The White Lotus (HBO not so Limited Series)

"friendships that were lost" :D

whatever happened in Thailand was good for his thoroughly unhinged performance so
 
I'm finally fully caught up and I have mixed feelings.

the best characters are the Ratliffs. obviously. I loved the switch that happened when Victoria lost her lorazepam and Timothy started abusing them instead. Saxon is played to perfection, a complete loser but with buckets of confidence, the kind of privileged nepo baby who constantly fails upward. Piper NOOO is astonishingly boring but I feel we're about to see some cracks in her moral superiority. and curious twink Lachlan ain't leaving that temple.

the girlfriends story... is a bit of a bore to me. some funny moments, some good catty dialogue, but mostly seven episodes of music video montages of them poolside or clubbing with almost no actual storyline. short bob who's not not a Republican - started as a gossip/shit stirrer and now she's the nice one? all these actors must love the prospect of a six month holiday because they're playing characters with very little meat on the bones.

Rick and Chelsea - wtf? "I fell in love with him because he told me his whole life story"... girl not two days ago you discovered he never knew his dad who was murdered and he's here not for a holiday with you but to revenge the murderer. you do not know this man AT ALL. and he's a fucking misery to spend time with! nonetheless Aimee Lou is really good in this and has been a highlight, despite being stuck with him.

and as for GREG coming back... fucking please.

it's very entertaining TV, it always looks and sounds good, but the writing for the most part is way off this season. a lot of it doesn't make sense and I think that's a bit of a problem for a show like this. I don't know or care who's shot but I'm gonna say it involves GAITOK proving he's not a soft man by popping off with that pistol, and/or the monkeys.
 
Real Housewives gays really do just see any three women drink wine and say something catty and think it's high art, no matter how DULL they may otherwise be :(

(I say best bit - this season really is a boot across the board compared to the heights of Season 2! Parker Posey's ludicrous accent has been fun, but this show is a bit lost without the STEADY MOORING of TANYA MCQUOID :disco:)
 
People I want to live

Carrie Coon
Parker Posey
Belinda
Demon Twink
The girlfriend who sounds like a hen from Chicken Run
Valentin
 
So who’s DYING next episode? My money is on sad old GAITOK.
I'm thinking lovely Gaitok tries to shoot VALENTIN after confronting him about the robbery but somebody else (Piper?) gets shot instead.
 
Has anyone else noticed the likeness of Aimee (Ricks girlfriend) and GILLY from Game Of Thrones?

Not only do they have the same teeth but they have a very similar accent.

There’s whole Reddits and Google threads dedicated to people asking if it’s the same person :D (it’s not)
 
Girl spill the tea.

There was one interview in which he made some sniffy sounding comment about Parker Posey having a very different acting process or something. I keep on seeing lots of pictures of him with the kids but I am thinking Jason and Parker may have not got on so well.
 
Did I read the room wrong in that Lachlan wanted to fuck his sister too?

I really thought he was going for the kiss when she came into his room. Such wanton desires...

Oh and protect poor Gaitok. Lisa from Blackpink can die however.

I want to see the Leslie Bibb glowing ladyboys ping pong dream sequence.

PARKER POSEY (VICTORIA RATLIFF) I was at Jennifer Coolidge’s Halloween party, alone at a cheese table at 1 the morning, wondering, “Should I have some more cheese?” Mike was one foot out the door, and he’s like, “Hi, I just want to say you’re doing such great work lately. Blah blah blah. Bye!” It struck me: Maybe I’m going to be part of White Lotus. My friends were like, “Of course you are.”

:disco:
 
creative differences with the composer of the (incredible) soundtrack? oh it's all falling apart :D season 4 will be interesting!
 
Honestly, even Posey Parker, the blonde bitches, a hot brother wank, and a fun turn from Aimee-Lou, I'm rooting for no-one, I kinda hope they all die and never come back.

From everything I've seen, Isaacs was a hot mess during filming, Goggins hates him, and the rest of the cast have little or no time for any of it. Parker won't even hang with the rest of the cast during promo. Drop a behind the scenes documentary and save this wretched series.
 
I mean, they know the questions were positioned for fun answers, but the answers point to BAD BLOOD.

 
I think I should just stay offline til tomorrow evening. In fact I need to find out how to turn off Reddit notifications ASAP!
 
I have a meeting at 9:30 tomorrow morning and my intention is to wake up early enough to watch it beforehand so I can avoid spoilers.
