Or perhaps, <em>what <\/em>is \u201cThe Watcher\u201d? And how do we make sense of this truly bananas scandal that bitterly divided peaceful, pretty Westfield, New Jersey? And how have Netflix and executive producer Ryan Murphy exactly shaped the material into their hotly anticipated, fictionalized limited series <em>The Watcher<\/em>, starring Bobby Cannavale and Naomi Watts among a fleet of other uber-famous faces? Here\u2019s an explainer to break it all down for you.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"2\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">(Warning: If you don\u2019t know the Watcher story in real life, this has major plot spoilers for the show.)<\/p>\n<h2 data-node-id=\"4\" class=\"body-h2 css-9rq5iq et3p2gv0\"><strong>What is <em>The Watcher<\/em> show about?<em><em><\/em><\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">The Watcher haunted a family in Westfield over several years. In 2014, Derek and Maria Broaddus and their three kids bought their $1.4 million dream home at 657 Boulevard, a historic, gorgeous six-bedroom house. In a charming, albeit heavily white and affluent neighborhood. Before the family had a chance to fully move in, they received the first of what became a series of letters. The envelopes had scrawled handwriting, but the notes themselves were typed with a cursive sign-off: \u201cThe Watcher.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">Creepy enough if you\u2019re new to the block, but the Watcher went on to describe how 657 Boulevard had been important in their family for years, with their grandfather and father watching the manse from a distance.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">\u201cIt is now my time,\u201d the initial letter went on. \u201cDo you know the history of the house? Do you know what lies within the walls of 657 Boulevard? Why are you here? I will find out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">The letters continued in this creepy vein. And got downright threatening, serving as a kind of spirit haunting of the house and referring to the Broadduses\u2019 children as \u201cyoung blood,\u201d brought for the Watcher. The Watcher even correctly ticked off the kids\u2019 names in order of age.<\/p>\n<h2 data-node-id=\"9\" class=\"body-h2 css-9rq5iq et3p2gv0\"><strong>What did the Broadduses do about the Watcher?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-node-id=\"10\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">Derek and Maria went to the local police, and understandably asked them to get to the bottom of the case. But the police could only do so much, and generally resisted going full <em>CSI<\/em>. Even if they did nab the Watcher, the cops pointed out, the creep was unlikely to suffer much in the way of legal consequences. They had unsolved murders on their hands.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"11\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">There were also few hard-hitting clues. The fact that the letters were typed \u2014 and as the Watcher pointed out, hundreds of cars passed the house on Boulevard each day, and a passerby might have picked up a few details about the family \u2014 muddled things.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"12\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">A neighbor in the close vicinity was probably sending the letters, but which one? Everyone seemed to have a motive: Those resentful over the Broadduses\u2019 apparent success, history society-types who hated their renovations to the house, a registered sex offender in the area. Maybe it wasn\u2019t one person at all. <\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"13\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">The police investigated further, circling around a neighbor who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and walked into people\u2019s backyards, but several residents said he was harmless and actually quite sweet. DNA from saliva on the envelope seal reportedly turned out to be from a woman, while most assumed a male perpetrator.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"14\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">Facing the unknown, the Broadduses\u2019 alarm skyrocketed. When word of the Watcher got out, Derek and the rest of Westfield were at odds. Neighbors worried about potential nosediving property values affecting them. Once the family wanted to sell the house, it sat on the market even at a steep discount. The Broadduses were in a precarious financial position. Derek lashed out at other residents with hostile anonymous letters of his own, and filed lawsuits to try to get his money back. Needless to say, in this posh, appearances-obsessed neighborhood, it didn\u2019t go over well.<\/p>\n<h2 data-node-id=\"15\" class=\"body-h2 css-9rq5iq et3p2gv0\"><strong>Who is the Watcher?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-node-id=\"16\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">The identity of the Watcher is the central question of the events, the viral article, and Netflix\u2019s <em>The Watcher<\/em>. But at least in reality, it hasn\u2019t been solved. The letters gradually petered out over years. The Broadduses successfully rented out the house, then finally sold it for just under $1 million, as the author Reeves Wiedeman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/2022\/10\/the-watcher-657-boulevard-update.html\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/2022\/10\/the-watcher-657-boulevard-update.html\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"wrote in his update\" class=\"body-link css-16acfp5 et3p2gv0\"><u>wrote in his update<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"17\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">But theories about the Watcher abound. Many still have their eyes on this or that neighbor. But another popular theory online is that the Broadduses, or at least Derek, orchestrated the scheme all along. Which would really be the ultimate twist, since in that scenario, he would\u2019ve saddled himself with a ton of debt and suburban rivalry with little to show for it, except maybe notoriety? But the Broadduses early on wanted to keep the letters out of the press, hoping for a legal fix. And Derek would probably have to be, well, a certain level of unhinged to arrange all this. He did write some nasty letters to neighbors, but ones who opposed his attempts to turn over the property and move on from a disturbing situation.<\/p>\n<h2 data-node-id=\"18\" class=\"body-h2 css-9rq5iq et3p2gv0\"><strong>How accurate is Netflix\u2019s <\/strong><strong><em>The Watcher<\/em><\/strong><strong>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-node-id=\"19\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">Netflix\u2019s limited series centers on Bobby Cannavale and Naomi Watts as the husband and wife, but names have been changed. The setup is fairly faithful at the very beginning, then subplots are quickly invented out of thin air (which isn\u2019t necessarily bad, but worth knowing if you\u2019re expecting the true-to-life version). In true Ryan Murphy fashion, a story that\u2019s ominous on its own gets layered with flashbacks, seemingly out-of-nowhere side characters (just wait for the jazz singer-turned-private eye), and more horror tropes than were needed. <\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"20\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">Some of this is quite unnerving if campy, as with a pet ferret who reaches a brutal end. But at least in the first couple episodes, it\u2019s nowhere near the gore level of <em>Dahmer<\/em>. The dialogue can get wooden, but the style is sharp. Given Watts\u2019s presence and the too-idyllic suburban setting, it\u2019s hard not to see the connections to the American remake of <em>Funny Games<\/em> also featuring her. <\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"21\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">Speaking of which: Stick around for the acting, with heavyweights popping in for the gleeful spectacle: a phenomenal Jennifer Coolidge as a whispery real estate agent (a character that got her own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/jennifer-coolidge-selling-fake-luxury-150102789.html\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/jennifer-coolidge-selling-fake-luxury-150102789.html\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"fake ads\" class=\"body-link css-16acfp5 et3p2gv0\"><u>fake ads<\/u><\/a> currently plastered around Los Angeles in a promotional stunt), Richard Kind, Margo Martindale, Mia Farrow!<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"22\" class=\"css-18vfmjb et3p2gv0\">The Watcher story is unforgettable once you\u2019ve learned it. Unraveling it seems impossible, at least so far. Netflix\u2019s <em>The Watcher <\/em>isn\u2019t great TV, but it is compulsively watchable. And (who knows!) maybe it\u2019ll finally give us closure Westfield never got.<\/p>\n<div itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" class=\"css-19fnmhf e19xk9rq3\" readability=\"10.941176470588\">\n<p>Paul Schrodt is a freelance writer and editor who also contributes to Esquire, GQ, Money, The Wall Street Journal, and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arriving shortly after Netflix\u2019s Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story became Netflix\u2019s second most popular TV series ever, the streamer is&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9564,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9563","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mens-health","wpcat-8-id"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
