The White Lotus completed its third season of storytelling about the wealthy guests at beautiful resorts, focusing as always on their pettiness, their self-centeredness, their air of superiority, and their despicable behavior. Season 3 took place in Thailand, featuring characters including actress Jaclyn and her childhood friends Kate and Laurie, wealthy (but crooked) businessman Timothy Ratliff and his family, and troubled Rick Hatchett and his girlfriend Chelsea, plus Belinda, the masseuse returning from Season 1.
