Overall the season was ok. I still enjoyed watching, but my least favorite of the three.

I saw Chelsea's death coming.
i couldn’t figure out who was going to die until she looked so happy after Rick returned and she told him we going be together or so something like that and they focused on how happy she was…I knew then it would be her.

I don’t get why everyone is saying Belinda is acting like a bad person? She’s known Pornchai for like a week and they had one conversation about starting a business before she got 5 million dollars. Leaving Thailand was 100% the right decision for her

However, creator Mike White has teased that the location for season four may not have quite the same waves crashing against its walls.

“For the fourth season, I want to get a little bit out of the crashing waves of rocks vernacular but there’s always more room for more murders at the White Lotus hotels,” he said at the end of season three.

Belinda thinks she is rich.

Um, yes and no. You are rich RIGHT NOW.

But, let's go quit our job, and not open a spa.

How long will that money last on expenses of $50K to $100K per year because you know she is going to raise her standard of living. Think she will invest it and keep working? Nope. She will work when she blows a good bit of it.

I'll also add that Sam Rockwell was awesome in the few minutes we got of him. What a great character he created in such a short amount of time.

Eh, I think she was more concerned with getting some legitimate space between her and Greg. Taking a minute to get away from that doesn’t necessarily mean she will blow all of it.

She never said she was never working again. It makes sense to leave Thailand and get away from Gary. You just don’t want to like her

That's just not a well thought out scenario by the writers.


For some reason this quote brought me back to GOT final seasons…..although a little choppy an ill conceived at points…WL 3 was still head and shoulders above the abortion of GOT last season.

Overall I like this season and the finale.

I don’t mind the reveal coming after Rick killed his dad that it was his dad, it was the ultimate encapsulation of how his rash decision making had bad outcomes like Chelsea tried to teach him.

I might be in the minority but I thought Mook was very much a gold digger. She only cares about Gaitok when she thinks he’s moving up to a bigger position, blows him off when he says he’s leaving the WL, and then jumps back to him when he becomes a body guard.

Wish they showed a little of the family finding out about the crimes other than the brother and sister giving each other a glance on the boat. Also wish they had some revelation about Kate and Victoria knowing each other, such a random throw away scene.

Greg/Gary has to be done as a character now I would imagine. His wink at the end confirming he’s a cuck was hilarious.

Belinda pulling a full Tanya is so ironic, and great writing.

Now that it’s all said and done, Rick pissed me the frick off. He starts out the episode leaving his friend to relapse and fall back into debauchery (glad we got a shot of him back in the temple at the end) and then instead of getting the frick out of Thailand he goes back to the resort OWNED BY THE GUY YOU JUST ASSAULTED and just decided to chill for another day like it’s no problem.

Then, you run into the guy again, and he STILL gives you a second chance to get out. Rick could have gotten Chelsea, explained that it’s time to go, and it ends there. But no, he has to sit and brood and then go fricking kill the guy, resulting in the deaths of at least 5 people (himself, Chelsea, his dad and I think 2 guards), plus I’m sure major PTSD for Sritala, the manager and the cougar trio. Just horrible decision making that could have totally been avoided.

Rick rant aside, I felt bad for Lochy drinking the suicide smoothie, since he was the only one who said he could live with nothing, and since he’s obviously very confused and unsure of what to do with his life. The fact that he survived somehow is a real copout, and him staying dead would have hit much harder and would have been a really tragic and dark way to end that family’s storyline. But their lives are going to be miserable already so maybe it would have been a bit much.

Also, happy for my guy Gaitok. He finally grew some nuts, got the girl and got the promotion. All he had to do was shoot a guy in the back.

Overall, good season, but it dragged a touch. I would probably put it in 3rd but still very enjoyable and worth a watch.

Also, Carrie Coon got that top end speed.

I will say I am surprised so many on here wanted Belinda to be killed

It was a low blow to flake on the other masseuse but I would extort the multi millionaire too. Are people really pearl clutching over that?

If you watch that video a few times in a row they sound exactly like the freaking monkeys when they’re screaming.

Yep, by far the weakest season, but still entertaining nonetheless.

Belinda's fricked up thing was bringing her son to meet and involve him with a guy she thought murdered someone to negotiate the buyout.

That's top tier bad mothering.

I agree she wants to get away as fast as possible. But then she starts downplaying the idea of her own spa

I enjoyed the season. Like most have said it’s probably last out of the three but still very enjoyable. This show is always easy to get invested in these narcissistic aholes in such a short time
