Hello everyone, fellow lovers of good stories, I hope you're having a great day. On this occasion, I want to share a review with my personal opinions. You see, folks... after a long time, I finally got around to watching The Bear, and believe me when I say it's one of the most powerful things I've ever seen. With this sea of series and movies everywhere, this is one that truly has a soul, its own vibe, and it just steamrolls everything else. It was a series that nobody saw coming, you know? It grabbed the critics, the audience, everyone, and—bam!—left them speechless. It's a real gem. So, let me tell you what it's about. The series introduces us to Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto. This guy is a genius, a super-talented chef who has been killing it in the world of fine dining, working in the most top-tier, Michelin-starred restaurants on the planet. He's at the top of his game, but then, a tragedy strikes.

His older brother, Mikey, passes away, and Carmy has no choice but to return to his roots in Chicago. And what does he inherit? Forget money or a luxury house, no... he inherits "The Original Beef of Chicagoland," the family's sandwich shop. A super traditional place, a total mess, and, to be honest, kind of grimy. That's where it all begins, with a chaotic premise full of emotional and professional problems. Just imagine: Carmy, the perfectionist artist of fine cuisine, suddenly finds himself neck-deep in a world of greasy floors, mountains of debt, a crumbling building, and a kitchen staff that... let's just say, is set in its ways. They don't want his new systems, his French terms, or his ideas of "elevating" the food; they want to do things the way they've always been done.

Hola a todos, amigos amantes de las buenas historias, espero que estén super bien hoy, en esta ocasión, les quiero compartir una reseña con mis opiones personales, verán smogos.. por fin luego de mucho tiempo, me animé a ver The Bear, y créanme cuando les digo que es una de las cosas más brutales que he visto.. con este mar de series y películas que hay por todos lados, esta es una que de verdad tiene alma, tiene su propia onda y le pasa por encima a todo lo demás.. fue una serie que nadie se esperaba, ¿saben? Agarró a la crítica, al público, a todo el mundo y ¡pum!, los dejó con la boca abierta, es una joyita, así que, dejen que les cuente de qué va, la serie nos presenta a Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto. Este pana es un genio, un chef super talentoso que se la ha pasado rompiéndosela en el mundo de la alta cocina, o sea, ha trabajado en los restaurantes más top del planeta, con estrellas Michelin y todo.. está en la cima, pero de repente, pasa una tragedia.
Su hermano mayor, Mikey, se muere, y a Carmy no le queda de otra que volver a sus raíces en Chicago.. qué hereda? Olvídense de la plata o una casa de lujo, no.. hereda "The Original Beef of Chicagoland", la sandwichería de la familia. Un lugar súper tradicional, un desmadre total y, para ser sinceros, medio mugroso.. ahí es donde arranca todo, con una premisa caótica, llena de problemas emocionales y profesionales, imagínense: Carmy, el artista perfeccionista de la cocina fina, de la nada termina metido hasta el cuello en un mundo de pisos grasosos, deudas por montones, un edificio que se cae a pedazos y un equipo de cocina que… digamos que tiene sus mañas. No quieren sus sistemas nuevos, ni sus palabritas en francés, ni sus ideas de “elevar” la comida, ellos quieren hacer las cosas como se han hecho toda la vida.

A quick heads-up: when you hit play on the first episode, brace yourself, because the intensity is immediate. The series throws you headfirst into the frantic pace of a professional kitchen during the lunch rush, and it doesn't give you a second to breathe. The shouting, the constant "Yes, Chef!", the clatter of pots and pans... it's a sensory overload. The way it's filmed is... wow, incredible. They use a style they call "hip-hop editing," full of super sharp cuts, rapid-fire zooms, and high-speed montages of sizzling meat, chopped onions, and hands moving nonstop. It's a perfect and delicious way to convey stress and anxiety in their purest form. My heart was about to pound out of my chest, and I remember thinking, "Can I really watch this? It's giving me an anxiety attack!"

It's designed to make you feel that pressure-cooker environment, that suffocating feeling that aims to bring out the best in the characters, forcing them to be faster, smarter, better. I was about to quit, but then there were these small moments of calm, flashes of humanity, that made me stay—and I'm so glad I did. Because at the center of all this beautiful chaos is Carmy. Jeremy Allen White delivers a performance that is, at the very least, a 10 out of 10. He's already won a Golden Globe and a Critics' Choice Award for this role, and he more than deserves them. You can see him carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders; he's not just fighting a failing business, he's drowning in his own grief and trauma.

He's mourning his brother, and his introverted, contained personality feels like it's about to explode. But at the same time, he has a fierce determination to keep the restaurant afloat, to turn it into something respectable, as if saving the shop is his way of saving a piece of his brother. His performance is super physical; it's all internal. You see his focus, his genius, but also the fragility and the rage he keeps bottled up. It's magnetic; he completely draws you in.

Ojo, les tengo que hacer una pequeña advertencia, cuando le den play al primer episodio, agárrense, porque la intensidad es inmediata.. la serie te tira de cabeza al ritmo frenético de una cocina profesional en plena hora del almuerzo, y no te da ni un respiro, los gritos, el constante "¡Sí, Chef!", el ruido de las ollas y los sartenes... es un bombardeo a los sentidos.. la forma en que está grabada es… uf, increíble. Usan un estilo que llaman "edición hip-hop", lleno de cortes super bruscos, zooms rapidísimos y montajes a mil por hora de carne friéndose, cebollas picándose y manos moviéndose sin parar, es una manera perfecta y deliciosa de transmitirte el estrés y la ansiedad en su estado más puro.. a mí el corazón se me iba a salir, y recuerdo que pensé: "¿En serio puedo ver esto? ¡Me está dando un ataque de ansiedad!"
Está hecha para que sientas ese ambiente de olla a presión, esa sensación de que te ahogas que busca sacar lo mejor de los personajes, obligándolos a ser más rápidos, más listos, mejores.. estuve a punto de dejarla, pero de repente había unos pequeños momentos de calma, unos destellos de humanidad, que me hicieron quedarme y menos mal que lo hice. Porque en el centro de todo este hermoso caos está Carmy, Jeremy Allen White se manda una actuación que es, mínimo, un 10 de 10.. ya se ganó un Globo de Oro y un Critics Choice por este papel, y los tiene más que merecidos, puedes ver cómo carga con todo el peso del mundo, no solo está luchando con un negocio que se cae a pedazos; está hundido en su propio dolor y en sus traumas.
Está de luto por su hermano, y su personalidad, así introvertida y contenida, sientes que está a punto de explotar.. pero a la vez, tiene una determinación brutal para mantener el restaurante a flote, para convertirlo en algo respetable, como si salvar el local fuera su forma de salvar un pedacito de su hermano, su actuación es súper física, todo va por dentro. Le ves la concentración, la genialidad, pero también la fragilidad y la rabia que se guarda.. es magnético, te atrapa por completo.

And the thing is, the series would be nothing without the rest of the cast. Every character feels real, you believe them, and that's so important. You have Richie, played by Ebon Moss-Bachrach, the loud, obnoxious, and real-pain-in-the-neck "cousin," who was Mikey's best friend. At first, I swear, you'll want to strangle him. He objects to every single change Carmy tries to make. But as the season progresses, you start to understand that beneath all that chaos lies a deep pain and a super loyal, albeit twisted, love for the restaurant, for Carmy, and for Mikey's memory. His character evolution is one of the most moving things I've seen on TV in a long time.

Then there's Sydney, the young cook, with ambition pouring out of her, who joins the team because she admires Carmy. She brings this new energy, the faith that the place can truly become something better. In a way, she's our eyes inside the kitchen, and her dynamic with Carmy—a mix of him being her mentor, their competition, and their mutual respect—is the heart of the show's professional drama. What really blew my mind is that even though the episodes are short (most are around 30 minutes), every character is so well-written and the performances are insane. From Marcus, the quiet veteran baker obsessed with finding the perfect donut, to Tina, who starts off super grumpy but ends up being the most loyal of all... you really end up growing fond of every single one of them.

You suffer with them, feel their frustrations, and celebrate their small victories. The cast's dedication to authenticity helps a lot. I read that they fully immersed themselves in the culinary world. Jeremy Allen White went to chef school and worked in real restaurant kitchens. There are no hand doubles here; when you see those close-ups of hands cutting or plating a dish with perfect technique, it's them. It's one of those little details that, added to the incredible acting, makes this whole world feel completely real.

