Some people seem to not understand that the characters in The White Lotus are meant to be unlikeable. They're ultra wealthy, privileged people who are self-absorbed and clueless about reality. The show is like a satirical character study. That's fine, but it makes it unbelievably boring and drawn out. Since every character is awful you don't care about what happens to them. Every episode is just a repeat of the one before. The plot is almost nonexistent and just when you think things are finally going to get exciting it's.... over? The whole time I thought it must be a slow burn and things would come to a head but then the credits start rolling and you're left with 6 hours of wasted time. The fact Jennifer Coolidge won an award for this role is mind-blowing. This is not a show I would recommend to anyone, and I can't believe it was even made, especially for HBO.
