[@Stubrok]

She was the stand out performance for me. She might be the talkative outgoing character but her eyes told the real story.

[@slashedbeauty]

yes!! she did so much acting in between her lines.

[@thiagosardenberg353]

THANK YOU! Very that

[@adanperez648]

Haha no, Coolidge carried the show

[@remoballesteros448]

YES! This scene alone proves how rich of a character she made Daphne to be

[@kriskay6]

Agree!!

[@Sdority905]

She's amazing in The Bold Type as well. I'm a big fan of her and can't wait to see what she does.

[@agataguzy6641]

me too! I love that she is getting recognised more and more ❤ I loved her in the Bold Type as welll

[@kitkatashley]

I miss the bold type 😢

yes I've been rewatching the bold type after white lotus!

[@agataguzy6641]

@@kitkatashley YES, omg it was such a good and underappreciated show. I loved it! It was lovely, even tho coviid ruined some plans for season 4 I think. Neverthelss, its great

[@charlieb2b]

That scene was amazing, you can see how she went through a lot of emotions right there.

[@JayBuff19]

Yep, she processed so much and I felt it, and then made her decision. It’s all good. Great pacing and editing as well!

[@vikram1477]

That was her finest scene! Superb emoting!

[@arang_ba]

There is something so beautiful about her personality off and on screen.

[@cwg73160]

Her personality on-screen isn’t hers. She’s an actor.

[@hummersd]

She's friggin' awesome in White Lotus! And who knew she was on Broadway understudying in Next to Normal! She's got the most promising trajectory after White Lotus to get films or more TV shows. What a great actress.

[@samara.ariel.jpg_]

YUP🥹🥹🥹 cmon bway bby!! watched her natalie in yt vids for years. i played diana in my production

[@loriskillman2580]

She was on one life to live years ago. A few very early episodes of Chicago fire, one law and order SVU. Some TV movies. 🙂

[@mahery3000]

She’s beautiful, talented and so underrated…her performances on The Bold Type was exceptional and now TWL she’s grown through her career experiences ❤

[@looney1023]

I thought her character was going to be one note, or variations of that one note, but then seemingly every episode there was just more and more to her, while her exterior never changed. She says one thing but means something completely different. It's just extraordinary. In a show full of standout performances, hers might be my favorite!

[@jaynefindlay3158]

Agreed. Such a wide range of acting and such a great character. My favourite part was when she showed the pic of her blonde trainer and then her blonde child. It's like she is in total control of everything and makes everything to her own advantage, but with strength, not manipulation.

[@lilypritchetthehe]

meghann fahy is like a ray of sunshine, she's sweet and smiley god i love her

[@hadassahbass1371]

I just love her, I’ve known she was a natural since “the bold type” but so so happy for her getting a big role like this that allows everyone to see how excellent she is! She’s going to be a knockout in Hollywood, whatever she does.

[@NotInformedOfficial]

that was actually her best scene. I truly believed her pain. Felt so real living a lie everyday just to stay happy together

[@sidinthe6ix]

fell in love with her on the Bold type, she's even better in white lotus! so glad she's starting to get the recognition she deserves :)

[@mattchuu402]

That scene they showed really displayed her acting chops. Her disassociation and naive way of thinking was acted brilliantly.

[@isittrueisitnot3303]

its actually deeper than that, that scene was showing a range of emotions, starting from the fact how she got disappointed, not by cameron but harper, cause she started seeing her as a friend, then processing it by looking at Ethan for affirmartion and in the distance, and in the end coming in terms with it, forcing the delusions and coping with the only way she knows how to - lying to herself and doing things to get revenge, that’s why she heads to the island and calls ethan to complete her plan

[@m.a.r.i.7063]

Big fan since The Bold Type which is one of my favorite shows ever. So happy for her success.

[@malb93]

The range of motion she portrayed on that scene alone was amazing.

[@pujathakur689]

Have been loving her work since the bold type, she's such a star.

[@kentsilverfour]

I LOOOOOOVE HER! Glad she had han opportunity to showcase her acting skills in a major series.

[@ThatsSoDan]

She was my favorite character. I think she deserved an Emmy nomination

[@bootney66]

When she told Ethan “walk with me”, I almost got off of my couch and started to walk 😍 😊

[@authorquinnavery]

She did an amazing job this season…slight second best to Jennifer’s performance!

[@SabrinaJohns]

The minute she came on the screen in White Lotus I was like “who’s that????” not just because of her outward beauty but because of how magnetic she is!! A superstar for sure 😍❤️

[@HobbyAsylum]

That scene was so powerful. Her eyes said everything.

