IT'S BEEN A little over two years since we last took a visit to a White Lotus resort. And while that's just about par for the course in the modern television landscape, you only really begin to realize just how much you've been missing writer/director Mike White's razor sharp world and characters once you're back in.

The White Lotus season 3 will be 8 episodes in total, an increase from season 2's 7 episodes and season 1's six. That means there are two episodes—and two weeks of humor, mystery, and dark social satire intrigue—remaining in season 3 of The White Lotus.