Y es que la serie no sería nada sin el resto del elenco, cada personaje se siente real, te lo crees, y es super importante, tienes a Richie, interpretado por Ebon Moss-Bachrach, el "primo" ruidoso, odioso y que es un verdadero dolor de cabeza, que era el mejor amigo de Mikey.. al principio, te juro que lo quieres estrangular, le pone un pero a cada cambio que Carmy intenta hacer. Pero conforme avanza la temporada, empiezas a entender que debajo de todo ese caos hay un dolor profundísimo y un amor súper leal, aunque medio torcido, por el restaurante, por Carmy y por el recuerdo de Mikey.. su evolución como personaje es una de las cosas más emotivas que he visto en la tele en mucho tiempo.
Luego está Sydney, la cocinera joven, con una ambición que se le sale por los poros y que se une al equipo porque admira a Carmy, ella trae como esta energía nueva, la fe de que el lugar de verdad puede ser algo mejor, en parte, es como nuestros ojos dentro de la cocina, y la dinámica que tiene con Carmy —que es una mezcla de que él es su mentor, pero compiten, pero se respetan— es el corazón de todo el drama profesional de la serie. Lo que de verdad me voló la cabeza es que, aunque los capítulos son cortitos (la mayoría dura como 30 minutes), cada personaje está súper bien escrito y las actuaciones son una locura.. desde Marcus, el panadero callado y veterano con su obsesión por encontrar la dona perfecta, hasta Tina, que al principio es súper gruñona pero termina siendo la más leal de todos… de verdad, terminas encariñándote con cada uno.
Sufres con ellos, sientes sus frustraciones y celebras sus pequeñas victorias, para que todo sea más auténtico, el elenco ayuda mucho.. leí por ahí que se metieron de lleno en el tema de la cocina. Jeremy Allen White fue a una escuela de chefs y trabajó en cocinas de restaurantes de verdad, aquí no hay dobles de manos, cuando ves esos close-ups a las manos cortando o armando un plato con una técnica perfecta, son ellos.. es uno de esos detallitos que se suma a las actuaciones increíbles y hace que todo este mundo se sienta completamente real.

And here's the key: although the kitchen is the setting, the series isn't really about cooking. That's just the pretext. At its core, the show explores universal themes like loss, grief, brotherhood, family, and overcoming adversity. It's a raw and honest look at what it means to be a person trying not to fall to pieces when everything around you is collapsing. It's a story about the chaotic, complicated, yet unconditional love of family. It's about finding a new direction when you're lost and discovering that you can only achieve your wildest dreams when you have the right people by your side. In that way, it's a perfect metaphor for life itself: it's brutal and stressful, but it's also filled with moments of pure magic, connection, and unexpected joy. Okay, I have to go full nerd for a second to talk about the music.

The soundtrack is another character in this story. It's packed with killer tracks from the '80s and '90s: Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Counting Crows, John Mellencamp. It's the kind of music that would actually be playing in a place like that, the music these characters grew up with. It's not just background noise; it shapes the mood of every scene, whether it's ramping up the tension during a chaotic service or giving us a reflective, heart-wrenching moment. It just completely immerses you. And please, I'm asking you, do yourselves a favor and watch it in its original language. Hearing everyone's accents and the raw, unfiltered shouting in the kitchen is key to the experience. By the end of the first season, I was speechless.

This is a series that makes you feel everything. It's stressful, it's funny, it's heartbreaking, and in the end, it leaves you full of hope. It's a gem, a masterpiece that proves you don't need huge budgets or sci-fi concepts to create something truly special. So, my final verdict? I'm giving The Bear a solid 9.5/10. The only reason it's not a perfect 10 is that the initial intensity might be too much for some people, and I get that. But if you can survive that first wave of anxiety, the reward is one of the most heartfelt and well-crafted series of the last few years. It's a story about finding family in the midst of war, about the beauty in the struggle, and about the hope that can be born from even the deepest pain. And well, that's it for today's review! I hope you liked it, take care! Byebye!

Y aquí está la clave: aunque la cocina es el escenario, la serie en realidad no se trata de cocinar.. eso es solo el pretexto, en el fondo, la serie explora temas universales como la pérdida, el duelo, la hermandad, la familia y la superación. Es un vistazo súper crudo y honesto a lo que significa ser una persona tratando de no romperse en mil pedazos cuando todo a su alrededor se derrumba.. es una historia sobre el amor caótico, complicado pero incondicional por la familia, se trata de encontrar un nuevo norte cuando estás perdido y descubrir que solo puedes lograr tus sueños más locos cuando tienes a la gente correcta a tu lado. De esa forma, es una metáfora perfecta de la vida misma.. es brutal y estresante, pero también está llena de momentos de pura magia, de conexión y de alegrías que no te esperas.. bueno, tengo que ponerme modo nerd un segundo para hablar de la música.
El soundtrack es otro personaje en esta historia.. está lleno de temazos de los 80 y 90: Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Counting Crows, John Mellencamp, es el tipo de música que de verdad estaría sonando en un lugar como ese, la música con la que estos personajes crecieron. No es solo ruido de fondo; le da forma al ambiente de cada escena, ya sea subiendo la tensión en un servicio caótico o regalándonos un momento para reflexionar que te pega en el corazón, simplemente te sumerge por completo. Y por favor, se los pido, háganse un favor y véanla en su idioma original.. escuchar los acentos de cada uno y los gritos crudos, sin filtro, en la cocina es clave para la experiencia, al final de la primera temporada, yo me quedé sin palabras.
Esta es una serie que te hace sentir de todo.. es estresante, es divertida, te rompe el corazón y, al final, te deja lleno de esperanza, es una joyita, una obra maestra que demuestra que no necesitas presupuestos gigantes o ideas de ciencia ficción para crear algo verdaderamente especial. Así que, ¿mi veredicto final? Le doy a The Bear un sólido 9.5/10. La única razón por la que no es un 10 perfecto es que la intensidad del principio puede ser demasiado para algunas personas, y lo entiendo.. pero si logran sobrevivir esa primera ola de ansiedad, la recompensa es una de las series con más corazón y mejor hechas de los últimos años, es una historia sobre encontrar una familia en medio de la guerra, sobre la belleza que hay en la lucha y sobre la esperanza que puede nacer hasta del dolor más profundo.. y bueno, hasta aquí la reseña de hoy! Espero les haya gustado, cuidense! Byebye!

›The Bear season 4 - Healing and change [ENG/SPA]@danielcarrerag333d
I just finished the fourth season of The Bear, and honestly, for me, it's one of the best shows of this decade. It started out as this wild mix of chaos and complexity, but it really ended with some deep reflections and a powerful message about change and healing. I'll never forget that first season where the chaos seemed never-ending, but as the story went on, we saw this incredibly exciting and inspiring evolution.

The Bear 4ta temporada - Sanación y cambio

He terminado la cuarta temporada de esta serie que para mí es una de las mejores de esta década, una que comenzó siendo una mezcla de caos y complejidad, para terminar con profundas reflexiones y un mensaje de cambio y sanación. Como olvidar aquella primera temporada donde el caos parecía perpetuo, pero a medida que avanzo la historia, nos mostró una evolución muy emocionante e inspiradora.

For me, the best episode of this season was episode 7, "The Wedding." I think it's the perfect contrast to "Fishes" from season two. We see the yelling replaced by thoughtful silences and honest, healing conversations. The family comes together despite their past hurts and manages to create something nobody expected: an atmosphere of forgiveness and understanding. This definitely divided fans—some expected a total disaster, but others, like me, were super satisfied. It genuinely brought me joy.

Para mí el mejor episodio de esta temporada es el 7 la boda, creo que es el perfecto contraste con el episodio Fishes de la segunda temporada. Vemos cómo los gritos son reemplazados por silencios reflexivos y platicas honestas y sanadoras. La familia se reúne a pesar de las heridas del pasado y logran lo que nadie se esperaba, un ambiente de perdón y entendimiento, esto provocó opiniones divididas entre los fanáticos, unos esperaban que fueran un desastre, pero otros como yo terminamos muy satisfechos, me trajo alegría.

I really liked the whole "race against the clock" plotline to get the restaurant profitable. It put all the characters' perspectives into sharp focus, and they started adapting to limitations and becoming more efficient. Bringing in the element of time was perfect because it reminds us that time waits for no one. It doesn't matter if you're improving; if time runs out, what's done is done, period.

El recurso de la carrera contra el reloj para lograr que el restaurante genera ganancias me gustó mucho. Puso a todos los personajes en perspectiva y comenzaron a adaptarse a las limitaciones y hacerse más eficiente. Involucrar al tiempo es perfecto porque nos recuerda que este no espera por nadie, no importa si está mejorando, si se acaba, lo que se logró se logró y punto.

Even though Richie's my favorite character, this season really made me appreciate Carmy more. It showed that being talented and really good at one thing doesn't necessarily make us good at every other aspect of life. Carmy realizes that and stops imposing his ideas on how to run the restaurant, like changing the menu daily, because it was driving them into the ground.

Aunque mi personaje favorito es Richie, está temporada me hizo apreciar más el personaje de Carmy. Demuestra que el talento y ser muy buenos en algo, no nos hace necesariamente buenos en todos los demás aspectos de la vida. Carmy se da cuenta de eso y deja de imponer su criterio en el manejo del restaurante, como el hecho de cambiar el menu a diario, porque eso les está llevando a la quiebra.

I loved the irony of Carmy starting to take things easy, slowing down his own life, when the restaurant was running out of time and they needed to speed up to try and save it. This change of pace made him a more sensitive person, and he started listening and letting others take charge. That's the only way he got his love for Claire back and even managed to forgive his mom, who hurt him so much.

