The Bear Spoilers - Tumblr Posts
The fact that two of the best second seasons of television I've ever watched both have iconic chaotic family dinner episodes and olivia coleman’s acting is a weird coincidence that I think should be taken into account for the future of visual media.
Carmen Berzatto from the bear and Kendall Roy from succession
Definitely a big problem with The Bear S3 is that the show clearly wants to cash in on the love from real life celebrity chefs but that type of hero worship (which made the season finale nearly unbearable to watch) contradicts one of the main conceits of season one:
fine dining restaurants are kinda evil. They're beautiful sure but Carmy's flashbacks to New York were about the stress and oppression that is produced in those settings.
That's why when Carmy confronts his former boss at the end of season 3, it's confusing as hell. I never thought this guy was the villain of the show, I barely thought of him as an actual character. I thought he represented fine dining culture at it's worst.
But no, in a roomful of real celebrity chefs, which the show anxiously needs to make look as good as possible, he now becomes an outlier, the only one whose evil, the one who personally fucked Carmy up. He doesn't represent anything anymore, he is now a real character that the audience doesn't really know anything about or quite frankly cares about much at all. What a waste of time to see them fight over a lesson learned in season one. Better to be kind than to be great, lest thy be a robot.
I really like the dynamic between the Berzattos
