Four episodes in and I'm not sure I can watch another. Dull, it is so dull.

Nothing has really happened and so far it seems that all the budget has been spent on making the series look good rather than on decent story writing.

My partner and I love The Bear and the actors are brilliant but this has to be one of the most boring series I've ever seen which is unfortunate.

I'm hoping it picks up and this is all leading to a bigger storyline, but so far, the whole thing is just drama, shouting, flashbacks, more shouting, fall outs, more shouting and then the credits roll. (Same as the last series, but with no actual story so far) It isn't terrible, and is put together really well, but how anyone can give this a 10/10 is beyond me.

For me the first 2 episodes of this season fell flat. I thought the first 2 seasons were great. However once we got past the title card of this episode it has picked up into what I know is the 'The Bear' a fast paced intense show. I loved the way it was quick. I think Carmy needs to take a break . He is just annoying.

Overall 7.7/10

Episode 3 of The Bear season 3 is a different dimension entirely. It's not about fun or joy; you won't find yourself laughing. Instead, the episode masterfully pulls you into the kitchen, making you feel the palpable pressure and stress. As a viewer, you wouldn't expect to feel this level of intensity, but this episode makes it happen. It begins with small cracks, little leaks of tension, which steadily grow until, by the end, the stress and pressure completely flood you, almost consuming you. You don't just intellectually understand how hard it is to run a Michelin-star restaurant; you viscerally experience it. It's a depiction that is both painful and wonderfully executed at the very same time.

It's hard watching a plane crash.

He's become a psychopath overnight because he got locked in the fridge.

Look, he's had a terrible childhood with an insane family and is a mess, but for 3 seasons he was ALSO a good guy who we wanted to see win. He's no longer a good guy and i Wouldn't mind if he fails - because he's being an idiot.

It's hard the way they film it in hellish smash cuts of destruction of this restaurant that we all care about. We're watching Carm ruin all of it due to emotional immaturity. That's hard to witness!

And it's also a bit sad no one can rein him in. The writers have made the financers and everyone around him just endlessly yelling. Why can't Unc or the sister just take his CC away??? Because the writers want the drahmah

Fair enough but I fast forwarded through the entire episode and still Know everything that happened.

I loved this. There's hardly any plot, but the way I see it, the previous seasons have done the heavy lifting as far as character work, and now we are reaping the benefits. This is the exact right moment in this show where you could get away with an episode like this. It's like that honeymoon period in a relationship where you're just happy to be around the other person. We're literally just watching these people work, and yet I can't look away. There's enough tension bubbling under the surface to maintain a sense of stakes, and the way it's all cut up and shot is beyond impressive. I'm not sure how the rest of the season will turn out (some of the conflict in episode 2 felt forced, not gonna lie), but so far there have been two very interesting standalone episodes that are like visual and auditory crack to take in. Very pleasing to the eye and ear.
