March 2023 Watch List
To qualify for my Watch List every month, the following has to be something that I've watched that's new to me. It doesn't necessarily have to be a current show, but it can't be reruns or rewatches of something I've already seen. So if I'm including it in this list, it means this month is the first time I've watched it. I'll put "DNF" (Did Not Finish) next to anything that I stopped watching and have no immediate plans to finish.
Movies
 Everything Everywhere All At Once
Leave No Trace
Minions: Rise of Gru
The Purge: Anarchy
Television
 Jack Ryan (Season 2)
The Night Agent (Season 1)
Shrinking (Season 1)
Yellowstone (Season 2)
Other
 Anthony Jeselnik: Fire in the Maternity Ward
Everything I watched this past month was pretty decent. Everything Everywhere All At Once was a lot of fun (although I'm not sure it was Oscars Best Picture caliber), and probably my favorite movie of the month. On the television front, I'm still really enjoying Yellowstone, but Shrinking was pretty charming and The Night Agent was a surprisingly good political/espionage thriller show.
My favorite of the month though had to be Anthony Jeselnik's Netflix comedy special, Fire in the Maternity Ward. If you're not familiar with his particular brand of comedy, it's extremely offensive... but that's kind of the point. He's actually known for his brilliant one-liners, but he accomplishes that by subverting audience expectations and going places they don't expect him to go. In the past month, I've listened to all three of his comedy albums, plus watched this special and I don't think I've laughed so hard in a long time. His humor is definitely NSFW and not for the easily offended... but for everyone else, his comedic timing and ability to come up with deadpan zingers is a real treat, especially for anyone who appreciates good storytelling.
TOP PICK: Anthony Jeselnik: Fire in the Maternity Ward
