S3 is funnier and has more of a soul already
Plus Parker poseys character is hilarious and I know several like her character IRL, she killed it |

Date: February 24th, 2025 3:11 PM Author: mountain cat she's playing a bit of a caricature. it's intentionally comedic but i don't think it's over the top TBH. Feels like it fits within the dynamic of their family.
Also, need a replacement for the void left by Jennifer Coolidge. |

Date: February 24th, 2025 4:32 PM Author: wait till biggus dickus hears of this Goggins is a 180 actor when they give him something to do. But so far his character seems shittily conceived.
Parker Posey is no Jennifer Coolidge. She's playing her caricatured oblivious wasted southern lady with disgust (like Alec Baldwin's Trump) which takes the fun out of it.
Not looking forward to the fat black masseuse saving the day. |

Date: February 24th, 2025 4:58 PM Author: mountain cat I think the goggins character will blossom. It's nice to see him in a dramatic role after his more eccentric parts in vice principals and righteous gemstones. The show has been careful to give us just enough about his character's temperament and background to make him mysterious and interesting IMO.
I'm a big parker posey fan so maybe i'm biased. It's possible the way she plays the part is specific to the character and not just a generic archetype. There are weird family dynamics, she's highly medicated and clearly unwell. I think this will come out more as the series progresses. The character may well be a contemptible person.
Def looking forward to wocwag the with masseuses. |

Date: February 24th, 2025 5:15 PM Author: cannon I’ve known older rich, inebriated southern women that are like that, although Parker Posey makes it a little stranger. She’s from a small town in Mississippi and her family still lives there, so she has some basis for it at least. There was an article about her today:
As Posey read the “White Lotus” script, she told me: “I thought about all the things I love about the South. The drama.” Posey played a big Southern personality in HBO’s 2022 true-crime series “The Staircase,” but her role — as the lonely, boozing prosecutor Freda Black — was a variation of her standard type. Now she had been handed an opportunity to draw out the characters of the Southern women she had watched from afar all her life. She felt like an outsider as a teenager in Laurel, the hometown of Tennessee Williams’s Blanche DuBois, but she observed her town’s beauty queens and quarterbacks with such close attention, “it strengthened my compassion,” she once said. Though she ironed out her accent when she moved to New York, now she reveled in broad Southern cadences, “dramatic and funny at the same time”
