Albie: you can't just buy people off Also Albie: dad can you transfer €50k 😅

[@nncoco]

He went dark quick. White knights are abusers most of the time.

[@mirianfonkam]

Lucia still played him lol I get he was right, he just didn't follow his own advice.

[@Luboman411]

Leo is a giant flirt. You can tell he's naturally like this with everyone, woman or man. He didn't put on an act for the "White Lotus" episodes. Just oozes confidence and sexiness with that British accent of his. Adam just reacts to that, as would most people who fell under Leo's charm. LOL...

[@cloned81]

Well.. It's not exactly the sexiest of British accents tbh...

Exactly. He's so charming

I would like to see the cast of this back for season 3. Season 1 was good but season 2 is on a whole other level. I’m obsessed

[@jramsey9690]

I was obsessed with Season 1 and I feel the same way about Season 2. White Lotus in a way is like Seinfeld. You know all (or most) of the characters are just awful people (if nothing else because in White Lotus they’re filthy, disgustingly rich), and yet you root for them and can’t look away. Brilliant writer-director, Mike Smith.

ugh the british guy is insanely charming

[@an-qo6by]

I like this season way more.

[@an-qo6by]

My thoughts this season: 1. The casting this season is better than the first. Truth is, I didn't finish the first season cause I really did not like the cast. But this season has been good! 2. The actors Albie, the dad, and grandfather were ON POINT! They really seem related and realistic, as if I know these people 3. I was swoooon when Leo Woodwall showed up. Yup, when a girl wants fun we need that fire and confidence. Albie is so sweet though I am rooting for him. I like how he is a nice guy but self aware and not one dimensional like you assumed he'd be 4. I feel sad for Tanya :( 5. Theo James... chef's kiss 6. The location of the show is beautiful. I feel like I am on vacation myself. The vibes are immaculate 7. This was the best episode yet. It was exciting and good pace. I wasn't bored haha

[@bjms5487]

Are you kidding me? You didn't finish season 1 (better than this one, at least until now) just because you didn't like the actors?

[@alsimanche]

Really?? I haven't really watched season 2 yet, but the first season was really great for me

[@maurameadesperry1715]

Can’t relate. Season 1 and cast were great IMO

[@kobrakitsch877]

Season 2 is much better than season 1. I agree with you. Especially regarding F. Murray Abrahams, Michael Imperioli and Adam Di Marco. ON POINT. Realistic and relatable. I personally felt that I was accompanying them on this trip perhaps as a silent cousin or caregiver of grandpa Burt.

[@SuperRobertoClemente]

Definitely finish season 1-- its themes and threads are important for season 2.

[@darnoth772]

This show is a masterpiece, the second season really hit home with me. Just the vibes and everything is great. It's just a great casual, beautiful adventure. The casting is amazing and nothing is cringe in the sense that I dont want to watch the show from cheezy acting etc.

[@dfa3366]

Season 2 is the perfect Italian Opera.

[@EyeoftheWhiteWolf]

Omg Adam DiMarco seems so young, like 20! He's 32, he's older than me!

[@15iannava]

Yes! Adam! Albie is suchhhh a great guy!

[@ianp383]

It's funny that you say that, because I think the son is supposed to be just like the father and grandfather. But I imagine most people wouldn't like the father's character. Albie used $ to attempt to manipulate Lucia. Even though he was initially well meaning, he later used his mother as a pawn, saying that he would put in a good word with her for his dad, in exchange for money from his father. He did all that because thought it would help him with a girl. Like father, like son.

[@nat-vw7lr]

@@ianp383 YES!!! & when he talked abt “wounded birds?” immediate red flag.

[@PalomaNegra873]

@@ianp383 At the end I didn't like Albie. I also think his character was going to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather. This is obvious when they all turn to look at the girl on the airport. As far as i can remember Albie wasn't doing that in the beginning. He comes across as a nice guy but I think it's a facade.

[@FirstnameLastname-zq8oy]

@@PalomaNegra873 yeah I’m pretty sure that shot of all three of them turning around at the same time to check out the same girl was supposed to imply that albie is going to grow up to be unfaithful in relationships just like his father and grandfather, and he will probably end up turning into a serial cheater just like them despite how much he doesn’t want to be like them.

[@edithputhy4948]

Albie is not perfect but he's still pretty decent

[@Sienna.Jen2971]

Is it just me or am I picking up on some flirting between these two?

[@crieverytim]

They sound exactly the same as they do in the show. The guy's who play Cameron and esp Ethan were quite different in accent and demeanor when they did their interviews

[@SuperRobertoClemente]

I think they're interviewing on set and they're still somewhat in character. Leo's normal accent has nothing to do with "Essex boy." But man does he nail that kind of type.

Actors are always acting guys. Even here! So whatever chemistry they are portraying, it was planned. And it obv. worked 😀

[@Emily00Strange]

Exactly! Every time actors do interviews together, the public start saying they're dating. Costars tend to have chemistry due to the nature of their job.
