[This story contains spoilers for The White Lotus seasons one, two and three.]

Though the beloved Jennifer Coolidge isnt in The White Lotusseason three, she still wants her character avenged.

While speaking with Forbes recently, the actress noted shes keeping up with the new season thats taking place in Thailand and shes envious as hell.

Coolidge played fan-favorite Tanya in the first two seasons of The White Lotus before her character met a tragic demiseat the end of the second installment. (Who can forget her iconic line: These gays, theyre trying to murder me.) She also won Emmys for both performances. After Forbes Jeff Conway suggested she should return as a twin sister to Tanya, the Riff Raff actress responded, I know! Look, its not like I havent wished or whatever, but it isnt happening. It doesnt matter they dont need me. Mike White can tell a story better than anybody.

Coolidge went on to praise the new season, which has aired two episodes so far. In the first episode [of season three], I felt like Oh, this is going to be really good!I just felt like everything he [White] set up its really eerie youre not quite sure what people are up to yet. My guess? Somethings going to go horribly wrong. I think its really going to go wrong, she said. Mike White, he wants us to have it all, I think. I cant wait.

And its safe to assume Coolidge hopes it all goes horribly wrong for one person in particular: Greg, played by Jon Gries, who made a surprise return in the new season under the name Gary. Tanya and Greg had a toxic marriage in season two, with Greg allegedly hiring someone to kill her. However, Tanya survives the kidnapping only to fall to her death from a boat while trying to escape.

As you know, Jon Gries has shown up. I hope he gets it! I hope they do something terrible to him, Coolidge confessed. And as White Lotus fans know, anything can happen when Whites in charge.

Season three also stars Natasha Rothwell, Walton Goggins, Aimee Lou Wood, Patrick Schwarzenegger,Sarah Catherine Hook, Leslie Bibb, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Carrie Coon, Parker Posey, Dom Hetrakul, Tayme Thapthimthong, Christian Friedel, Morgana OReilly, Lek Patravadi, Shalini Peiris, Sam Nivola, Nicholas Duvernay, Arnas Fedaraviius, Scott Glenn andBlackpinks Lisa Manobal.

Coolidge admitted last year that she was jealous of everyone working on the third installment.
