Just finished watching both season..

Season 1: When you think about it, nothing really happened, until the very end I guess. The use of music was fantastic to communicate the tension and stress; I think the woman who was in charge of the therapy center and befriended Jennifer Coolidge’s character was the only person I actually cared about.

Season 2: Yeah so, someone must have given a note that there was not enough ‘sex’ in the first season. They more than made up for it in season 2…some I could have done without…but it was an interesting plot twist.

Porsche, Ethan and Harper I genuinely cared about. The rest of them for the most part, had no redeeming value; I’ll admit I got fooled by a couple of them…well played.

Loved the cinematography in this season, used great visualization to convey so many emotions. Definitely my favorite season of the 2 and the reason who ended up washing up on the beach, was not the person whom I expected to.

Looking forward to season 3.

I liked both seasons about the same. Good not great TV. Visually, the scenery on a really nice TV was fantastic.

I watched a few episodes of the first season. I thought it might be entertaining. I lasted until they showed the gay concierge with his face buried in another guy's ass.

No thanks. I've got better things to do than watch that trash.

If you didn’t like that scene, I can promise that you’d HATE the similar “type” scene towards the end of Season 2.

White Lotus is back.

Don’t remember much of the previous two seasons but the luxurious hotels.
Wife and i enjoyed the series mostly if you can fast forward the unnecessary outrageous sex scenes.

Looking forward to enjoy Thailand for the extremely wealthy

White Lotus Season 3 had me at Walton Goggins on the cast.

Parker Posey’s “southern accent” is awful in season 3, I don’t know why they just didn’t tell her to use her regular voice or recast the role if she can’t do better.

I remember her from “best in show” and I (obviously) was supposed to not like her- and I just can’t shake that!

She’s grew up in Monroe, LA and Laurel, MS… she knows what she’s doing. I know plenty of people that sound like that. Especially ladies on antidepressants and booze.

Sounds like she is attempting a Carolina accent but it is just missing the mark imo.

I don't have a problem with her accent, it's the English dude playing her husband. I hear his English accent coming out occasionally

See, I think he is spot on a Charleston accent. Mike White had them all watch Southern Charm and he based his accent on Thomas Ravenal.

Obviously, he’s supposed to be from Chapel Hill NC, which his accent doesn’t match, but it’s legit for what it is, imo. I feel like Brits often get southern accents better than non-Southern Americans.

Regardless, I think Parker Posey’s character is hilarious.

The English accent definitely creeps in his dialogue.

So I am thinking Walton Goggins character is going after the Thai ladies husband Scott Glenn. I’m guessing he may have killed his father and may try and kill him.