Me gustó la ironía de como Carmy comenzó a tomarse las cosas con calma, cambiando el ritmo de su vida, cuando el restaurante se estaba quedando sin tiempo y era necesario acelerar por esos para tratar de salvarlo. Este cambio de ritmo le hace una persona más sensible y comienza a escuchar y dejar que otros se hagan cargo, solo así recupera el amor junto a Claire e incluso perdonar a su madre que tanto daño le hizo.

And how can I not talk about Richie and his huge transformation? Seeing him smile in the episode of his ex-wife's wedding was unforgettable. It really hit me when he made that kind of plea in his sleep, asking a higher power for the restaurant not to fail. That was clear evidence he finally found his purpose in life there, and he starts encouraging the rest of the team about the importance of selfless hospitality. But to do that, they have to fix their own problems first so they can serve with the best attitude.

Cómo no hablar de Richie y su gran cambio, verle sonreír en el episodio de la boda de su ex esposa fue memorable. Me impacto verle hacer una especie de suplica mientras dormía pidiéndole a una fuerza superior que el restaurante no fracasará, esto fue una clara evidencia que finalmente encontró su propósito de vida en este lugar, donde comienza a promover en el resto del equipo la importancia de dar hospitalidad desinteresada, pero para eso deben solucionar sus propios problemas y poder servir con la mejor actitud.

In a nutshell, the series was really about the characters' journey of change; it was never just about cooking or the restaurant itself. The message focused on how people deal with the death of a loved one, how they control their passions for the greater good, and how they work on change no matter what stage of life they're in. I appreciate how bold the creators were in moving past the chaos theme to explore change and reconciliation. I honestly don't get why this show is categorized as a comedy at awards shows.

En resumen la serie se trató de un viaje lleno de cambios en sus personajes, nunca se trató de cocina ni el restaurante. El mensaje se centro en como se lidia con la muerte de una persona cercana, como se controlan la pasiones pensando en el bien colectivo y como se trabaja en el cambio sin importar en que etapa de nuestra vida nos encontramos. Me gustó el atrevimiento de los creadores de dejar el tema del caos para explorar el cambio y la reconciliación. Definitivamente no entiendo porque esta serie en las premiaciones es colocada en la categoría de comedia.

›The Bear: Anxiety vs. Humor in Season Three [ENG/SPA]@danielcarrerag652d
I finally finished the third season of The Bear, a season that left me with a bittersweet taste as I watched the chaos that seemed to have been overcome take over Carmy and the entire restaurant team even more. Previous seasons showed an evolution of the characters adapting to the new restaurant proposal, all in the midst of a kitchen on the verge of collapse where everyone was struggling to find their place, but this new season focuses a lot on past wounds, with many flashbacks that make it difficult for the restaurant to finally take shape.

El Oso: la ansiedad Vs el humor en la tercera temporada

Finalmente pude terminar la tercera temporada de The Bear, un temporada que me dejo un sabor agridulce al ver como el caos que parecía haber sido superado, se apoderó aun mas de Carmy y todo el equipo del restaurante. Las temporadas anteriores mostraron una evolución de los personajes adaptándose a la nueva propuesta de restaurante, todo en medio de una cocina al borde del colapso donde cada quien hacía esfuerzos por encontrar su lugar, pero esta nueva temporada se enfoca mucho en heridas del pasado, con mucho flashback que dificulta que el restaurante termine de tomar forma.

Carmy at the Center of the Storm

Carmy remains the center of attention in the series, of course he's the genius in the kitchen behind the wonderful dishes they always serve, but it seems that his brother's death still haunts him, and now we add to that the emotional problems he suffered during his learning process, caused by the chefs who supervised him. This causes his relationship with Sydney, his sous-chef, to become increasingly complex, weakening the mutual admiration they felt because emotions are very involved in the restaurant business.

Carmy en el centro del huracán

Carmy no deja de ser el centro de atención en la serie, claro es el genio en la cocina detrás de los platos maravillosos que siempre sirven, pero parece aun la muerte de su hermano le atormenta, y ahora a eso le sumamos los problemas emocionales que sufrió cuando se encontraba en su proceso de aprendizaje, causados por los chef que lo supervisaron. Esto ocasiona que su relación con Sydney, su sous-chef, sea cada vez mas compleja, debilitándose la admiración mutua que sentían porque las emociones se involucran mucho en el negocio del restaurante.

Cooking under pressure destroys order

This season maintains the premise of the previous ones: the kitchen as a metaphor, much more than a workplace, where the results on the plates are a reflection of the chaos that their characters live, where emotions are present in the preparations, resulting in both positive and negative outcomes. Every cut, every seasoning, every finished dish is a metaphor for the characters' lives, who are full of uncertainties and challenges.

Cocinar bajo presión destruye el orden

Esta temporada sostiene la premisa de las anteriores: la cocina como metáfora, mucho mas que un lugar de trabajo, donde los resultados en los platos son un reflejo del caos que viven sus personajes, donde las emociones están presentes en las preparaciones, resultando positivas y negativas. Cada corte, cada sazón, cada plato terminado es una metáfora de la vida de los personajes, que están llenos de incertidumbres y desafíos.

This season delves much deeper into the metaphors, making it clear that cooking can heal a person as it did with Marcus, or encourage pain as is happening to Carmy, who is looking for a way to control the chaos that surrounds him in the midst of his emotional suffering, but this effort seems to be destroying him more and more.

Esta temporada profundiza mucho mas en las metáforas, dejando claro que la cocina puede sanar a una persona como lo hizo con Marcus, o incentivar el dolor como le esta ocurriendo a Carmy, que esta buscando la manera de controlar el caos que le rodea en medio de su sufrimiento emocional, pero este esfuerzo parece que le esta destruyendo cada vez mas.

Trauma and anxiety are the main ingredients of this season

Carmy constantly struggles with the ghosts of his past, this is repeated over and over again in the season and can be strange when it comes to a series classified as a comedy. For those who want to witness some joviality linked to the kitchen, in this season they are in for a big surprise. The series portrays in a realistic and moving way the effects of trauma on mental health, showing how it can manifest in different ways and how it can affect all areas of life.

El trauma y la ansiedad son los ingredientes principales de esta temporada

Carmy lucha constantemente con los fantasmas de su pasado, esto se repite una y otra vez en la temporada y puede resultar extraño cuando se trata de una serie calificada como comedia. Para quienes desean presenciar algo de jocosidad ligada a la cocina, en esta temporada se llevan una gran sorpresa. La serie retrata de manera realista y conmovedora los efectos del trauma en la salud mental, mostrando cómo puede manifestarse en diferentes formas y cómo puede afectar a todas las áreas de la vida.

The humor of the Fak brothers Vs the dark and introspective

This season doesn't abandon the intensity of the previous ones but predominates moments of deep reflection in many of its characters. This seems to take on greater relevance, which makes it difficult at times to enjoy the touches of humor that the Fak brothers give to the series. We have a great cameo with John Cena playing the character of Sammy Fak, and along with Neil (Matty Matheson), Ted (Ricky Staffieri) they give us one of the funniest scenes in the series.

El humor de los hermanos Fak Vs lo oscuro e introspectivo

Esta temporada no abandona la intensidad de las anteriores pero predomina los momentos de profunda reflexión en muchos de sus personajes. Esto parece tomar mayor relevancia, lo que hace que por momentos no disfrutes los toques de humor que los Fak le dan a la serie. Tenemos un gran cameo con John Cena que interpreta el personaje de Sammy Fak, y junto a Neil (Matty Matheson), Ted (Ricky Staffieri) que juntos nos regalan una de las escenas mas divertidas de la serie.

Despite the changes in this season, I believe The Bear is a great series for having a well-constructed story, with episodes dedicated to characters you can identify with like Riche in the second season, or now Tina in the third. That shows how the series aims to explore issues that seem complex but that it embodies in the daily life of a person, obtaining moving moments to connect with, leaving the feeling of wanting to know how the story ends, which has been perfectly open for a fourth season.

A pesar de los cambios en esta temporada creo que The Bear es una gran serie por contar con una historia bien construida, con episodios dedicados a personajes con los te puedes identificar como el de Riche en la segunda tempora, o ahora el de Tina en la tercera. Eso demuestra como la serie pretende explorar temas que parecen complejos pero que lo plasman en la cotidianidad de una persona, obteniendo momentos conmovedores con los que conectar, dejando la sensación de querer saber como termina la historia, que ha quedado perfectamente abierta para una cuarta temporada.

›First Impressions on 'The Bear': The chaos of cooking@namiks999d

I have seen a few posts around on The Bear lately, as well as quite a bit of discussion. I've been a big preoccupied with a ton of different other shows as of late and just hadn't had time to give it a chance. But I noticed it was available on Disney+ today, and with a little bit of free time, I decided to give it a chance. This was a wise decision! I like shows about cooking, the process of food making and the personalities that can be found contributing to it. Anthony Bourdain's travel show Parts Unknown is one of my favourite food and travel shows of all, as well as a few others here and there, including The Great British Bake Off of course. But good food related shows are a bit difficult to find. If they're more focused on reality, they need a good host that understands what they're showing. And fictional shows are of course incredibly difficult to tell stories for. They need to be character driven. They need to understand the food industry. It's why I think shows like The Bear are often a bit of a rarity.

