According to Deadline, the White Lotus, along with Euphoria and The Last of Us, are among the three shows that HBO wants to start right away.

Although the first season was held in Hawaii and the second season in Sicily concluded, White was more certain that next season would take place somewhere in Asia.

HBO has arranged another stay with The White Lotus. The premium television network announced on Friday that it had renewed its critically acclaimed anthology series The White Lotus for a third season.

This is life. Audiences can't get enough of it. If it's because their own lives don't match up to the dramatic drama of what they see on television or they crave escapism, one thing is even more apparent during this year's TV fall season: reality is amazing. Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, based on the serial killer and cannibal's (real) life, became the most watched series in Netflix's history. In a short time, it was knocked off its pedestal by The Watcher, another real-life drama based on the lives of a family that migrated to New Jersey, but only to be the victims of a horrific stalker. The more gruesome and sinister the topic is, the more audiences seem to be craving it.

Many more people tried out The White Lotus than had expected when it was introduced. According to a press release from premium network, the season two premiere of the HBO series attracted 1.5 million viewers, which is a whopping 63% increase from the season one debut. If that wasn't enough, the enthralling viewership number for each episode soared by 33% over the average debut night audience for each episode in season one. In order to maintain viewership numbers as the original season went on to average 9.3 million viewers per episode across television broadcasting networks in the United States, it would have to reach quite the bar.

Imogen Edwards-Jones, who wrote the Hotel Babylon series, shared horror stories from her year of study in luxury hotels in a preview on Sky Atlantic's new series The White Lotus. She claimed that sex workers are rife in five-star hotels and can be accessed as easily as requesting a 'extra pillow' from hotel reception. Imogen also stated that all businesses, including administration and concierges, have their own employees on the books, who they recommend to hotel visitors.

Season two of "White Lotus" is here, and it introduces us to a new over-the-top resort and a nearly new cast of characters. Daphne (Meghann Fahy) swims in the ocean for the first time before her return flight to the United States on Sunday, on Sky Atlantic and NOW TV. But her last relaxing swim is nothing but when she finds a dead body in the water with her, kicking off a mystery we'll be curious about all season. However, it seems that the frightened individual isn't the only one to die this season. Rocco informs hotel manager Valentina (Sabrina Impacciatore) that one of the guests drowned in the next scene. "It's fine, the ocean is not hotel property," she says. "We can't be liable for what happens in the Ionian sea!"

After a fruitful first season that culminated in 20 Emmy nominations and landed ten awards, including Outstanding Limited Or Anthology Series, the White Lotus returns for its second season on HBO. The latest seven-episode season of the social satire is held at an exclusive Sicilian resort and follows the exploits of many visitors and employees over the course of a week. Tanya McQuoid-Hunt, Jennifer Coolidge, and Jon Gries as her new husband Greg Hunt appear in Season 1.

The complexities of heads of ivory are brought to Sicily by "The White Lotus" season two, and there's one notable part of the island that the show makes note of: the intricate statues of heads. Cameron (Theo James), Ethan (Will Sharpe), Daphne (Meghann Fahy), and Harper (Aubrey Plaza) all inquire about the statue in their room during the first episode. The hotel's workman guide informs them that it is called a Testa di Moro. "The tale is a Moor," says the author. "I came here a long time ago and seduced a local teen." But then she found out that he had a wife and children back home. She shaved her head off because he lied to her."
