Has anyone watched "The Bear" on FX? Thoughts? I don't know anything about it... haven't even searched/researched it but just saw a TV ad & it intrigued me.
@kurtsh I love the show. It's even better if you know anything about kitchen culture, but it's not required. There's plenty that involves just family dynamics. There are some episodes in season 2 that are incredibly tense and uncomfortable. It deserves all of the accolades it's gotten. I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with season 3.
@cstephens2 So... It's about a chef? That's what I assertained from the ad but that it. Seems to get getting a whole lot of attention so I was curious.
@kurtsh The basic story is that a chef who's well regarded and been working in fancy upscale international restaurants comes back to Chicago to help salvage the family restaurant after the death of his brother. There's a lot of family drama surrounding why he'd originally left home as well as his return. There's also the individual stories of the various people who work in the kitchen and the new, young manager as well as the older manager.
@cstephens2 Appreciate the intro. I'd done a search but everything seemed spoilery so I stopped. I hate having plot turns spoiled by the web.
I'm gonna go search for past seasons on the streaming services. As long as it's not Hulu, I'll be fine cuz that's pretty much the only service I don't have.