The Bear quickly pulled me in, I instantly found myself appreciating just about every aspect of it. From the directing to the colour grading, even down to the performances and story. This is a really, really good show with a simple premise that manages to remain fresh -- no pun intended -- while each episode handles a different aspect of running a failing food business. It doesn't sound all that interesting, but these are quick, 27 minute episodes that don't hold back in the pacing. This is a show in constant motion, much like the work in a kitchen would be for a chef. Endlessly preparing meals and ingredients and performing various maintenance tasks, trying to get things perfect; even if your team isn't really at your pace. That is one way of saying that The Bear is a show that is insanely chaotic, but I love it for this. It really pulls you in with such constant motion, such loudness, to the point where you yourself start to feel on edge. It's highly effective.

This post may feature a few spoilers in some episodes, so be warned in case that sort of thing bothers you. Though this isn't really much of a show that has a linear story, so far.

The Bear

The Bear starts off by introducing us to our protagonist, a seemingly 30-something working in his cousin's dying restaurant. This first episode is very good. Constantly showing the beauty of Chicago while switching between the beautiful cinematography of food preparation in a kitchen. But it very quickly takes a sudden turn and the pacing only increases from here on. This is no ordinary kitchen, there's absolutely zero teamwork and the owner seems to be totally incapable of managing his staff and business. Just about the only person that has a grasp on reality is our protagonist, who shows a clear passion for cooking and doing things properly, all while being able to manage the marketing side of things in an attempt to bring fresh faces to the business.

This seems to be quite a running theme in the show as each episode shows the various hardships faced in the restauarant as everyone is up in each other's faces, refusing to work together and without any sort of agenda. Our protagonist tries his hardest to use his prior experience in a higher ranking restaurant to show a clear path forward, to which nobody really pays attention. The drama here is strong, up-close cinematography that shows the tightness of a kitchen space, the emotions on the faces of each chef as the tensions rise. The noise is high, the heat is evident. So much arguing over responsibilities and who should do what and when and how. For a show with such short episodes, they certainly feel full of action.

In terms of casting, Jeremy Allen White is perfect as the protagonist of the show, he absolutely fits the role of a messy-haired professional chef full of stress. I haven't really seen him in anything else, but he perfectly suits the role of a character that is highly dysfunctional but also completely devoted to something. Watching him perform is really something, and one of the best performances I have seen in a long time. I don't think I have really seen the other cast members before, but it's White that really stands out. With the most range in his character as we see him at his breaking point, even down to this downtime moments where he just seems completely broken.

I really like seeing this in a character. Their passionate side as well as how devoted they are to the point in which their lives seem to be barely scraping by. But this show isn't entirely serious, there's lots of humour in it; in one episode a group of people are accidentally drugged and sent to sleep with Xanax accidentally falling into the drink mix. The host is actually happy about this given the peace it provides. Though much of the humour comes in the dialogue as we see the characters fighting, some of the dialogue and moments almost seem like they're improvised given how natural they look. Especially with the camera constantly changing perspectives and giving us constant cuts, as if it's filmed from numerous angles with multiple cameras (which it most likely was).

Despite all of the chaos I really like the moments it shows to display the cooking. Really cinematic, very beautiful shots that almost imply that all of that hellish interactivity was worth it. That in the end something really beautiful was produced and enjoyed by someone. And the show displays experimentation too, there's even an episode entirely devoted to one person trying to make the perfect donut with inspiration from their childhood, even looking at colour theory to find the right look visually. And there are episodes where the team does actually get along and manage to solve problems together, showing the dynamic of this environment and how it isn't all chaos and screaming. Fortunately with a relatively conservative number of episodes and shorter runtime, I don't think this is a show that can easly exhaust itself. There seem to be two seasons and I'm already reaching the end of the first. Without a really linear narrative, it can sort of end anywhere. The character development is trickled down through each episode, really. Minor moments in their days add to their depth, and it really works.

›The Bear: I don't know anything about cooking and yet this series is great / No se nada de cocina y aun asi esta serie es genial [ENG-ESP]@freddbrito1005d

I don't remember exactly when was the first time I heard or knew something about this series, I don't remember if it was from a podcast that I listen to regularly or I read about it casually on Twitter, but what I do know is that since that first time I knew about the existence of The Bear, the internet started bombarding me about it, from YouTube, Twitter and TikTok, so after all that I decided to watch it once and for all. Before I started watching the series I had researched a little bit about what it was about, but very little, I practically only knew the basics and that was that it was a series about a restaurant or something like that, or at least that's what I thought it was at the beginning and although in general terms that's what the series is about, about how a restaurant works, in this case a "fast food" one, in this case "fast food", so to speak, as the series progresses and we are introduced to the characters along with their backgrounds, The Bear is a series that touches on various human issues, such as depression, suicide, the desire to fit in somewhere, the internal struggle about your happiness and what you think makes you happy, among other things.

The Bear is a series that logically handles many technicalities used in the kitchen, so I being a simple human who knows only the basics of cooking, there are many things about this area that I did not understand, but for someone who loves cooking or a chef, I'm sure this series would love it. The series especially focuses on Carmen or also called Carmy, in which after the suicide of his older brother, he inherits his brother's restaurant, so Carmy as a way to pay tribute to his late brother will look for a way to raise this place that is not in the best conditions. At the same time, Carmy presents his own internal conflicts because before and before his brother died he did not want him to work in his restaurant, so before the refusal of his older brother, Carmy begins to study and work in the best kitchens in the world, being recognized as one of the best chefs.

Throughout two seasons, we will see the search for happiness not only of Carmy, but also of several characters that play a very important role in the development of this story, we will also know part of the past of these characters, especially the main characters, so we will have a much broader perspective of the actions and personalities of these characters. One of the central themes of this series is how to fit in at work, being the kitchen one of the jobs where stress is part of the day to day, being able to cope with all these events without collapsing is one of the most impressive things that human beings can do, leave the stress aside to be able to do things perfectly.

Since I finished watching Better Call Saul and Succession, I had not seen any other series that made me want to watch the next episode so much, and the way The Bear's story grabs you is very interesting, even for a person like me, who as I said before, I know very little about cooking. This series has a certain level of comedy, it is quite intense in several episodes and there are others where sadness is the central axis of the story. This is one of the best series of this year, and I am looking forward to a third season.

Hace más o menos un par de semanas termine de ver esta serie que sorpresivamente me empezó a salir casi por todas partes: The Bear, no recuerdo exactamente cuándo fue la primera vez que oí o supe algo de esta serie, no recuerdo bien si fue a partir de un podcast que escucho regularmente o leí sobre ella casualmente en Twitter, pero lo que si se es que desde esa primera vez que supe de la existencia de The Bear, internet me empezó a bombardear sobre ella, desde YouTube, Twitter y TikTok, por lo que luego de todo eso me decidí por verla de una vez por todas. Antes de ponerme a ver la serie había investigado un poquito sobre que se trataba, pero muy poco, prácticamente solo sabía lo más básico y era que se trataba de una serie sobre un restaurante o algo así, o al menos eso era lo que pensaba que era al inicio y aunque en términos generales de eso trata la serie, sobre cómo funciona un restaurant, en este caso de “comida rápida”, por decirlo de algún modo, a medida que avanza la serie y se nos presentan a los personajes junto con sus trasfondo, The Bear es una serie que toca diversos temas humanos, como la depresión, el suicidio, las ganas de encajar en algún lugar, la lucha interna sobre tu felicidad y lo que crees que te hace feliz, entre otras cosas.

The Bear es una serie que maneja lógicamente muchos tecnicismo usados en la cocina, por lo que yo al ser un simple humano que se de cocina tan solo lo esencial, hay muchas cosas respecto a este ámbito que no entendía, pero para alguna persona amante de la cocina o algún chef, estoy seguro que esta serie la encantaría. La serie especialmente se centra en Carmen o también llamado Carmy, en cual luego del suicidio de su hermano mayor, este hereda el restaurante de su hermano, por lo que Carmy como forma de rendir homenaje a su difunto hermano buscará la forma de como levantar este lugar que no está en las mejores condiciones. A su vez, Carmy presenta sus propios conflictos internos ya que anteriormente y antes de morir su hermano no quería que el trabajase en su restaurante, por eso ante la negativa de su hermano mayor, Carmy empieza a estudiar y a trabajar en las mejores cocinas del mundo, siendo reconocido como uno de los mejores chef.

A lo largo de dos temporadas, veremos la búsqueda de la felicidad no solo de Carmy, sino también de diversos personajes que juegan un papel muy importante en el desarrollo de esta historia, también conoceremos parte del pasado de estos personajes, especialmente los personajes principales, por lo que tendremos una perspectiva mucho más amplia de las acciones y de las personalidades de estos personajes. Uno de los ejes centrales de esta serie es la forma en como encajar en el trabajo, al ser la cocina uno de los trabajos donde el estrés es parte del día a día, poder sobrellevar todos estos acontecimientos sin derrumbarte es una de las cosas más impresionantes que puede hacer el ser humano, dejar el estrés a un lado para poder realizar las cosas a la perfección.

