2 episodes in to this Cherie, it's good

I'm guessing they want us to think that it's Rachel who's died but i think that's a red herring, i reckon they fought/broke up and that's why she's not with him at the airport. I think it's stiflers mom who died/was murdered

It's set on a Hawaiian island and basically just following the guests and staff at The White lotus Hotel around for a couple of weeks. That doesn't make it sound overly interesting but it is really good, it's very funny as well.

Tiny spoiler (something from the first episode so not a major one

At the start of the very first episode it's set at the present day and during a conversation you learn a person was murdered during the 2 week period and it goes back to the start of the two weeks to see what happened, so a bit of a mystery too

No worries :love: Let us know what you think

Finished it last night

Clearly I misremembered the first conversation, I had it in my head that it was a woman who was killed but that was wrong :laugh:

The ending was pretty bleak really but maybe an accurate representation of real life. I was particularly annoyed that Rachel decided to stay with Shane, you can just imagine what an empty life waits for her in the future and when her looks fade she'll probably be cast aside for a younger model

Also poor Kai :(

I think it was impressive trickery as I thought it was a woman as well, yeah I thought the ending while bleak was probably a fair representation of the world today, like Paula and Olivia back to reading their books while Kai was carted off :sad: and Rachel taking the easy option

Loving that Quinn went off to live his best life on the Kayak but as if they wouldn't have noticed he wasn't on the plane long enough for him to get back though :laugh:

Just finished Season 2

Devastated that they killed off Tanya, her death was hilariously apt though, after all that killing the whole crew, she falls off the boat. Why was she trying to get into the speed boat that way??? ffs :laugh:

It was equally as depressing as the first season when you see the ending for the two couples and the 3 men. Looks like Albie will end up like his dad and Grandad and Ethan & Harper will end up just like Cameron & Daphne

I was really happy with Lucia & Mia's ending though :laugh:

I just checked the IMDb parental guidance, it makes it sound like a porno :skull: .

Although Sex is the underlying theme of S2 so there's more sex scenes in it than there was in S1. S1 was more about Class. Both look at power Dynamics though

Ok watched the first 2 episodes , feels like a slow burner ....but I'm curious how the series pans out .Jennifer Coolidge seems like the eccentric comic relief so far .

Ok finished the first season ,and I honestly laughed at the final outcome...as it was so ott . There was scenes which we didn't need to see like the suitcase being one of them, it was just vulgar for the sake of it . Overall..... it was a bit all over the place with not many likeable characters. But I'm hoping season 2 is a bit better.

Season 2 is packed with humour, and the grandpa/father/son combo are hilarious. Well known actors too
