Yes, Chef: 'The Bear' Renewed for Season Three



Rolling Stone link: https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/the-bear-season-three-renewal-1234870729/

CARMY IS HEADED back into the kitchen. FX has officially renewed The Bear for a third season, which will air on Hulu along with the prior two.

“The Bear, which wowed audiences in its first season only to achieve even greater heights in season two, has become a cultural phenomenon,” Nick Grad, President, FX Entertainment, said in a statement. “We’re so proud to partner with Christopher Storer, Joanna Calo, Josh Senior, and the rest of the creative team, as well as the brilliant cast led by Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. What they and the crew have done is truly remarkable, and we and our partners at Hulu join fans in looking forward to the next chapter in the story of The Bear.”

The first season of The Bear, which was created by Christopher Storer and premiered in 2022, introduced audiences to Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto (Allen White), an acclaimed chef who took over the family sandwich shop in Chicago after the sudden death of his brother. The second season, which arrived this summer, saw Carmy, Sydney Adamu (Edebiri), and Richard “Richie” Jerimovich (Moss-Bachrach) attempting to transform their grimy sandwich joint into a next-level spot.

Rolling Stone‘s critic Alan Sepinwall wrote that “every emotion the show conjures is a palpable, potent one, so that the lighter scenes create the illusion that you’re standing right next to the characters, while the heavier ones make you experience the pain right along with them.”

Loved this show! The Thanksgiving show was an award winning performance by Jamie Lee Curtis for sure.
The last episode was only slightly less intense then that one.

I got tired of the whole 2nd season leading up to the restoration of the diner, and then they hardly showed in the last episode.
I really hope the new diner gets more coverage in Season 3.

Jeremy Allen White won the SAG award for best male actor in a comedy for S1, and he's up for an Emmy for best lead actor in a comedy for S2. In all, the show has 13 Emmy noms for S2, including best comedy series. This is a truly top notch show! (And yeah, it's more of a dramedy than a comedy, but that's how awards are structured.)

I agree about the Thanksgiving episode! It made me sit up and pay attention! Whoa! And it wasn't just Jamie Lee Curtis, although she definitely stood out, but the entire ensemble of well known actors they gathered for that episode. It drained me, too, but it rocked!

I had no doubt it would be back for S3, but confirmation is good. Thanks!
