Goodbye

This was a great season for the bear. A majorly MASSIVE step up from season 3. Im so glad I went into this with high hopes cuz IT DIDN'T DISAPPOINT AT ALL. I loved the opening to this season and im glad that we have character focused episodes. All the actors and actresses did such an amazing job in conveying emotions. Like in 4x9 i genuinely felt sad for donna. Losing ur son in that way and thinking back reflecting what you couldve done was so heartbreaking. This episode ended off the season greatly cant wait to see whats next to come for what i think and what probably mostly everyone can agree will be the final season of this masterpiece.

This episode made me very angry because there were so many things I wanted to see explored and we got a 30 minute conversation. Wow I'm actually impressed by how good that was. Everyone finally being honest was really nice to see. I feel with modern writing everyone is so repressed you never get to see a characters motives and drives like this. It was refreshing to see everyone be so raw here. I'm feeling just as nervous as the characters are in this situation about what is going to happen to the restaurant but damn it really was therapeutic to just let everyone say their peace and see where their feelings intersected on the same issues. That's a heck of a cliffhanger but there is simply no way to resolve everything that is going on in one episode like that.

I like how Richie and Jessica's conversation gets referenced in this talk and how something he was just expressing gets talked about. I've honestly never seen TV like this who takes a microscope to a few characters and just gives them that much time to just exist and work out their story in front of the audience. Very cool to see.

This season is major step up from season 3 , but still falls short compared the highs that were season 1 and 2 . With that being said , this season had a lot more heart and each episode had some stand out moment .

Every performance was Emmy-worthy . Ayo Edebiri delivers her best performance yet capturing the vulnerability of the character perfectly , making the season feel at times like season 1 .

But the show in my opinion spent too much time outside the kitchen for this season . I wished for more one take episodes or montages in the restaurant but this season mostly focuses on the characters outside the kitchen .

With all that being said i think this season lays the groundwork for what I'm sure will be an emotional final season . That is if FX decide to renew the show one final time.

Holy cannoli. I was part of the gang that actually enjoyed season 3 - so I was excited for the fourth one. Seriously, this show continues to prove it's in a league of its own, blending the wild, high-octane energy of a buzzing kitchen with gut-punching emotional stories that hit you right in the feels. From the very first second to the finale, this season is a total feast for your eyes and your soul.

But let's be real, the finale episode? It might not be some huge, explosive blockbuster, but the emotional impact? Yeah, that's massive. The writing is sharp. This finale feels like the ultimate setup for what's next. Season 5 is gonna be a total emotional rollercoaster, and this is truly the beginning of the end.

And can we talk about the acting in that finale? Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, and Abby Elliott just absolutely crushed it. Their performances are so raw, so real. Every single one of them brought their absolute A-game, making that final episode unforgettable for me.

This season is a wild, heartfelt ride about family, passion, and busting your butt to be the best. Season 4 nails every single beat, ending on an emotional note and leaves you buzzing for more.

This episode clears up alot of things that needed to be aired out. It's done so realistically and well acted by all the major players. Once I realized the episode is going to take place entirely out back of the restaurant I got settled in for an acting tour de force by everyone involved. Ayo should have the Emmy on lock this year plus Jeremy and Ebon are basically locks too. I loved this season and I found it emotionally the best season yet. Some may call melodramatic but I just think the show has built up to this and is now unlocking it's true potential and delivering the goods. I hope they do one last season just to show Sydney in full swing. This show is hers now.
