‘The White Lotus’ Season 3 Review: Thailand Welcomes You to a Less Comedic Chapter That's Still Irresistibly Entertaining
The White Lotus Season 3, starring Walton Goggins, Parker Posey, and others, is slower than past seasons but remains enjoyable TV. Read our review.
Mike White’s HBO series The White Lotus has become nothing short of a cultural phenomenon. After the first two seasons swept the TV awards circuit, pulled in millions of viewers, and reminded the world of just how hilarious and talented Jennifer Coolidge is, the show’s third installment is one of the most hotly anticipated series of 2025. Focusing on the disgustingly wealthy, largely amoral, and, for most of them, moronic guests of the White Lotus hotel franchise, the show has been at the forefront of the “eat the rich” trend of storytelling that has dominated TV and cinema for the past few years. HBO has made a killing off taking down the wealthy and powerful, with Succession being their crowning jewel. However, now that the Roys’ absurd antics have ended, The White Lotus has returned to remind us that the lives of the 1% aren’t always so glamorous.
