer “drama,” Below Deck is never stale with combinations of work-based squabbles, dramatic personalities, entitled guests, absurd luxury, and beautiful environments. I love getting to know the personality of each crew member and watching as they grow over the season. New this season, Below Deck Adventure, brings the total series to five: Below Deck, Mediterranean, Down Under, and Sailing. Be sure to check out our interview with Captain Sandy here!

Hacks (3 Seasons, 2021–)
HBO | Comedy, Odd-Couple, Female-led

Looking for the emotionally honest, should-I-cry-or-laugh, raunchy sensibilities of Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s masterful, Fleabag. After a controversial Tweet derails Ava Daniels’ (Hannah Einbinder) career, an up-and-coming comedy writer finds herself as a ghostwriter for Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), an aging comedian living and working in Las Vegas. Characters are over-the-top but made believable by superb performance and exceptional writing. The show crafts something genuine and novel from the relatively straightforward odd couple, fish out of water dynamic. 

Yellowstone (5 Seasons, 2018–)
Paramount Network, MTV | Western, 

Coming back for its 5th season, Yellowstone, starring Kevin Costner, has been the most-watched show on the air. This season begins with rancher John Dutton (Costner) reluctantly winning the  Montana governor’s race. The staggering success of MTV’s Yellowstone is a resounding reminder of how much America lives between the coasts. Featuring beautiful set pieces and stunning cinematography, the show is captivating in its size and scope on its own. Thematically, instead of highlighting change as progress, the show espouses a much more conservative message where the heroes are by conviction and commitment to keeping life the same. As John Dutton says, “I am the opposite of change. I am the wall that change bashes its head against.”

White Lotus (2 Seasons, 2021–)
HBO | Mystery, Travel

After winning many of this year’s Emmy Awards, White Lotus returns for its surprising second season. With an end to the first season that more-or-less closed the door on a follow-up, the show’s return drops most of the original cast; instead, the new season builds on themes and ideas previously established. Returning this season are The White Lotus Resort and murder. While the locale has moved from Hawaii to Sicily, the show echoes important refrains about the nature of luxury tourism, its impact on locals, and the myriad complications that vacation can bring. With such a wide range of cast and characters, you will surely resonate with someone in the show. Beautiful locations and a compelling whodunnit mystery make for great television. 

LIMITED SERIES

Friend of the Family (2022)
Peacock | Drama, True Story, Thriller

Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Few stories on TV are as far-fetched and head-scratching as the events in this Fall’s Peacock Original, Friend of the Family. Based on actual events, the show chronicles the systematic abuse of a family by a charismatic neighbor, menacingly known as “Brother B.” Set in the ’70s, the series seems impossible to believe. Still, Jake Lacy’s amazingly sinister performances bring the show to life. Masterful set pieces and costumes combined with fantastic acting make this show hard to put down after an episode.

The Watcher (2022)
Netflix | Mystery, Crime

Genuinely unnerving and captivating, this limited series from Netflix was among the most talked-about shows of the Fall. Based on a popular nonfiction article in the New York Magazine, the show follows the lives of a family who moves from New York City into a beautiful dream home in the New Jersey suburbs. While many can relate to having bad neighbors, the harrowing tale of the Brannocks is truly on another level. Expertly edited and paced to keep you guessing and strong lead performances by Naomi Watts and Bobby Cannavale make The Watcher one of the most enjoyable shows of 2022.

DOCUMENTARIES

Our Great National Parks (2022)
Netflix | Nature, Documentary

Barrack Obama’s silky voice and expert narrative skills rival Morgan Freemans, breathing a soothing calm into the series’ breathtaking visuals. Excellent for background visuals to keep the kids engaged and also great for adults to escape the holiday stress with relaxing wildlife scenes. The series’ common refrain is simple and powerful—preserving wild spaces is possible and vital to life on Earth. This message resonated with me more than a shocking reminder of climate change, the positive examples of how much work is already being done at National Parks are positive and affirming. This is the perfect show for a fancy new TV or mornings after a few too many egg nogs.

Ghislain Maxwell: Filthy Rich (2022)
Netflix | Documentary, Expose 

New from Netflix, this captivating expose of the titular Ghislain Maxwell reveals the life and times of the socialite turned-felon. The filmmakers are compassionate in portraying Ghislain’s many victims, and the interviews with those who knew Mawell are honest and reflective. The documentary benefits from well-paced storytelling and editing to establish—not invent— the film’s narrative thesis.

