5 shows to watch if you love The White Lotus

Here is a list of five shows like HBO's The White Lotus, which capture the show's whacky and dark humor and a social commentary on rich people:

5) Beef

If you loved watching the dark humor and characters doing morally ambiguous things in The White Lotus, you will love Netflix's dark comedy series Beef. Created by Lee Sung Jin, the show follows two strangers (Steven Yeun and Ali Wong) whose life intertwines during a rage road incident.

The show beautifully captures the weirdness of the HBO series and bonus points that it is an anthology series that was renewed for Season 2 in October 2024 with a new ensemble cast.

4) Euphoria

Another HBO show created by Sam Levinson revolves around drugs and addiction. Since drug addiction is a constant theme in The White Lotus, you will enjoy watching Euphoria, which follows a teenager, Rue, who gets a second chance at life after getting sober and returning from rehab.

Starring Zendaya in one of her best performances yet, the show explores ideas of sexuality and drug addiction and the chaos they cause, especially in young people's lives. It's a great time to catch up on the show, as it will soon return with Season 3.

3) Nine Perfect Strangers

This drama series checks all The White Lotus boxes, from a luxury resort to a bunch of strangers thrust together close. The Hulu drama show stars Nicole Kidman in Season 1, and follows nine strangers who arrive at the Tranquillum House, a wellness retreat.

The luxury retreat is mysterious, and soon, the strangers learn secrets about each other and the place, which will turn into one chaotic event. The show returned for Season 2 with a new cast starring Murray Bartlett and Annie Murphy.

2) Succession

HBO's breakthrough and Emmy award-winning drama series Succession surely deserves the second spot on this list. If you loved watching rich white people and their menial problems in The White Lotus, the Roys will probably put them to shame.

The show follows the Roy family, the owner of Global Media Waystar RoyCo. After their patriarch announces his retirement, his four children do anything in their power to inherit the family business. The show is reminiscent of the power struggles and fraught relationships, similar to White's series.

1) Schitt's Creek

The show that truly encapsulates all the weirdness of the HBO series is the sitcom Schitt's Creek, created by Eugene and Dan Levy. You might have seen many rags to riches, but this story is about riches to rags. The Rose family is left penniless after their business manager frauds them. They are forced to resort to their only remaining asset, the titular small town.

If you enjoyed Victoria Ratliff's over-the-top accent and mannerisms in Season 3, you would love watching Moira Rose, the sarcastic queen and the Rose matriarch. The show won 24 Canadian Screen Awards and can be streamed on Netflix.
