It seems like this The White Lotus TV show is a close-ended mini-series so, a second season renewal isn’t expected. Still, if a series is popular enough, things can change. Is there a future for this HBO show beyond its six episodes? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A satirical comedy series, The White Lotus stars Murray Bartlett, Connie Britton, Jennifer Coolidge, Alexandra Daddario, Fred Hechinger, Jake Lacy, Brittany O’Grady, Natasha Rothwell, Sydney Sweeney, and Steve Zahn with Molly Shannon, Jon Gries, Jolene Purdy, Kekoa Kekumano, and Lukas Gage in recurring roles. The story follows the vacations of various hotel guests over the span of a week as they relax and rejuvenate in paradise, at The White Lotus resort. But with each passing day, a darker complexity emerges in these picture-perfect travelers, the hotel’s cheerful employees and the idyllic locale itself.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
Note: These are the final national ratings, including all live+same day viewing and DVR playback (through 3:00 AM). Early fast affiliate ratings (estimates) are indicated with an “*”. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
What do you think? Do you like The White Lotus TV series on HBO? Should it be renewed for a second season, potentially with a new cast?
*8/11/21 update: The White Lotus has been renewed for a second season on HBO.
This may be HBO, but even the flagship of cable can err. Lackluster judgement approving this elephant, very lackluster written script, and frankly cliche ridden. Painful to watch at times with contrived/gratuitous sex scenes and references. Sophomoric is not to strong of a charge, and I’m not a prude….a steadfast HBO subscriber here.
Oh, but the scenery is pleasant at the Four Seasons Hawaii.