Conversation Starters

The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)
HBO Max | Indie, Adventure, Crime

At times overlooked by the filmmaker Wes Anderson’s more-whimsical titles, The Grand Budapest Hotel is a beautifully intricate pastiche of allegory, despair, and appreciation of beauty. Wes Anderson’s penchant for charming set pieces and ensemble casts shine, despite the decidedly bleak “somewhere-in-the-20th-century” context. The film presents multiple layers of allegory gracefully, with spectacular performances from Ralph Fiennes, Billy Murray, and Tilda Swinton, among others. As Richard Brody of the New Yorker wrote of the film in 2014, “[It’s] about the spiritual heritage and the political force of those long-vanished styles—about the substance of style, not just the style of his Old World characters but also, crucially, Anderson’s own.”

Date Night

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)
Amazon Prime | Romance, Martial Arts

Every time I watch this movie, I get emotional. I will try and speak objectively about what makes it so great, but words do little justice to a film as beautiful, sentimental, and subdued as this. Ang Lee rightfully won Best Director honors at the Oscars for the film. The intricately woven story follows a stolen sword—Green Destiny—across imperial China. The real story is of love and longing, a tale of how easily dreams can go unheard. Stunning action is choreographed with actors on wires that feel equal parts fantastical and realistic. The intimate mix of action and romance is perfect for a date night and invites everyone to break the laws of gravity in this unparalleled epic.

Punch Drunk Love (2002)
Hulu | Quirky, Dark Comedy, Romance

An odd pairing of Adam Sandler, known chiefly for comedic roles, and Paul Thomas Anderson, director of Magnolia and Boogie Nights, create this achingly off-beat, funny, and perplexing film. Precious moments between Sandler and a broken string of supporting characters are jarring and never expected. I love this movie. I can’t speak highly enough of it. I’m not sure writing about the actual story would help promote the film, but it involves extortion, an abandoned mini-piano, and promotional pudding wrappers.

  • Hilary Matt Interiors is a residential design firm started and located in New York City with projects spanning across the country, including in the Hamptons and East End.⁠
⁠
Hilary, principal and founder, is known for a bold aesthetic that is comfortable and livable. She always keeps her clients at the forefront so they can express themselves as individuals through their spaces. After starting out in the fashion industry, Hilary felt a call to interior design where she has been bringing her unique approach and style to every space as the brand continues to grow.⁠
⁠
Hilary spoke more about her background, how each HMI project differs from one another, and why the Hamptons is such a special place to her. She also shared her top 5 interior design tips as inspiration.⁠
⁠
Can you discuss your background and how you got started with interior design?⁠
⁠
HM: I studied business and apparel merchandising. After graduating, my first job was at a women’s contemporary showroom in NYC. I had always loved fashion and wanted to be in the industry. After a year, I realized it wasn’t quite what I expected. I had always been interested in interior design, so I took a leap of faith and accepted a job as an assistant to an interior designer. I was initially nervous to leave fashion, but I figured I could always return. I ended up loving it and worked with her for eight years, learning the ins and outs of the business. I also took classes on weekends and evenings to learn computer programs, scaling, and other essential skills. After leaving that position and having my first son, I started my own company, which has snowballed into what we are today.⁠

  • Comedian Des Bishop took the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center this week and delivered laugh after laugh. A native New Yorker, Des moved to Ireland in his teenage years, which ultimately inspired his start in comedy and a successful career that has spanned three decades.⁠
⁠
His comedy is full of observational humor and nostalgia, whether it be about his many cross-cultural experiences, an ever-changing societal landscape, and his own personal stories growing up. Des brings energy and a unique perspective to every show, evident at his Westhampton show, the place he has spent all his summers since the 90s.⁠
⁠
Des spoke more about his background, how his experiences have shaped his approach to comedy, his connection with the East End, and his WHBPAC show.⁠
⁠
Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you first got into comedy?⁠
⁠
DB: Well, my background is a little complicated, but the quick version is I grew up in Queens, flunked out of St. Francis Prep at 14, and ended up going to Ireland to boarding school in 1990. It was a crazy, life-changing experience, but it definitely saved my education and ultimately inspired a comedy career that in the early days focused a lot on being an outsider looking in. It’s hard to know if I ever would have tried stand-up if I hadn’t been in Ireland. I got sober at 19 and it was a comedian I knew from that world that pushed me to try stand up. Once I got on stage that was all she wrote. I was addicted.⁠