[@alessiobracco4357]

i feel like she’d be a great Sue Storm for the upcoming Fantastic 4 film. she’s an amazing and intelligent actress.

[@miyoungpark6340]

It's a gift to have a charming personality that can connect with everyone

[@amandakkaiser]

love her energy ❤ she's so magnetic

[@karmaklutz]

She is a breath of fresh air, absolutely love her

[@Garcelle1987]

Ms Fahey, Hollywood’s new romcom queen!! Sure, it hasn’t happened yet but it should! She’s gorgeous, charming and has brilliant comic timing (Bold type fans know what’s up)

[@melrox8809]

I loved her on "the bold type"

[@teamvigod]

It's not often I cannot wait until the next week to see the new episode but White Lotus did that for me. Meghann was excellent as was the entire cast. Mike White is a ledgend. Well deserved Golden Globe and likely more awards headed their way. Amazing season. This one will be hard to top.

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

In case anyone's curious, they keep mentioning Mike White. I finally had to look it up: "Is he the same one who wrote School of Rock?" Sure enough. Amazing hilarious movie

[@yooji9655]

I love jimmy Fallon sm. He celebrated her at the beginning and highlighted one of her best scenes in the show

[@laragenter]

No New Yorker ever fails to mention they're a New Yorker. Anyway love Meghan xx

[@johnhaxby306]

Her character had the most realistic viewpoint on her marriage to a total sexy douchebag. She was in it to win it and she came to peace with herself, her role as wife and mother, her love for this guy. She is the most up front healthy happy character, loved it! Watching it a second time now that I know what happens to Tanya.

[@denarendall]

Cannot wait to see more of Meghann. She’s phenomenal!

[@jamesmaxson2306]

Yessss they showed her best scene. Chills

[@julietvanhaudt2383]

That scene is probably the best scene i’ve ever seen in the 21 years of my life.

[@hermunkulus]

She was solid in the show. I'm captivated by her eyes. They're stunning. EDIT: Interesting how she considers herself a New Yorker when she grew up in MA. No complaints here though because I am one haha

[@rubiginosaa]

I had never heard of her before The White Lotus but at this point I'll die for her

[@cheekynandosss581]

Literally same

[@claudiam2474]

Watch her in the Bold Type!

[@joliecide]

I find this woman so pretty and nuanced. Bright future ahead.

[@jaynefindlay3158]

OMG I LOVED the 2nd season! Fabulous cast and the scene showed here shows what a good actress Meghann is - thinking about what he said, showing some hurt, then moving on, and brushing it off...don't want to spoil what happens next. Please watch it if you haven't.

[@jch010]

They absolutly nail every single casting in both seasons. It would be great to see either her or Aubrey in the next season

He’s talking about the Meghann/Ethan moment

[@francescaromano6338]

@@loganmurphy9453can u explain

[@hermunkulus]

@@francescaromano6338 *spoilers* At the end Ethan tells Daphne (Meghann's character) that Harper was most likely cheating on him with Cameron. It's possible she could have been also telling him about how Ethan and Daphne also may have "returned the favor" by having sex off-screen. You'd have to watch the show in order to get it.

Ouuuufff, She’s. Such. A. Babe. Ooooweee.

The finally has been out for way too long to complain about spoilers.

@@knwr the point was about him ensuring to avoid spoilers and failing right after that, not about me complaining about the spoilers: pretty easy to comprehend

[@savage_skirt5386]

she was rather good, i thought

[@mariotorresgo]

Does Jimmy ever pay attention to what the guests are saying? He seems more invested in keeping the interview going forward. C'mon, she's making jokes and they seem to go over your head. I clicked because I loved her in White Lotus and have enjoyed her other interviews so far but Fallon doesn't help. I liked him a lot in SNL, I thought he was funny and like a nice guy but I've never enjoyed him in the Tonight Show, he seems disingenuous, phony, trying too much. I bet he would still do a great job being his genuine self.

[@seanyoungman]

dynamite performance

[@mesillahills]

Same ol'. same ol'. Some snowflake talking about their boring movie. For some non-stop laughter and entertainment, switch over to the number ONE rated late night show these day, Gutfeld ! Greg has created a new format that is not inhibited in content by the network brass. Nothing is off limits. And he plays personalities and comics against each other like "The Rat Pack" did decades ago. The "big three" comedy days are about over and I think they know it. It is reported that even CNN is going to create their own version of Gutfeld.
