Skeptical about "The Bear" hype from my brother in Fresno, then I watched 6 episodes in one night
My brother in Fresno kept telling me to watch The Bear for like 3 months and I kept putting it off because I figured it was just another loud kitchen show. Last Tuesday I was sick on the couch with a 101 fever and put on episode 1 around 8pm, next thing I know it's 2am and I've burned through 6 episodes. The way they shoot the kitchen scenes made my chest tight, like I was actually in there during a dinner rush. I think the episode with the one long take is what got me hooked for real. Anyone else start this show thinking it would be overhyped and then lose a whole night to it?
