It has come to my attention, via social media and blogs, that a consensus is brewing: The theme for White Lotus Season 3, set in Thailand and tailored to the mood, is already hated and vilified. People are wondering, it seems, where the eerie toy piano and altered ooh-woo-ooohs are. I loved the Season 2 theme as much as anyone—it sounded like a chorus of scary cherubs baring their teeth on a Sunday night at Le Bain—but I am here to say the haters of the Season 3 theme song are tripping balls. It is good.
