	Media	Author	Review
		Judy Berman Time	"Individual Sicily episodes rarely achieve the same chaotic momentum as the ones set in Hawaii did. Yet the ideas are as fresh and provocative as ever"
		Pat Brown Slant	"[It] remains television’s most intriguing and precise murder mystery-cum-social satire (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
		Barbara Ellen The Guardian	"[Mike White's] subversive instinct is to put audience expectations into a neat pile, then burn them. He'll see you next time (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Angie Han The Hollywood Reporter	"While the new installment doesn’t cut quite as close to the bone as the first did, it alights upon more than a few observations sharp enough to draw blood"
		Al Horner Empire	"[It] prods and provokes as mischievously and movingly as the first time (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"[It] may not feel as light on its feet as last summer’s surprise hit, but it’s certainly not resting on its laurels"
		Caroline Framke Variety	"[It] remains one of TV’s most purely visceral, evocative shows "
		Kelly Lawler USA Today	"Did 'Lotus' really need a follow-up season? Probably not (...) But the new seven-episode season is comparable, and most importantly keeps the tone alive"
		Marya E. Gates The Playlist	"It isn’t worth the trip this time"
		Meghan O'Keefe Decider	"He [Mike White] doesn’t just recreate the magic of the first installment, but he stretches his own creative muscles. 'The White Lotus Season 2' is a resounding triumph"
		LaToya Ferguson The Wrap	"'The White Lotus' Season 2 is an unequivocal success"
		Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"The resort's wealthy, obnoxious guests are more interesting this time around, a little more fascinating in a human train-wreck kind of way, a little more … wonderfully awful (in most cases) (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		Allison Picurro TV Guide	"There are so many elements about this season that make it better than the majority of shows on TV right now (...) but when you know how good 'The White Lotus' can be, why would you want to accept anything less?"
		Ed Power Telegraph	"Another delicious helping of wealth-savaging satire (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Lacy Baugher Paste Magazine	"It is messier and hornier than ever before"
		Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"It is sharp enough to justify the series’ ongoing existence. It’s hard not to wonder, though, what might have happened if White had used the juice from Season One"
		Emma Kiely Collider	"The second season of 'The White Lotus' is better than the first, as it feels like it’s not trying to prove as much. The characters are given the freedom to take precedence and the action unfolds from there on more smoothly"
		Barry Levitt SlashFilm	"The second season of 'The White Lotus' puts an awful lot on its plate, but it balances it all to perfection"
		Peter Travers ABC News	"[It] is TV at its seductive, sneakily unsettling best. But be ready: You won't know what hit you"
		Tara Bennett IGN	"White is masterful in weaving their disparate stories together for a slow build of tension that finally snaps"
		Valerie Ettenhofer Film School Rejects	"Sometimes the most beguiling pieces of art can hide the most profound and messed-up truths, but other times, it's okay if they just tell an exciting story. In season two, 'The White Lotus' may be on track to do both"
