The Bear is a show for anyone starving for some good fucking food
In the time since it premiered on Hulu as the surprise hit of last summer, FX’s The Bearhas often been regarded as stressful TV — usually in a complementary way. The comedy-drama, about the struggles of a Chicago sandwich shop to stay afloat amidst various personal and professional crises, is definitely one of the most relentlessly-paced series streaming right now, full of people yelling and alarms beeping and a catastrophic accident always seconds away. But calling The Bear stressful does a poor job of describing why it was so magnetic, or why anyone would blaze through its 10-episode first season in no time at all. A better word would be alive. The Bear has a pulse in a way few TV shows on the air do right now, and to watch it is to hear that pulse pounding in your ear.
