The actor playing Quinn is so good. I understand it’s still satire but the purity of the cheesy Quinn scenes with the whale and the canoe, and when he told his dad he didn’t scuba so they could go together - the acting to pull those off is so subtle and so good. The show is so cringey and then Quinn brings you these chocolate cookies. I hope he doesn’t die.

I don't think so personally.

I didn't realize until last night how much Rachel looks like she could be a younger (ok fine yes prettier) version of Plop's mom.

Molly Shannon is so great in this show! Lol

Also am loving Jennifer Coolidge, particularly on this last episode. Her facial expressions kill me!


same same same - she was so heartbreaking and so effing funny at the same time. she's terrible and wonderful. i really want her to come out of this better than she got here.


Jennifer's acting in that scene (throwing the ashes into his arms, ha ha!) was absolutely incredible. She is underrated.

Somebody had fun assigning the various vacation reads to the characters. Shane - Malcom Gladwell; Rachel - My Brilliant Friend; Olivia - Camille Paglia

Fairly on the nose.

I would watch with my older teens but you should know in the first episode there is a full frontal of a mans swollen balls. It’s quick, not a sexual scene, but funny/cringey. Also, on a later episode two males are having sex and there is a quick shot where you see one man with his head up in the other guys a$$. It’s a hilarious and cringey scene/not romantic and passionate, if that matters.

Isn’t it great that we have choices to cater to our differences? I tried watching Schitt’s Creek, three times and could not make it past 2 episodes but I know it’s a fave on DCUM.

I love White Lotus; so glad to have this gem of a show!

There is a glimpse of a lead's testicles (prosthetic) in ep 2, I think, and a very graphic sex scene in ep 4.

Not everyone enjoys social satire.
