The White Lotus season 3 premiere did not disappoint! Everything I love about the show is here. The slow building tension, the sharp and awkward social dynamics, and that feeling that something is just OFF beneath all the luxury. Right from the start, the relationships feel well established, and you can tell things are going to unravel in the best (or worst) way possible.

Thailand looks absolutely stunning, as does the hotel. The cinematography, soundtrack, and overall vibe - all perfect. The episode immediately pulls you in and makes you feel like you're there, which is something this show always does so well.

I saw a lot of buzz online about Lisa joining the cast, and I was honestly expecting to be let down since hype usually leads to disappointment. But she's great! I saw Grace Randolph's tweet, and after she gave positive comments on these actresses, I was especially curious about Lisa and Aimee's performances. Have to say they both delivered, and the whole cast is already bringing such strong energy.

Also, from the very first episode, you can tell something is going to happen with the siblings. It's HBO MAX, so nothing really shocks me at this point (Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon).

Overall, a strong opener, and I can't wait to see where this season takes us!
