Jennifer Coolidge Is Back In The Season Two Trailer For “The White Lotus”
Survivor and The Amazing Race alum Mike White‘s HBO show The White Lotus already did what it had to do by giving Jennifer Coolidge a long overdue Emmy-worthy role that she tackled to the ground and suffocated to death with her magnificent bosom. She killed that shit and has the Emmy to prove it. But as it turns out, she left her character, a ditsy, bereaved heiress named Tanya McQuoid, only mostly dead and married to the traveling businessman she hooked up with at the end of the first season. And as we know, TWL was picked up for a second season with a new cast and a new location. Variety reports that TWL will once again be doing what it’s supposed to do because Jennifer is the only returning cast member (other than the aforementioned husband played by Jon Gries, you know Lazlo who lived in Val Kilmer’s closet in Real Genius, and yes I patted myself on the back and called myself the REAL real genius for pulling that one out of my dark, twisted subconscious) for S2 which takes place at a different White Lotus resort in Sicily.
The new season finds Tanya and Lazlo (here simply named “Greg”) traveling to a Sicilian White Lotus resort and joining Aubrey Plaza as “a married woman named Harper Spiller, who is on vacation with her husband and friends,” F. Murray Abraham, Michael Imperioli, and some new fellow as Sicilian-American horn-dogs plus Tom Hollander and a few other youngins I have never seen before in my life. Good luck to all of them because Jennifer’s gonna bury them all under several metric tons of white-hot ACTING! Vesuvius could neva! Here’s the trailer.
Well, goddammit! I hate when I can figure out the mystery just from the trailer. Consider this a *SPOILER ALERT* but it’s obvious that Lazlo isn’t actually cheating on Jennifer. For one- that would be utterly ridiculous, and I won’t entertain the thought a second longer. The most obvious explanation for why Lazlo was getting busy without her on this trip is because he’s been building a secret lair in the closet of their suite to house his time machine, which he cruelly used on Micheal Imperioli because I was just watching The Sopranos yesterday and he did not look like that AT. ALL.
SEE! He even used it on himself.
