First off, remember that crypto account Watcher.Guru getting hacked? Total bummer, but what if… what if the “watcher” narrative, in general, is just a big ol’ distraction? Maybe a way to… I dunno… deflect from something else going on? Conspiracy theory, I know, but hear me out!
Then there’s the show itself. Naomi Watts and Bobby Cannavale are great, sure, but Ryan Murphy? He *loves* to amp things up. I mean, EW even points out the “fact versus fiction” thing. So how much of it is real, and how much is just… *Hollywood-ized*? Honestly, I kinda think they took the basics and ran wild with it.
And those letters? Creepy, no doubt. But think about it. “In control” of the house? Sounds a lil’ *too* perfect for TV. Plus, I saw this thing on Reddit (r/TheWatcher, duh) where people were, like, dissecting every single detail. And honestly? Some of the theories feel more plausible than the actual show plot. Which, like, says something, right?
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a good thriller. But something about “The Watcher” feels… off. Maybe it’s the over-the-top acting, maybe it’s the fact that I know Ryan Murphy can’t resist a good dramatic flourish. OR, MAYBE… it’s because deep down I think that a lot of the hype and drama is kinda fake, or at least, SUPER exaggerated.
