The Bear is an American psychological comedy-drama television series created by Christopher Storer for FX on Hulu. Jeremy Allen White stars as Carmy Berzatto, an award-winning chef who returns to his hometown of Chicago to manage the chaotic kitchen at his deceased brother's Italian beef sandwich shop. The supporting cast includes Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, Lionel Boyce, Liza Colón-Zayas, Abby Elliott, and Matty Matheson.[1]

All episodes of the first season were released on FX on Hulu on June 23, 2022; the second season was released in its entirety on June 22, 2023. In November 2023, the series was renewed for a third season, which was released on June 26, 2024.[2] Ahead of the third-season premiere, the series was renewed for a fourth season.[3]

The series has received critical acclaim, particularly for its tension, writing and directing, acting performances, technical quality, and production values. Its realistic, accurate portrayal of restaurant and character development have been singled out by critics and the restaurant industry, as well as its approach to themes such as suicide and trauma, among others.[4][5][6][7][8]

The series has won 21 Primetime Emmy Awards including 1 win for Outstanding Comedy Series, twice direction win for Storer, two acting wins for White and Moss-Bachrach, and single acting wins for Edebiri and Colón-Zayas.[9] The Bear has also won four Golden Globe Awards, with acting wins for White and Edebiri and the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy in 2024.[10][11]

Premise

[edit]

A talented young chef named Carmen "Carmy" Anthony Berzatto inherits his family's Italian beef sandwich shop after the suicide of his older brother, Michael. He comes home to Chicago to run it, leaving behind his world of working in Michelin-starred restaurants. He is left to deal with his brother's unresolved debts, a rundown kitchen, and an unruly staff, while dealing with his own pain and family trauma.

[edit]
The logo used for the first season.

FX ordered a pilot for The Bear in March 2021, to be written and directed by series creator Christopher Storer.[15] FX then greenlit the series in October 2021 for a 2022 premiere date.[16] The sandwich shop interior is copied from the Chicago shop Mr. Beef on Orleans Street, in River North. Storer was a frequent patron and a friend of the owner's son.[17]

In July 2022, the series was renewed for a ten-episode second season.[18] In November 2023, it was renewed for a third season.[19] In March 2024, the series was renewed for a fourth season.[20] Parts of the fourth season were filmed during filming for the third season, with production set to restart in 2025.[21][22]

Music

[edit]

The Bear has a soundtrack of 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s alternative and mainstream rock classics, chosen by Storer and executive producer Josh Senior. Some of the songs featured on the show include Chicago-based Wilco with "Spiders (Kidsmoke)", "Impossible Germany", "Via Chicago", and "Handshake Drugs", Radiohead's "Let Down", Van Morrison's "Saint Dominic's Preview", Pearl Jam's "Animal" and "Come Back", Sufjan Stevens' "Chicago", John Mayer's "Last Train Home", Refused's "New Noise", The Breeders' "Saints", Erasure's "A Little Respect", The Replacements' "Bastards of Young", Counting Crows' "Have You Seen Me Lately?", Genesis' "In Too Deep", Nine Inch Nails' "The Day the World Went Away", John Mellencamp's "Check It Out", R.E.M.'s "Oh My Heart" and "Strange Currencies", Weezer's "The Christmas Song", The Smashing Pumpkins' "Disarm", and Taylor Swift's "Love Story".[23][24][25]

Release

[edit]

The Bear premiered on FX on Hulu in the United States on June 23, 2022,[26] and became available internationally in the Star hub on Disney+.[27] The 10-episode second season was released on June 22, 2023.[28] Along with other Hulu content, The Bear became available to stream on Disney+ in the United States via the Hulu hub on December 6, 2023.[29] The third season was released on June 26, 2024.[2]

The Bear has received critical acclaim.[c] On the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the overall series holds a 96% rating.[44] On Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, the overall series has received a score of 86 out of 100.[45]

Season 1

[edit]

For the first season, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an approval rating of 100% with an average rating of 8.7/10, based on 80 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "Like an expertly confected sandwich, The Bear assembles a perfect melange of ingredients and stacks them for optimal satisfaction—and thankfully keeps the crust-iness for extra flavor."[30] Metacritic gave it a weighted average score of 88 out of 100 based on 24 critic reviews.[31]

The American Film Institute named it one of the ten best television programs of the year.[46] The Guardian named it number one of the best 100 TV shows of 2022 and described it as "the best workplace drama since Mad Men".[47][48] The Bear appeared in the top ten on numerous publications' "Best of 2022" lists, including first for The A.V. Club, BBC, People, and TVLine, among others.[49]

Season 2

[edit]

On Rotten Tomatoes, 99% of 111 critic reviews are positive for the second season, and the average rating is 9.3/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Instead of reinventing the menu, The Bear's second season wisely opts to toss its lovable characters into another frying pan of adversity, lets 'em cook, and serves up yet another supremely satisfying dish."[32] Metacritic assigned it a weighted average score of 92 out of 100 based on 43 critic reviews.[33]

For the second year in a row, the American Film Institute named The Bear one of the ten best television programs of the year.[50] The Bear appeared on many publications' lists of the best TV shows of 2023, including Rolling Stone, The New York Times, The Hollywood Reporter, and People, among others.[51][52][53][54]

Season 3

[edit]

On Rotten Tomatoes, 89% of 101 critics gave the third season a positive review, with an average rating of 7.9/10. The website's critics consensus states. "Having set an exceedingly high standard of excellence for itself, The Bear spends its third season simmering, stewing, and giving off an aroma that whets the appetite."[34] The website also reported that the season was "as audacious as ever" and it "still seems to continue delivering compelling and often intense television with performances that are so dependably brilliant that they're not even mentioned in most of the reviews. Instead, at this point in a show's life, it's easier to find faults in its sameness or changes, or in its attempts to repeat or outdo itself."[36] Metacritic assigned it a weighted average score of 80 out of 100 based on 45 critic reviews.[35]

Genre classification

[edit]

The classification of The Bear as a comedy in certain award ceremonies, specifically the Primetime Emmys, has attracted media attention, given its dramatic style and focus on heavy topics.[110][111][4] Proponents of the series' categorization as "comedy" argue that the show unfolds as a dark comedy marked by ridiculous situations[112] and comedic timing,[113] relies on the comedic effect inherent to chaos,[112] is a comedy of errors[114] and is heavily characterized by back-and-forth banter[113] or snark.[114]

In 2024, the series became the most-nominated series in comedy categories at the Emmys with 23 nominations, surpassing 30 Rock which had 22 nominations in 2009.[115] However, it went on to lose the award for Outstanding Comedy Series, which it had been heavily favored to win, to Hacks, with The Hollywood Reporter suggesting that there was an insult among voters over its continued classification as a comedy.[116]
