The Finale’s Easter Eggs – Golden Globes Noms – SNL’s Christmas Gift

The second season of The White Lotus, one of the more decorated prestige-television offerings of recent years, had its finale bow Sunday night, and it’s hard to tell whether the episode itself or the speculation leading up to it has taken up more of our mental space. We’ve been reading theories more than Daphne reads Vanity Fair on the beach, which is to say, a lot. Nobody guessed that that would happen in last night’s episode, and we can’t stop thinking about what it all means. All those Easter eggs along the way! Question: If you’re a ghost, do White Lotus resorts still charge per bed?
Elsewhere in HWD, we’ve broken down everything we know about season three of The White Lotus, including that it can’t come soon enough, and recruited an Italian-born Stanford art-history professor to break down what all that classic art and staring neoclassical eyes judging the characters as they stab each other in the back can tell us about the show. Of course, it’s also awards season, and the Golden Globes—back on TV and looking for redemption after being held via Twitter last year—announced their nominations today. The White Lotus, of course, was well-represented. And this weekend, SNL helped us get into the holiday spirit, with a delightful double-host situation featuring pals Martin Short and Steve Martin. Just call it Only Sketch Comedy in the Building. All this and more, today in HWD.
