@mclaincausey said in TV:
The White Lotus: S1 > S2 > S3
I enjoyed S3 and some of the stories around social mobility, but felt the writing was not great overall.
I'm obsessed/in love with the concept and setting and could watch this show endlessly. But agree it's not the best of the three but I do think the finale was brilliant.
For me, S2 >

@mclaincausey I totally agree with you and was thinking that maybe The White Lotus had jumped the proverbial shark
. I stuck with it because I like Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood,who plays Rick’s girlfriend Chelsea. She’s really great in a Netflix series called Sex Education. In general I was glad it’s over,and now we’re on to The Righteous Gemstones. -
@mclaincausey White Lotus is the best at the spaces in between the dialogue. Making the viewer sit and chew on the awkward and uncomfortable. I feel like this season had just as much of that brilliance as the first 2, but I agree that the linear story and solution/reveals/payoff fell short of expectation.
I am still absolutely going to watch season 4, and have been pondering potential locations for the next White Lotus resort.

It would be hard to get into my issues with the writing without spoilers but it wasn’t great IMO. I still enjoyed it as kind of an escapist thing and there was some interesting character development.

It’s things like the reveal of something that was evident since the third episode being handled in a very cheesy way as if they thought they got us on a twist, and then a few inexplicable and unrealistic acts by some characters that took a bit of shine off for me.

Watching The Last of Us - S2 premier... enjoying it so far.
