Lucky 13 “In these troubling times, the world desperately needs a hero … unfortunately, we’ve got him,” observes a promotional video for the 13th season of HBO’s LAST WEEK TONIGHT WITH JOHN OLIVER, which drops new episodes Mondays on Crave. A satirical, insightful look at current events in the U.S. and around the globe, the 33-time EMMY®-winning series features Oliver’s hilarious, expertly honed perspective on today’s pressing issues, as well as lesser-reported topics that both inform and entertain. Times have certainly changed since LAST WEEK TONIGHT WITH JOHN OLIVER debuted in 2014, but the show remains more vital than ever, with a new article in The Ringer declaring admiringly, “John Oliver Keeps Pushing the Rock Up the Hill.”

Love and the Lotus Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, and for anyone craving a quick romantic getaway, a last-minute visit to THE WHITE LOTUS might be in order! What could go wrong? On second thought, it’s probably safer to cuddle up on the sofa and simply watch THE WHITE LOTUS, all three seasons of which are on Crave. A highly anticipated fourth season is on the way, and the most recent casting announcement confirms that veteran actor and comedian Sandra Bernhard is entering the fray. She’s joining previously announced cast members Helena Bonham Carter, Steve Coogan, Caleb Jonte Edwards, Alexander Ludwig, Chris Messina, and AJ Michalka. After previous seasons took place in Hawaii, Italy, and Thailand, respectively, Season 4 moves the action to France.
