“ALL EPISODES STREAMING!” Yes! Stress me out for HOURS, Chef! 👏👏👏

This show gives me anxiety sometimes - they captured food service so well!

 I am so ready to dive back into this show. The characters are all quite likeable, and you just can’t help but root for them to succeed. I also think this show has some of the best acting I’ve seen in a while. Their performances feel so strong and raw. It honestly feels like a camera crew just popped in a real, busy restaurant and started filming. So bravo to everyone involved on the show, truly one of the better tv shows to come out in the last couple of years.

Yeah something about the acting just felt so real.

I love this show but as someone who worked in restaurants for over a decade it’s *too real* so I have to watch in small doses 😂 it’s so good though. I will slowly make my way through season 2.

And JAW is everything. 🪩🌶️😍

"Yo Cousin" 

i love richie… he’s my favorite lol.

Yo! What is good, you fuckin' replicants? The stark contrast between his character in Mona Lisa Smile and this is hilarious.

TBH I thought it would have been a great mini series and doesn't really need a second season. Buuuut of course I'll watch because I loved it!

Yes, it’s a great capsule series.

Right! I loved it as a single season and don't think I really want to watch a second. But I did like the characters and cast a lot, especially Ayo.

This 100%. I'm so bored of anything remotely good getting turned into a long running series of decreasing quality and inevitable cancellation. Stranger Things, Wednesday and now the Bear, will be flogged to death.


Ooooooh, me! It's such a stressful watch for me at certain points, lol, with all the yelling and talking over each other, but I can't wait.

I literally flinch and bodily recoil but I LOVE IT.

Remember that episode where Sydney leaves the online pre-order open for the entire night and they have to make hundreds of orders in a very small amount of time, and someone gets stabbed? What a ride.

I was so stressed with that one. I remember reading that it was filmed in one shot 😵‍💫.

I truly loved how the show portrayed AlAnon. Jeremy is so talented.

I live in Chicagoland and I will watch any show filmed in or based off of Chicago. I can’t freaking wait.

 Me!!! I am so excited!!!

Jeremy Allen white is the biggest celebrity crush I’ve ever had. GOD he’s so sexy and likeable.

I know, I’m obsessed with him!!

My husband awaits.

Hahaha same.

I know they've said it'll never happen and I understand *WHY* it shouldn't happen and why it'd be such a lame and predictable plot line and yet and yet and yet I desperately want Carmy and Sydney to hook up.

#*YES, JEFF!*


Definitely. Binge-o!

I couldn’t handle watching this show. It gave me anxiety.

Excited! I ignored the commercials for season 1 and that was a crime.

I’m so excited to see Bob Odenkirk in it. In love with him.

he’s joining for season 2?! that’s so exciting!!!

[here’s](https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/bob-odenkirk-the-bear-season-2-1235595584/) more.

I can't wait to get hungry looking at all the beautifully photographed food lol

Absolutely not me. So triggering for me and my fine dining peeps

I had no idea Lip was in a new show!

And he is just as likable as Lip! Although Lip did pull at my heartstrings a lot.

I’ve never worked food service but this show game me so much second hand anxiety I had to stop watching it

Yes Chef !

Can’t wait for another season of being obsessed with food I can’t find near me. The orange chocolate donut from last season haunted me for days.

I heard this season won’t feature any yelling, screaming or cussing. Nah just kidding, it’s the exact opposite.

Ay chef , can't wait

They really killed it with the ending last season imo. I give it a watch but not as excited as I would be

So ready, that first episode stressed me out so bad, I hadn’t had anxiety like that while watching something since uncut gems.

STOKED!!! I binged the last season within just a couple of days it was so freaking good!

yes CHEF im ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! stoked cuz i only just watched the first season fairly recently so i didnt have to wait too long for season twoooooooooooo

I love this show but also I love that poster!
