With each passing day, a darker complexity emerges in these picture-perfect travelers, the hotel's cheerful employees, and the idyllic locale itself.

Critics Consensus

Swapping its tropical trappings for Euro chic while focusing primarily on the corrosive influence of carnal desire, The White Lotus remains a cookie full of arsenic that goes down smooth.

Narratively speaking, this season felt flatter and had a little less texture, but it really sparkled. Season 2 was able to establish that the White Lotus formula works.

Season 2 leaves a less bitter taste in my mouth, which makes it slightly more forgettable to me.

While season 2 is still shown through White’s sneering lens, it’s clear he took more time developing the characters this time around, managing to find that balance between likeability and intrigue.

I think these seasons are good, but unfortunately none of the characters motivations make any sense. I would enjoy this show if anything they did and said made any sense.

Here's the formula for White Lotus: Push the sex-envelope. Push the vulgar and tasteless envelope. Populate it with ugly, weak and awful people in an exotic location. Poof! You've got another season.

I like White Lotus -season two I just was not partial to some of the characters, nor the constant tension through out. Could have passed BUT the occasional glimpses of Italian country side are a real treat, as were the two escorts-very real. I’ll throw in a star for those.

I really enjoyed the first season as although some of the characters were cliches, it had a good balance of comedy and drama with a well-developed plot. The second season has almost no comedy and little by way of plot for 4 episodes - one of the 3 subplots literally got nowhere for all 7 episodes, just providing the sex, sex and more sex to keep it going. A good plot doesn't need that. I was going to give up on it as it only picked up pace in the final episodes when a few clever twists redeemed it.
