While fans are still buzzing about the jaw-dropping finale of The White Lotus Season 3, here’s a handful of shows that echo its vibe—perfect for diving into next.

"Enlightened"

This sharp, witty gem comes from Laura Dern—who stars as Amy Jellicoe—and The White Lotus mastermind Mike White, who also pops up on screen. Amy’s a corporate bigwig whose public meltdown lands her in a wellness retreat. She returns to work armed with newfound clarity, dead-set on exposing her company’s shady dealings. Dern’s stellar performance carries this clever, ironic tale of self-discovery and corporate chaos.

"The Guest Book"

Ever wonder what wild tales a hotel guestbook could tell? Greg Garcia, the comedic brain behind My Name Is Earl, spins hilarious yarns about the visitors and staff at a mountain retreat in Mount Trace. Inspired by his own quirky habit of leaving fake reviews in hotel logs, Garcia crafts a lighthearted anthology that’s equal parts absurd and endearing—perfect for a breezy escape.

"Saint X"

For those drawn to The White Lotus’ darker edges, this thriller delivers. When college student Alison vanishes during a family vacation on the Caribbean island of Saint X, her body turns up days later on a remote reef. Suspicion falls on resort workers, but the case goes cold. Years later, her sister Emily, now a filmmaker, crosses paths with one of the suspects, sparking a haunting quest to unravel the night Alison died—and who her sister really was.

"The Perfect Couple"

Amelia Sacks (Eve Hewson of Behind Her Eyes) is set to wed Benji, heir to a wealthy Nantucket dynasty, under the watchful eye of his mother, Greer Garrison Winbury (Nicole Kidman), a famed novelist sparing no expense for the big day. But a corpse on the beach shatters the champagne-soaked plans, turning the wedding into a whodunit straight out of Greer’s own books. With lush visuals, quiet luxury vibes, and biting satire of the elite, it’s a White Lotus-esque treat dripping with secrets and suspicion.

Jesse Eisenberg shines as Toby Fleishman, a 47-year-old Manhattan doctor navigating life after divorce. Just as he’s dipping his toes into the dating app pool, his ex-wife Rachel vanishes, leaving him solo with their kids. This sharp, sardonic look at midlife, parenting, and personal reinvention balances humor and heartache, making it a standout for fans of The White Lotus’ blend of wit and human messiness.
