Tomorrow

The Bear Season 3 premier was a stunning episode that shows why this is one of the best shows on television. It's slow paced without much dialogue but beautiful nonetheless. You can tell that this show has a very talented crew of people who genuinely are passionate about it. The music was fantastic, the directing was brilliant, and the acting was subtle but amazing anyway. Overall the premiere was amazing and I can't wait to keep watching. The only reason I give it a 9 instead of a 10 is because it doesn't show the plot of the season or progress it in anyway. But I'm confident the plot will kick in next episode and the season will surpass the other two.

A smashing start to the new season of one of the best shows out there. A masterclass in editing and cinematography. A clever and complex combination of many of the threads from the first seasons and a deeper look into how Carmy became the chef he is. Demanding for those who aren't familiar with the show but highly rewarding and promising for those who are already hooked. In terms of dialogue, less is indeed better sometimes. The music was ever so peaceful and Jeremy Allen's charisma exudes in every frame. Let's not forget the dishes and how the show continues to use them as metaphors for the characters' thoughts and personality while also adding to the narrative. Excellent.

If seasons 1 & 2 explored the boundaries of producing anxiety in the audience this is the benzo to bring everything down into a hazy artificial calm. I have never really enjoyed recap episodes but this recontextualized and revealed new things and fleshed out things only implied in seasons 1 & 2. It was a refreshing intro to a usually panic inducing mood on this show. Seeing how past events shaped Carm all in succession even though completely out of phase made a potentially sleepy episode engaging and thought provoking. I kept waiting for the shoe to drop but then it dawned on me that it would all happen later as the cut to black and fuzzed out audio crescendo signaled the end.

Wow. I don't know why (deep down I do know why) but this episode hit me like a train. I sobbed like a little kid. This season premiere beautifuly passes all the right emotions. Spot on acting, captivating music. It is also a great recap of Carmy's journey. A rather silent but powerful episode that is beautifuly curated. Every shot, every moment is throughly tought upon. Not one moment goes in vain. A showcase episode on all the right things about The Bear: excellent acting, great music, beautifully shot moments. It is also quite intense. Keep up the good work. Haven't seen the full season but as of this moment it is in my top 3 episodes of the show.

This series continues to surprise, showing Carmy's path in the past 5 years. Exploring his creativity and extreme passion, as well as his strive to be perfect. The montage basically proves that he would not be able to sustain a relationship and be the perfectionist he wants to be at the same time. Having said that, I dont think he can live without her.

This is also by far the best series in terms of showing the food preparations and beautiful meal courses. The direction of this episode was amazing, you feel the pain and energy that Carmy has put into his craft to get to this point. Although it is not as good as "Forks" or "Fishes", it was a great start to Season three.
