Fans of The White Lotus have named their favorite character from the third season, drawing comparisons to the beloved Tanya McQuoid. Following the riveting season finale that aired on Sunday night (April 6), Mike White's acclaimed series has sparked much fanfare and debate. Parker Posey's portrayal of Victoria Ratliff has earned her the title of one of the standout stars this season.
Throughout their stay at the Thai resort, Victoria, alongside her husband Timothy (Jason Isaacs) and kids Lochlan (Sam Nivola), Saxon (Patrick Schwarzenegger), and Piper (Sarah Catherine Hook), captured audiences just like Jennifer Coolidge's Tanya did in the first two installments with her sense of entitlement and unique charm. Beginning with an over-the-top Southern accent in her debut episode, Victoria has consistently entertained viewers with her witty dialogue, reports the Irish Star . After a shocking season finale, which we will keep under wraps for those who haven't seen it, Victoria has been hailed as the legitimate successor to Tanya's iconic role.
On X (formerly Twitter), the accolades rolled in, with one viewer declaring: "Parker Posey on The White Lotus this season was the best character they added since Jennifer Coolidge I said what I said." Her performance didn't just win a few fans; many are hailing her as this season's highlight for her comedic genius: "Victoria Ratliff (Parker Posey) is the best character on White Lotus this season. Pure comedy.
" And adding to the chorus of praise, another expressed love for Parker Posey's captivating turn: "The best part of The White Lotus Season 3? The insanely delicious accents and character from Parker Posey." Yet another fan exclaimed their adoration: "I adore Parker Posey's Victoria Ratliff. For all her superficiality, she's so wise and real.
Up there on the best White Lotus characters list surely." With a fifth person excitedly chimed in: "Best episode of the season, hands down. Parker Posey basically replaced Jennifer Coolidge as the tone deaf White woman character and I absolutely love what she is doing this season.
"They about to sweep awards season again. Give Parker and Jason [Isaacs] their Golden Globes now." Posey could find herself basking in the limelight of award-winning glory if she continues to charm both viewers and critics.
Coolidge's own performance garnered her two Primetime Emmy Awards for Best Supporting Actress in both 2022 and 2023 for her contributions to the popular HBO drama. The White Lotus is streaming now on Max..
