Viewers have been beguiled and baffled by Mike White’s “White Lotus series for two seasons, and excitement is running high for the next mysterious luxury excursion, set for Thailand to begin on Sunday night.

White stirs the pot with wicked glee and we love him for it. Forget the rehashes and missteps. Season 3 of "The White Lotus" comes out blazing with White's incendiary creative fire. I can't imagine any TV addict who won't turn to friends and say, "This you have to see."