Desde que termine de ver Better Call Saul y Succession, no había visto alguna otra serie que me dieran tantas ganas de ver el siguiente episodio y es que la forma en cómo te atrapa la historia de The Bear es muy interesante, incluso para una persona como yo, que como ya había dicho anteriormente sé muy poco de cocina. Esta serie cuenta con cierto nivel de comedia, es bastante intensa en varios episodios y hay otros donde la tristeza es el eje central de la historia. Siendo esta una de las mejores series de este año, la cual espero con demasiadas ganas una tercera temporada.

›The Bear | My favorite show of 2023 so far [ENG/SPA]@danielcarrerag1007d
Hi community! I finally had the opportunity to complete a series, I had been unable to do so for a long time, I was facilitated by the fact that it contains short episodes of less than 30 minutes, well condensed in terms of plot and entertainment, first hand I can say that it is a good series that has left me wanting to follow its history, as it has two seasons, the newest released recently, which ends with unfinished events that need closure, which hints that there will be a third season.

Saludos comunidad, finalmente he tenido la oportunidad de completar una serie, llevaba tiempo sin poder hacerlo, me lo facilitó el hecho de que contiene son episodios cortos de menos de 30 minutos, bien condensados en cuanto a trama y entretenimiento, de primera mano puedo decir que es una buena serie que me ha dejado con deseos de seguir su historia, ya que cuenta con dos temporadas, la más reciente estrenada hace poco, la cual finaliza con acontecimiento inconclusos que necesitan un cierre, lo que da a entender que habrá una tercera temporada.

I understand that it is one of the series of the moment, the first season received very good reviews, which I share, it is very good and the second season is not far behind. I think I understand why people who have seen the series have liked it a lot, at least it was one of the things I liked the most, the diversity of characters and the dynamics between them is one of the best and most natural I've seen in a while, plus each of the characters evolves very well from the first to the second season, you can start hating them and end up loving them.

Tengo entendido que es una de las series del momento, la primera temporada recibió muy buenas críticas, las cuales comparto, es muy buena y la segunda temporada no se queda atrás. Creo entender porque las personas que han visto la serie les ha gustado mucho, por lo menos fue una de las cosas que mas me gusto, la diversidad de personajes y la dinámica entre ellos es una de las mejores y mas naturales que he visto en un buen tiempo, además cada uno de los personajes evoluciona muy bien de la primera a la segunda temporada, que puedes empezar odiandolos y terminas amándolos.

Have you heard the saying: after the storm comes the calm? In the first season we see how they go from chaos to have some control of various situations that arise, but then something interesting happens, when everything seems to move forward and improve, with one or another challenge, you begin to question that everything is progressing too well to be true, that's where everything takes an intense turn to leave you eager to continue watching, and just for that the series is worth it, I think it is a strong candidate to win several awards.

¿Han escuchado el dicho: después de la tormenta viene la calma? En la primera temporada vemos cómo pasan del caos a tener cierto control de diversas situaciones que se suscitan, pero luego pasa algo interesante, cuando todo parece avanzar y mejorar, con uno que otro desafío, empiezas a cuestionar que todo avanza muy bien para ser verdad, es ahí donde todo da un vuelco intenso para dejarte deseoso de continuar viendo, y solo por eso la serie vale la pena, creo que es una firme candidata para llevarse varios premios.

The Plot

The series begins in a restaurant in the best style of the United States, one where they sell sandwiches and other traditional foods in the city of Chicago. We see the chef Carmen Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White) trying to adapt to the dynamics of that place that has a staff accustomed to a rhythm and style of work, but Carmen is the best chef in the world, who to work in the best restaurant in the world, but his brother Michel after committing suicide has left him his dying restaurant.

La trama

La serie inicia en un restaurante al mejor estilo de los estados unidos, uno donde venden sandwich y otras comidas tradicionales en la ciudad de Chicago. Vemos al chef Carmen Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White) intentando acoplarse a la dinámica de ese lugar que cuenta con un personal acostumbrado a un ritmo y estilo de trabajo, pero Carmen es el mejor chef del mundo, que a trabajar en el mejor restaurante del mundo, pero su hermano Michel luego de suicidarse le a dejado a él su moribundo restaurante.

It is mired in debt, machines and kitchen implements very deteriorated, its employees do whatever they want, they have no discipline and the talent is questionable, you can say that they are pirates of the kitchen, they will not accept that anyone interferes in their routine, however, Carmen intends to take his brother's restaurant to the next level, and knows that the changes to be made will not be easy, he is used to the challenges and chaos, his training was obtained thanks to his studies in Copenhagen and his catastrophic family.

Está sumido en deudas, máquinas e implementos de Cocina muy deteriorados, sus empleados hacen lo que las da la gana, no tienen disciplina y el talento es cuestionable, se puede decir que son piratas de la cocina, no aceptarán que cualquiera interfiera en su rutina, sin embargo, Carmen se propone llevar el restaurante de su hermano al siguiente nivel, y sabe que los cambio a realizar no serán fáciles, está acostumbrado a los desafíos y el caos, su entrenamiento lo obtuvo gracias a sus estudios en Copenhague y su catastrófica familia.

To achieve his goal he must have someone who speaks the same language as him, so he decides to hire a new sous chef, a vacancy filled by Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri), a young woman with a lot of talent but lacking experience, but who admires Carmen and accepts to work almost without pay. Together during the first season they manage to gain the respect of the other members of the restaurant who agree to join the goal of restructuring everything.

Para lograr su objetivo debe contar con alguien que hable su mismo idioma, decide contratar un nuevo sous chef, vacante que cubre Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri), una joven como mucho talento pero que carece de experiencia, pero que admira a Carmen y acepta trabajar casi que sin paga. Juntos durante la primera temporada logran ganarse el respeto de los demás miembros del restaurante quienes aceptan sumarse a la meta de reestructurar todo.

The second season is a complete evolution, the characters prosper and become professionals, but they do not lose their essence, I loved that, also the restaurant begins to develop a new concept of the hand of the geniuses of the kitchen Carmen and Sydney, but they have many obstacles to overcome, the biggest of all is to remodel with a loan, which must be paid in 18 months, in a city where other restaurants have not been successful and close their doors.

La segunda temporada es de completa evolución, los personajes prosperan y se convierten en profesionales, pero no pierden su esencia, eso me encantó, igualmente el restaurante empieza a desarrollar un concepto nuevo de la mano de los genios de la cocina Carmen y Sydney, pero tienen muchos obstáculos que sortear, el mas grande de todo es remodelar con un préstamo, el cual deben pagar en 18 meses, en una ciudad donde otros restaurantes no han tenido éxito y cierran sus puertas.

Assume responsibility in success and failure | The Steve Bartman incident

This was one of the messages that the series left me with, in one of the episodes of the second season Jimmy (Oliver Platt) uncle of chef Carmen, who is the one financing the new restaurant, sits down to talk to Carmen to teach her a lesson and he does it through a real life event in major league baseball, in a controversial play in the division finals between the Florida Marlins and the Chicago Cubs in 2003.

Asumir las responsabilidad en el éxito y en el fracaso | El incidente de Steve Bartman

Este fue uno de los mensajes que la serie me dejo, en uno de los episodios de la segunda temporada Jimmy (Oliver Platt) tío del chef Carmen, quien es el que está financiando el nuevo restaurante, se sienta a conversar con Carmen para darle una lección y lo hace a través de un acontecimiento de la vida real en el béisbol de grandes ligas, en una jugada controversial en la final de división entre los Marlins de Florida y los Cachorros de Chicago en el año 2003.

A young man named Steve Batman is blamed because he did not let Moisés Alou catch a foul ball that would be out for sure, you can look it up on YouTube for more clarity, but that game was already a disaster and the real culprit of the crisis that the team lived that day was Alex González who was not able to catch a single hit by Miguel Cabrera, that was the beginning of a series of errors that did not allow the Cubs after 45 years to go to the World Series.

Un joven llamado Steve Batman es culpado porque no dejo que Moisés Alou atrapará un batazo en foul que seria out seguro, pueden buscarlo en YouTube para que lo tengan mas claro, pero ese partido ya era todo un desastre y el verdadero culpable de la crisis que vivió el equipo ese día fue Alex González que no fue capaz de atrapar un sencillo batazo de Miguel Cabrera, ese fue el inicio de una serie de errores que no le permitieron a los Cubs tras 45 años ir a la serie mundial.

But no one remembers that this was the mistake that broke the team, everyone remembers Bartman's interference, and prefer to blame a fan who did what anyone would do in a ball game, the moral is that when we make mistakes we tend to excuse ourselves and hide behind a Bartman, the series evokes this moment making a wake-up call to take responsibility and focus on the objectives necessary to achieve our goals, and if we are wrong not spend our lives blaming others.

