Agreed that subtitles in English are handy for that Essex guy.

I loved S1 and am possibly even enjoying S2 more.

Objectively, it doesn't feel that a lot is happening, and yet it is. Every
character is well drawn, and there are laugh out loud moments. Are they
mostly all awful people? Certainly. But you're invested in them. It's all
obviously going to kick-off in a big way in the final episode, but the
simmering until now has been fabulous. The pot is just about to boil over...

And you don't often see a US series featuring quite such an authentic Essex
accent as we get in this. I imagine some used subtitles...

I got halfway through S1 and found everyone uninteresting and I likable and
bailed. But my daughters are bugging me to jump back in, so probably will.

[TV orNotTV] The White Lotus - season 2

2022-12-09 Thread Doug Eastick
anyone else watching it?

We binged season 1 after the Emmys. Season 2 has been very good too.  
The final episode is this sunday night.

The subreddit discussion has revealed a number of the plot complexities 
that I would have missed otherwise.

My only guess as to "who died" is that Tonya does not die, because Jennifer 
Coolidge is a very good friend of Mike White (creator, writer, director) 
and she may be a key thread to each season.
