The White Lotus

I really hope she gets some award consideration love. Every single scene she is in is cringeworthy, fun, and full of depth. She's killing it!

I will say from the start this isn't a series for everyone, it's different, there's tons of charecter development, and it's a show I'd find much more enjoyable binge watching then consuming one episode per week.

I've grown to love limited series, immediately there is a start and end point set out from the get go. There's no cliffhangers written with no exact conclusion in mind or series that goes on way past its shelf life. This series is so well done it gives you a definitive, acceptable conclusion that leave little if anything to conclude. It's great when a season of episodes ends and it leaves you begging for more, however it's also great to watch a short series that tells its story while manages to leave no stone on turned and you're satisfied with it's ending and enjoyed it. In a lot of ways I believe this series left a wonderful blueprint for future limited series to come.

It's not for everyone's taste but if someone likes weird and satiric humor, can enjoy cringe and slow-burn stories with layers then it would be one of the best from recent shows. Finally something different.

Acting and writing are on point too. After the utter Netflix nonsenses this show is like your first ice cream sundae after a year long diet with extra whipped cream.

The White Lotus is so much better than I expected. Both seasons have all-star casts from top to bottom and all do an incredible job. I can't point that out enough, both casts are perfect. Also, the visuals on this show are just beautiful. This series has already won so many awards for season one and I expect season two to win just as many. It's both funny and serious in how it shows the difference in classes and how some of the wealthy and privileged live their lives. There are no real villains in this show but definitely some frustrating and annoying characters. There are so many great characters that everyone will have their favorite and most annoying.

I loved the first and second season of The white lotus. The pacing was nice, the mood was beautifully set with music and mythology. I loved the characters and their stories and there was stuff happening. The third season however has a pacing issue in my opinion. Right now I am on the second episode and both episodes were very, very boring. Most of the characters are really unlikable. The characters that were unlikable in the first two seasons were at least fun. The ones in the 3rd season are just unlikable and have no redeeming qualities. I hope something good happens in the third episode, because I am slowly loosing my patience. Also I have a complaint about the theme song. Loved the first two iterations in the previous seasons, but this one isn't as good at all. I would rate the first 2 seasons with an 8 and this season with a 5. If the season gets better I will come back and edit this review. If not-you will know;)
