<!--HBO?s The White Lotus marks quirk-and-cringe auteur Mike White?s firs=
t TV series since the existential-crisis classic Enlightened, which ended i=
ts two-season run back in 2013. TV is better for having White working=
in it, though it?s worth warning that the six-episode The White Lotus is, =
in many ways, more a successor to his subversively trashy 2001 Fox soap ope=
ra Pasadena than to Enlightened, the rare HBO classic that?s genuinely unde=
rrated. A snapshot of awfully rich people doing awfully awful things, White=
Lotus is delightfully mean-spirited and unexpectedly big-hearted in ways t=
hat will probably polarize some audiences. I found it vibrantly messy and d=
eceptively emotional, a show that I wasn?t convinced was working after one =
episode and that I didn?t want to end after six. Related Stories

Creator: Mike White
The series, written and directed entirely by White, is set over the c=

ests are varying shades of white, varying degrees of well-to-do and varying=
levels of insufferable. There are the Mossbachers ? tech CEO Nicole (Conni=
e Britton), amiably emasculated hubby Mark (Steve Zahn), college-aged daugh=
ter Olivia (Sydney Sweeney) and her best friend Paula (Brittany O?Grady), p=
lus confusingly disconnected teenage son Quinn (Fred Hechinger). There are =
newlyweds Shane (Jake Lacy) and Rachel (Alexandra Daddario), who look so pr=
etty together nobody has noticed how thoroughly unsuited they are for each =
other. And wandering around in a daze is Tanya (Jennifer Coolidge), clutchi=
ng her mother?s ashes and looking for meaning. Providing service with=
a smile ? or at least tolerantly listening to unreasonable complaints ? ar=