Pero nadie recuerda que ese fue el error que descompuso al equipo, todos recuerdan la interferencia de Bartman, y prefieren echarle la culpa a un fan que hizo lo que cualquiera haría en un juego de pelota, la moraleja es que cuando cometemos errores solemos excusarnos y ocultarnos tras un Bartman, la serie evoca este momento haciendo un llamado de atención a asumir las responsabilidades y concentrarnos en los objetivos necesario para lograr nuestras metas, y si nos equivocamos no pasar la vida culpando a otros.

No matter what age you are it's never too late to progress

My favorite chapter is the seventh of the second season titled 'Forks' we see Richie, who has been working in the restaurant for a long time, he feels like a cousin of Chef Carmen despite not having any family ties, he has been one of the main opponents of change, he is a bitter man, family failure, with little talent, as well as aggressive and unsympathetic.

No importa la edad nunca es tarde para progresar

Mi capitulo favorito es el séptimo de la segunda temporada titulado 'Tenedores' vemos a Richie, quien trabaja en el restaurante desde hace mucho, el se siente primo del chef Carmen a pesar de no tener ningún lazo familiar, el a sido uno de los principales opositores al cambio, es un hombre amargado, fracasado familiarmente, con poco talento, además de agresivo y poco comprensivo.

His cousin Chef Carmen sends him to a 7-day internship at the best restaurant in town, where he starts polishing forks every morning, thinking he has been punished by his cousin for opposing change. During those 7 days he discovers how organized and demanding the best restaurant can be, he feels motivated and manages to join the dynamics of the place, and at 45 years old, when he thought it was too late to discover his talents, he finds himself and has a purpose, he is a new man, going from being the most hated character to someone you respect for giving in to change to evolve.

Su primo el chef Carmen lo envía a una pasantía de 7 días en el mejor restaurante de la ciudad, donde empieza puliendo tenedores todas las mañana, pensando que ha sido castigado por su primo por oponerse al cambio. Durante esos 7 días descubre lo organizado y exigente que puede ser el mejor restaurante, se siente motivado y logra incorporarse a la dinámica del lugar, y a sus 45 años, cuando pensaba que ya era tarde para descubrir sus talentos, se encuentra a sí mismo y haya un propósito, es un hombre nuevo, pasando de ser el personaje mas odiado a alguien que respetas por ceder al cambio para evolucionar.

The outstanding and talented is controversial.

This series seems to support an idea that I have heard others discuss about the talent of outstanding characters, such idea points out that a star, a public figure who excels in any discipline, sport, art or craft, must have a chaotic life to be extraordinary in what he or she masters. In the second season we see Carmen finally have a romantic personal life, but it distracts him from his goal of turning the inherited restaurant into the best, affecting him and almost incapacitating him as a good chef.

Lo sobresaliente y talentoso es polémico

Está serie parece respaldar una idea que ya he escuchado tratar a otras personas sobre el talento de personajes sobresaliente, tal idea señala que una estrella, una figura pública que destaca en cualquier disciplina, deporte, arte u oficio, debe tener una vida caótica para ser extraordinario en lo que domina. En la segunda temporada vemos a Carmen al fin tener una vida personal romántica, pero esta le distrae de su objetivo de convertir el restaurante heredado en el mejor, afectándolo y casi incapacitándolo como buen chef.

I think this series has something for everyone to identify with, we meet the young woman who wants to excel and after a failure believes she has no more opportunities to excel, we meet the middle-aged man who is in crisis with a life full of mistakes that doesn't fit thinking it's too late to excel, the one who is too old to learn, the one we all admire because he is the star and talented but his life is a disaster and suffers from anxiety, the woman who cares for everyone and seems normal but her big flaw is wanting to repair the damage in others.

Creo que esta serie tiene para que todos se identifiquen, conocemos a la joven que quiere sobresalir y que luego de un fracaso cree que no tiene mas oportunidades para sobresalir, conocemos al hombre de mediana edad que está en crisis con una vida llena de desaciertos que no encaja pensando que ya es muy tarde para sobresalir, al que ya es demasiado viejo para aprender, al que todos admiramos porque es la estrella y talentoso pero que su vida es un desastre y sufre de ansiedad, a la mujer que se preocupa por todos y que parece normal pero que su gran defecto es querer reparar el daño en otros.

It is a series loaded with many facets that anyone can identify with, that teaches us that the key to success is preparation ahead of time, that it is never too late to do it, that you can take what seems untalented and turn it into something extraordinary, if there is commitment and dedication.

Es una serie cargada de muchas facetas en la que cualquiera se puede identificar, que nos enseña que la clave del éxito son la preparación con anticipación, que nunca es tarde para hacerlo, que puedes tomar aquello que parece sin talento y convertirlo en algo extraordinario, si existe compromiso y entrega.

›The Bear Season 2 - The search for our best version / The Bear 2da Temp. La búsqueda de nuestra mejor versión@yennysferm711038d

Films, documentaries and series about the world of gastronomy are my favorite Top along with Horror although it seems strange, and The Bear with its first season made me a total fan at a time when I really I didn't know any of its main or secondary actors; At the time I did my The Bear First Season Post. Of course, the most expected thing was to enjoy The Bear-Second Season and the time finally came.

Las películas, documentales y series sobre el mundo gastronómico son de mi Top preferido junto al de Terror aunque parezca raro, y The Bear con su primera temporada me dejó hecha una fan total en un momento en que realmente no conocía a ninguno de sus actores ni principales, ni secundarios; en su momento hice mi Post de The Bear Primera Temporada. Lo más esperado por supuesto era disfrutar de The Bear- Segunda Temporada y por fin llegó el momento.

The Bear did two things that I totally admire and will always mention as an example of what a great production can do.

The Bear- First Season was so good that with a cast of practically unknown actors it managed to become one of the Series to receive the best recognition from specialized critics, winning several Nominations and Awards among them 13 Emmy nominations and many others, including Best Series, Sound Editing, Direction, Best Screenplay, Cast, Guest Actor Jon Bernthal and of course the performance of its main character Jeremy Allen White.

The Bear Second Season has surprised us by including a bill of great and well-known actors in it, in important roles for the plot, and not even having advertised this to sell us that new installment . That is to say, the success of The Bear is so great that it can include actors even an Oscar Winner, and not having advertised about it to promote the 2nd season, not even in its Official Trailer .

The Bear hizo dos cosas que admiro totalmente y que las mencionaré siempre como un ejemplo de lo que es capaz de hacer una gran producción.

The Bear- Primera Temporada fue tan buena que con un casting de actores prácticamente desconocidos logró convertirse en una de las Series en recibir los mejores reconocimientos de parte de la crítica especializada, ganar varias Nominaciones y Premios entre ellos 13 nominaciones a los Emmy y muchos otros, tanto como Mejor Serie, edición de sonido, dirección, Mejor Guión, reparto, actor invitado Jon Bernthal y por supuesto la actuación de su protagonista principal Jeremy Allen White.

The Bear Segunda Temporada nos ha dejado la sorpresa de incluir en ella a una factura de grandes y reconocidos actores, en papeles importantes para la trama, y ni siquiera haber hecho publicidad de esto para vendernos esa nueva entrega. Es decir, el éxito de The Bear es tan grande que puede incluir a actores incluso a una Ganadora del Oscar, y no haber hecho publicidad sobre ello para promocionar la 2da.temporada ni siquiera en su Tráiler Oficial.

It's just that I was surprised watching a chapter and thinking "Carmen's mom looks like Jame Lee Curtis, that's it... it has to be her... by God it's her!...how can she be?... And so with other actors and actresses that I really admire.

But not only do they have the bill of an Oscar Winner, they have several very successful actors and actresses, and with whom you will surely have an affinity, this was a plus that I did not expect in The Bear Second Season.

Es que me he sorprendido viendo un capítulo y pensar "La mamá de Carmen se parece a Jame Lee Curtis, ya va... tiene que ser ella... por Dios es ella!...¿cómo puede ser ella?... Y así con otros actores y actrices que realmente admiro.

Pero no solo tienen la factura de una Ganadora del Oscar, tiene a varios actores y actrices muy exitosos, y con los que seguramente tendrás una afinidad, esto fue un plus que no me esperaba en The Bear Segunda Temporada.

The Bear- Second Season continues where the first one left off, in what is the redesign and reconstruction of the restaurant in the hands of its protagonists, they go to an uncle to support them with capital as a partner, he supports but with a significant investment it does so by exerting pressure with the opening of the restaurant and its profitability of course, and everything begins here, planning, purchases, sacrifices, problems, permits, important decisions and the development of each character around this ambitious challenge since they even seek to be a quality and prestigious Haute Cuisine restaurant that can be eligible for stars, and each one assumes it with great commitment but with all individualities and personal problems.

This is how The Bear-Second Season makes the restaurant the medium where he's going to develop each character's arc, and it was a complete delight.

The Bear- Segunda Temporada continúa donde quedó la primera, en lo que es el rediseño y reconstrucción del restaurante en manos de sus protagonistas, acuden a un tío para que los apoye con capital como socio, éste los apoya pero con una inversión importante lo hace ejerciendo la presión con la apertura del restaurant y de su rentabilidad por supuesto, y aquí empieza todo, la planificación, las compras, los sacrificios, los problemas, permisos, decisiones importantes y el desarrollo de cada personaje en torno a este ambicioso reto ya que buscan incluso ser un restaurante de calidad y prestigio, de Alta Cocina que pueda optar a estrellas, y cada uno lo asume con gran compromiso pero con todas individualidades y problemas personales.

