Razor-sharp, deeply uncomfortable, and hilariously self-aware, the second installment of 'The White Lotus' is even better than the first.
’s second season when four privileged New Yorkers discuss the streaming wars on a picturesque hotel terrace. “There’s so much content now,” says Will Sharpe’s Ethan, a sensitive entrepreneur who’s recently sold his company. “There’s billions of shows everyone’s trying to keep up with. It’s kind of suffocating.” His wife, Aubrey Plaza’s no-nonsense employment lawyer Harper, nods solemnly. “It’s like we’re all entertaining each other while the world burns, right?” she says.
The scene is, in many ways, a microcosm of the season as a whole: razor-sharp, deeply uncomfortable, and hilariously self-aware. The show itself is, of course, feeding into the same problem—and yet, in its depiction of the idyllic, sun-dappled bubble in which this quartet resides, it emerges as the perfect comedy for the end of the world.
Alongside Ethan, Harper, Daphne, and Cameron, this includes F. Murray Abraham as patriarch Bert Di Grasso, who is traveling with his son Dominic and grandson Albie ; and Jennifer Coolidge’s utterly ridiculous, irrepressible heiress Tanya McQuoid, with her exhausted assistant Portia in tow.
