Apart from short-living supernovae and similar events, everything you can see with the naked eye is gravitationally bound to us (and all bright objects are in the Milky Way). The expansion of the universe doesn't matter for naked-eye views. The number and brightness distribution of stars depends on the time but I don't have numbers for that.