Así es como The Bear- Segunda Temporada hace que el restaurante sea el medio donde va a desarrollar el arco de cada personaje, y fue un deleite completamente.

The Bear

The restaurant The series allowed us to see in many ways everything that is behind the remodeling of a restaurant. How difficult and important the permits are for its operation, we see the team doing the work to reduce costs, the infrastructure problems that are achieved, the contractors and equipment; at the same time the assembly of the menu, the choice of kitchen utensils, etc. It was really interesting to learn about those important and stressful points for people who work in this field.

El Restaurante La serie nos permitió ver de muchas formas todo lo que hay detrás de la remodelación de un restaurante. Lo difícil e importantes que son los permisos para su funcionamiento, vemos al equipo haciendo el trabajo para reducir costos, los problemas de infraestructura que se consiguen, los contratistas y equipos; al mismo tiempo el armado del menú, la escogencia de los utensilios de cocina, etc. Realmente fue interesante conocer esos puntos tan importantes y estresantes para las personas que se dedican a ese ramo.

The Bear

Professional Preparation Our young protagonists Carmen and Sidney know how important the professional preparation of the team is, so within the investment budget they include courses and internships for their work team, and through chapters dedicated to them we can appreciate those who take advantage of it to grow despite their limitations and problems, and also those who are overwhelmed by having to learn new things.

La Preparación Profesional Nuestros jóvenes protagonistas Carmen y Sidney saben lo importante que es la preparación profesional del equipo de manera que dentro del presupuesto de inversión contemplan cursos y pasantías para su equipo de trabajo, y mediante capítulos destinados a estos podemos apreciar quienes lo aprovechan para crecer a pesar de sus limitaciones y problemas, y también quienes se ven sobrepasados por tener que aprender cosas nuevas.

Family Problems If you thought that the restaurant's problems were the heaviest, most difficult and stressful, I want you to know that it does not compare with what you are going to experience especially watching Chapter 6 "Fish" where we are going to understand all the problems of Carmen's family and where we are going to enjoy the performances of the new bill in this second season.

Although I must confess that I found the tension they put in the scenes of Carmen's mother played by Oscar Winner Jame Lee Curtis exaggerated, I must also admit that her performance was masterful, it shows how disturbing mental illnesses are, how they affect the family and especially each of their children. And if I think about it, there really are Italian families that are this intense, I've known them, so although all that almost forced stress made me a little uneasy, I think that there are families that are that difficult in their relationships.

Personally, I would have liked them to lower that level of stress a bit so that more families or people would feel identified with such difficult family gatherings. It bothered me a little, just a little... But when you add and subtract, well, it was a very good chapter, not my favorite, but very good.

Los Problemas Familiares Si creías que los problemas del restaurante eran los más pesados, difíciles y estresantes, quiero que sepas que no se compara con lo que vas a vivir viendo en especial el Capítulo 6 "Peces" donde vamos a entender todos los problemas de la familia de Carmen y donde vamos a disfrutar de las actuaciones de la nueva factura en esta segunda temporada.

Aunque debo confesar que me pareció exagerada la tensión que pusieron en las escenas de la mamá de Carmen interpretada por la Ganadora del Oscar Jame Lee Curtis, debo también reconocer que su actuación fue magistral, muestra lo inquietante que son las enfermedades mentales, cómo afectan a la familia y en especial a cada uno de sus hijos. Y si lo pienso bien, realmente hay familias italianas así de intensas, las he conocido, así que aunque me inquietó un poco todo ese estrés casi forzado, creo que si hay familias así de difíciles en sus relaciones.

Personalmente, me hubiese gustado que le bajaran un poco a ese nivel de estrés para que más familias o personas nos sintiéramos identificados con reuniones familiares así de difíciles. Si me molestó un poco, solo un poco... Pero cuando sumas y restas, pues si fue un capítulo muy bueno, no mi preferido, pero si muy bueno.

Gourmet Dishes and Desserts They did not neglect this point at all, despite handling many themes and characters throughout the series; the dishes, preparations, desserts, plating and techniques showed off at all times.

I value this

a lot since there are films and series about gastronomy that are leaving all this behind, but in The Bear they know how to give everything its place, and it was wonderful once again to have the opportunity to put our noses in each kitchen , making us part of it and allowing us at times even a sensory experience.

Los Platos y Postres Gourmet No descuidaron para nada este punto, a pesar de estar manejando muchos temas y personajes a lo largo de la serie; los platos, preparaciones, postres, emplatados y técnicas hicieron gala en todo momento.

Esto lo valoro

mucho ya que hay películas y series sobre gastronomía que van dejando atrás todo esto, pero en The Bear saben darle a cada cosa su lugar, y fue maravilloso nuevamente tener la oportunidad de meter nuestras narices en cada cocina, haciéndonos formar parte de ella y permitiéndonos por momentos hasta una experiencia sensorial.

WHAT I LIKED LEAST: CARMEN'S ROMANCE I didn't like how they treated Carmen's Romance, I feel that each scene was very forced and full of clichés. The shots so close to both of their faces was very uncomfortable, the romantic music and even the conversations were very unoriginal and not at all relaxed.

I understand the intention and everything that happens with them makes a lot of sense in how it affects Carmen and how things happen, but I didn't like their scenes that were too cheesy for my taste.

LO QUE MENOS ME GUSTÓ: EL ROMANCE DE CARMEN No me gustó como trataron el Romance de Carmen, siento que cada escena fue muy forzada y llena de clichés. Los planos tan cerca de los rostros de ambos fue muy incómodo, la música romántica y hasta las conversaciones fueron muy faltas de originalidad y nada relajadas.

Entiendo la intención y todo lo que pasa con ellos tiene mucho sentido en como afecta a Carmen y como pasan las cosas, pero no me gustaron sus escenas demasiado cursis para mi gusto.

Romance de Carmen y Claire

Ritchie My Favorite Character of this 2nd Season In the first season this character seemed very irritating and annoying to me. Who has not met such a guy? Every scene with him annoyed me, but in this second season he is the character whose arc has moved me the most, since Carmen sends him to do a Customer Service course or internship or something like that. Ritchi takes it very badly since he believes that he only wants to separate him from the work, but in Chapter 7 "Forks" dedicated to him, we are going to see what is behind the activity of the waiters, the taking of orders, the communication , knowing the client, clothing, codes, etc. This chapter alone can surpass many films on gastronomy. The growth of Ritchie's character and the change in him is something that has touched my heart.

This chapter has left me the phrase that I will always remember from this series and that on a personal level has moved things in me: "EVERY SECOND COUNTS"

Ritchie Mi Personaje Preferido de esta 2da Temporada En la primera temporada este personaje me parecía muy irritante y molesto. ¿Quién no ha conocido a un tipo así? Me molestaba cada escena con él, pero en esta segunda temporada es el personaje cuyo arco me ha conmovido más, ya que Carmen lo manda a hacer un curso o pasantía de Atención al Cliente o algo así. Ritchi lo toma muy mal ya que cree que solo lo quiere apartar de la obra, pero en el Capítulo 7 "Tenedores" dedicado a él, vamos a ver lo que hay detrás de la actividad de los meseros, la toma de órdenes, la comunicación, el conocer al cliente, la vestimenta, los códigos, etc Este capítulo solo, puede superar a muchas películas sobre gastronomía. El crecimiento del personaje de Ritchie y su cambio es algo que me ha llegado al corazón.

Este capítulo me ha dejado la frase que siempre recordaré de esta serie y que a nivel personal ha movido cosas en mí: "CADA SEGUNDO CUENTA"

Richie

There is much more to say about this series, about all the characters and that is that each one had an arc, we were able to get to know them more and understand their frustrations, problems and reasons for wanting to improve themselves, each one has a good treatment and you will surely identify with more one's.

The Bear Season Two I think it's about that, about Trying to Be Better despite all the things that happen to us, and how difficult it is, even sometimes it's not enough. Many times we ourselves are the biggest obstacle to overcome, our problems, mental illness, stress, family, etc.

Hay muchísimo más por decir de esta serie, sobre todos los personajes y es que cada uno tuvo un arco, los pudimos conocer más y entender sus frustraciones, problemas y razones para querer superarse, cada uno tiene un buen tratamiento y seguro te identificarás con más de uno.

The Bear Segunda Temporada creo que es sobre eso, sobre Tratar de Ser Mejores a pesar de todas las cosas que nos pasan, y lo difícil que es, incluso a veces no alcanza. Muchas veces somos nosotros mismos el mayor obstáculo a vencer, nuestros problemas, las enfermedades mentales, el estrés, la familia, etc.

The Bear

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this series, I'm sure it will do it again, it will get great reviews and many awards.

Leave the desire to see a Third Season again.

Esta serie la RECOMIENDO AMPLIAMENTE, estoy segura que lo hará de nuevo, logrará muy buenas críticas y alcanzará muchos premios.

