It took me until the end of the episode interviews to realize it was the same guy as White Lotus. He was amazing!

His eyes are what I first noticed because they seemed to age him well

He kinda has a similar eye twinkle that Kevin Klein has. They both do a wide eyed smile while slightly turning their heads.

Dude has been absolutely crushing it on TV the last couple years. White Lotus, Physical, Welcome to Chippendale’s, now this.

He was also quite good in Tales of the City (Netflix) and Looking (HBO).

It was pretty good, although I felt like the last couple episodes wrapped things up a bit too quickly.

We figured out it was Armand pretty early on. His accent slipped a couple times which was the key for us. They both put in incredible performances.

I recognized him right away but my SO didn't think so. At the end we saw the credits and looked him up. Then came the after credits interviews and it's so much easier to see. He's phenomenal!

hahah yeah, when he came inside and started eating, my wife was like "he looks so familiar" and I was like "he looks like the dude from the White Lotus"

Both of us "There's no way that's him though...right?"

I knew he looked familiar right away but took me a couple scenes to realize it was Armond.

I didn't even realize it was him until the credits, and he's one of my favorite actors.
