The White Lotus

this is my new favourite thing!

The White Lotus, a new limited series written and directed by Mike White, arrives July 11 on HBO Max. #TheWhiteLotus #HBO

A social satire set at an exclusive Hawaiian resort, The White Lotus follows the vacations of various hotel guests over the span of a week as they relax and rejuvenate in paradise. But with each passing day, a darker complexity emerges in these picture-perfect travelers, the hotel’s cheerful employees, and the idyllic locale itself.

The White Lotus stars Murray Barlett (Looking), Connie Britton, (Nashville), Jennifer Coolidge (2 Broke Girls), Alexandra Daddario (True Detective), Fred Hechinger (Eighth Grade), Jake Lacy (Girls), Brittany O’Grady (Little Voice), Natasha Rothwell (Insecure), Sydney Sweeney (Euphoria), and Steve Zahn (Treme). The White Lotus is created, written and directed by Mike White, of HBO’s Enlightened.





i'm three episodes in so far, and i'm loving it more with each episode i watch (its a 6-parter, with the last one airing tomorrow in the US) - stifflers mom has log lady kinda vibes to her, carrying around a bag with her mums ashes in

it's just so beautifully shot and a stunning soundtrack, plus such a great cast, whats not to love?!

anyway, it starts on sky atlantic/nowTV tomorrow!

Yeah, but different cast and location for season 2

I've been rationing myself to one episode of this per night in an attempt to make it last longer, I can't tell you how great it is!

watched the final episode last night. absolutely loved the whole thing. yes, the people are mostly awful, but i think thats kinda the point.

i'm a little conflicted on some of the decisions at the end, but i can live with them, and it's not like we're going to be seeing them again next season

i spent a lot of the time wondering why the kids were sleeping on the sofa and in the kitchen/beach rather than their own room, but then i checked the prices. youre looking at ~£12k a night for their room, vs $30k a night for the 3 bedroomed pineapple suite!

Watched the first episode last night but wasn’t really feeling it so not sure I’ll bother with another one. Wasn’t prepared for seeing Steve Zahn’s privates 🤣

Hi I too watched the first episode and wasn't that fussed but continued with the 2nd and it was certainly better, now up to episode 4 so has grown on me.

We watched the first episode last night, loved it.

Have you seen Enlightened? Stars Laura Darn and written by Mike White. In short, Laura Dern has to return to live at home following mental health issues.
