White Lotus (HBO)

LOL, For sure. Trying to hang in there though, there were definitely some great scenes and I am really curious about how this is all going to end.

Feel like if you made it this far, might as well see it through to the end… but I’m guessing it only gets more f’ed up from here.

Really kind of a ho-hum penultimate episode of the season last week.

Yeah, it seems like they're saving everything for the final episode. It better be a doozy.

We rewatched the season 2 finale last night and that one will be very tough to beat.

Wife watches this but I couldn’t get into it.

My buddies assessment of this season after the final episode of season three… lol

You must be registered for see images attach

That was kinda predictable.

Def a distant third as far as seasons go.

Character wise I think this was my favorite season. Overall I think it fell behind season 2, but I liked it more than season 1.

I agree with all this. Carrie Coon in particular was phenomenal throughout. But the finale didn't quite live up to the build up IMO.

And there was really one completely unforgivable plot-point that really felt like White wrote himself into a corner and just didn’t care about even trying to get out, making the whole ending really unbelievable.

Which plot point are you thinking of? Can think of a few, lol.

I really should have seen Chelsea's fate coming considering she made a point that "bad things happen in threes".

Going back to the hotel of the man who you just threatened to kill and actually assaulted to leisurely eat from a donut tree doesn’t seem like the best idea.

Lol, wifey and I were saying the same thing as we were watching it. They chased him out of the old mans house for heaven's sake, of course they are going to come look for him!

I actually really enjoyed the Season 3 finale, and didn't catch the "flaw" that you and @Cheesebeef mentioned until I read it here. I am not a real critical watcher most of the time I guess. I thought the cinematography was excellent and the cast all did a great job. And there were less awkward moments than the previous episodes. But it still didn't top watching Jennifer Coolidge fall out of that yacht into the sea last season.

Spoiler

I put flaw in quotes because Rick really wasn't expecting that dude at the White Lotus. He didn't hang out there, and Rick was leaving soon anyway. But that doesn't solve the problem from the fact that the owner could have notified the police that Rick was a guest there and told them to put Rick in cuffs, thereby knocking the donut out of his hand in the process. The more I think about it, the more I agree with you guys, Rick should have been too worried to return there, donuts on a tree or not.
