White Lotus season one on the other hand was amazingly written and acted. It was not unredeemable characters, relying on crazy story turns and crazy ideas to keep you tuned in. It was a beautiful, direct shot at white wealth and the consequences of their whimsical, wealthy lifestyles, while perfectly showcasing the other side (hotel workers, island residents, minorities) and the effects their decisions and actions from their elevated lifestyle have on them.
I actually had to read some explanations on the season finale to better understand some of the nuance on the reason for certain actions and events and I was even more satisfied after that.