Deja nuevamente las ganas de ver una Tercera Temporada.

Although in recent days I had put aside the television series for a bit to catch up on several movies that I had pending, I couldn't wait much longer to return to the second season of one of the best projects of last year, the FX series : The Bear.

Source

Along with HBO's Succession, The Bear is a perfect example of all the virtues of modern television when it takes full advantage of the nature of its format, creating an intriguing story from a simple premise where a large group of characters all have the chance to shine.

The first season introduced us to Carmy, a rather temperamental chef who had to take over his recently deceased brother's restaurant "The Beef". Taking us on a roller coaster of emotions where we had to deal with the stress of a kitchen at the same time that his protagonist tried to face the ghosts of his past.

As someone who has always been fascinated by the world of cooking in general (especially when it comes to dealing with the public), The Bear seemed to me a fascinating representation of the painful emotional dualism that plagues a family business of this type, debts, staff control, accidents in the kitchen and dealing with government entities are just some of the examples that we see perfectly represented in a black comedy that honestly shouldn't exaggerate too much to impress its audience.

The key? The agility, an accelerated direction that captures the adrenaline of being part of a Kitchen interspersed with brilliant dialogues where any silly discussion can end up giving us gigantic amounts of information about the characters we are seeing.

The Bear season 2 takes these good points and enhances them organically, understanding what made Christopher Storer's creation work in the first place and giving space to new characters that manage to reinforce the overall product.

In this case, we see Carmy's desperate efforts to relaunch the restaurant from scratch by giving it a facelift, fueled by the hidden money his brother Mike left him. To achieve this task, he will need the help of Sydney (played by Ayo Edebiri) and the rest of his former staff.

As I said previously, The Bear has a fairly simple premise and at the end of the day what holds our interest is the excellent quality of all its characters, complex, charismatic, and difficult to pigeonhole as "good" and "bad".

I am very grateful that it remains so consistent and faithful to its essence, despite the fact that every day we are bombarded with absurd amounts of new television series and movies on all streaming platforms, very few cases end up being of such quality.

ESPAÑOL

Aunque estos últimos días había dejado un poco de lado las series de televisión para ponerme al día con varias películas que tenía pendiente, no podía esperar mucho más para regresar a la segunda temporada de uno de los mejores proyectos del año pasado, la serie de FX: The Bear.

E

Junto a Succession de HBO, The Bear es un ejemplo perfecto de todas las virtudes que tiene la televisión moderna cuando aprovecha al máximo la naturaleza de su formato, creando una historia intrigante a partir de una premisa simple en dónde un grupo numeroso de personajes tiene la oportunidad de brillar.

La primera temporada nos introducía a Carmy, un chef bastante temperamental que debía hacerse cargo del restaurante de su hermano recientemente fallecido "The Beef". Llevándonos a una montaña rusa de emociones en dónde debíamos lidiar con el estrés de una cocina al mismo tiempo en que su protagonista trataba de enfrentar los fantasmas de sus pasado.

Cómo alguien que siempre ha sentido fascinación por el mundo de la cocina en general (Especialmente cuando se trata de lidiar con público), The Bear me parecía una representación fascinante del doloroso dualismo emocional que plaga a un negocio familiar de este tipo, las deudas, el control del personal, los accidentes en la cocina y el lidiar con entes gubernamentales son solo algunos de los ejemplos que vemos perfectamente representados en una comedia negra que honestamente no debe exagerar demasiado para impactar a su público.

¿La clave? La agilidad, una dirección acelerada que captura la adrenalina de formar parte de una Cocina intercalada con diálogos brillantes en dónde cualquier discusión tonta puede terminar brindandonos cantidades gigantescas de información sobre los personajes que estamos viendo.

The Bear season 2 retoma estos puntos positivos y los realza orgánicamente, entendiendo que hizo que funcionara la creación de Christopher Storer en primer lugar y dándole espacio a nuevos personajes que logran reforzar el producto general.

En este caso, vemos los esfuerzos desesperados de Carmy para relanzar desde 0 el restaurante dándole un lavado de cara, impulsado así por el dinero oculto que su hermano Mike le dejó. Para lograr esta tarea necesitará la ayuda de Sydney (Interpretada por Ayo Edebiri) y el resto de su antiguo staff.

Cómo dije previamente, The Bear cuenta con una premisa bastante simple y al final del día lo que sostiene nuestro interés es la excelente calidad de todos sus personajes, complejos, carismáticos, y difícil de encasillar como "buenos" y "malos".

Agradezco muchísimo que se mantenga tan consistente y fiel a su esencia, a pesar de que cada día nos bombardean con cantidades absurdas de series de televisión y películas nuevas en todas las plataformas de streaming muy pocos casos terminan siendo de tanta calidad.

English

Español

I became interested in this series after I realized how well-received it was by the public, and because it was a supposed comedy that took place in a restaurant's kitchen.

I sometimes enjoy watching content related to chefs and food preparation, so it was also a reason why I wanted to take a look at this series. The story is about a well-renowned chef who becomes the person in charge of his deceased brother's restaurant, and this chef will have to deal with a lot of issues to make this place a successful business.

I ended up getting a bit tired of the constant yelling among the kitchen workers. It seemed sometimes they were a very dysfunctional team unable to keep the peace and not be chaotic. And I also disliked the lack of sufficient comedic moments, it became clear my expectations were totally off with this series, but I still decided to watch it until the end simply because it was an above-average production.

I would recommend this series but I wouldn't say it is a comedic story but rather a very dramatic one with excessive yelling.

Me interesé por esta serie después de darme cuenta de lo bien recibida que era por el público, y porque era una supuesta comedia que tenía lugar en la cocina de un restaurante.

A veces disfruto viendo contenido relacionado con chefs y preparación de alimentos, así que también fue una razón por la que quería echar un vistazo a esta serie. La historia trata sobre un chef de renombre que se convierte en la persona a cargo del restaurante de su hermano fallecido, y este chef tendrá que lidiar con muchos problemas para hacer de este lugar un negocio exitoso.

Terminé cansándome un poco de los gritos constantes entre los trabajadores de la cocina. Parecía que a veces eran un equipo muy disfuncional incapaz de mantener la paz y no ser caótico. Y tampoco me gustó la falta de suficientes momentos cómicos, quedó claro que mis expectativas estaban totalmente fuera de lugar con esta serie, pero aún así decidí verla hasta el final simplemente porque era una producción superior a la media.

Recomendaría esta serie, pero no diría que es una historia cómica, sino más bien una muy dramática con gritos excesivos.

Como muchos sabrán estamos en plena temporadas de premios, o por lo menos los Emmy vienen por ahí, por lo que es casi que una obligación para mi ponerme al día con las grandes series que han dado de que hablar y una de ellas es sin dudas The Bear. Unos premios que van a llegar en plena huelga de guionistas y actores y que desde ya se sabe que se van a dar bastante retrasos en estrenos de películas y series que estaban anunciadas. Pero este no es el tema de hoy, hoy venimos a hablar de una de las series revelaciones del año pasado y que en la actualidad se encuentra emitiendo su segunda temporada y digo revelación porque por ejemplo en estos próximos Emmy cuanta con 13 nominaciones.

As many of you know we are in the middle of awards season, or at least the Emmys are coming, so it is almost an obligation for me to catch up with the great series that have given to talk about and one of them is undoubtedly The Bear. These awards will come in the middle of a strike of screenwriters and actors and it is already known that there will be delays in the premieres of films and series that were announced. But this is not the subject of today, today we come to talk about one of the revelations of last year's series and is currently airing its second season and I say revelation because for example in these upcoming Emmy has 13 nominations.

Pero además es porque a la gente le fascinó esta historia de ansiedad, traumas, familia, caos, superación pero sobe todo de amor por estar detrás de una cocina tratando de hacer lo mejor posible día tras día. En un principio no me quedaba claro en que genero ubicar esta serie, es un drama o una comedia? - yo diría que es un hibrido excelentemente logrado y es que hay capítulos que son impresionantes al punto de que uno como espectador se llega a sumergir de lleno en el desastre de esa cocina sintiendo el estrés en la piel pero a la vez con una sonrisa por las interacciones y las ocurrencias de todos los personajes. Así que bueno, vayamos y hablemos un poco de lo que va esta increíble historia.

But it is also because people were fascinated by this story of anxiety, trauma, family, chaos, overcoming, but above all of love for being behind a kitchen trying to do the best possible day after day. At first it was not clear to me in which genre to place this series, is it a drama or a comedy? - I would say that it is a hybrid excellently achieved and there are chapters that are impressive to the point that one as a viewer becomes fully immersed in the disaster of that kitchen feeling the stress on the skin but at the same time with a smile for the interactions and the occurrences of all the characters. So, let's go ahead and talk a little bit about what this incredible story is about.

Esta historia la empezamos con Carmen Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), un cocinero de talla mundial, de los mejores del mundo quien debe hacer un viraje en su carrera para atender el negocio de la familia. Un tipo que estaba trabajando y acostumbrado a estar en los restaurantes más top del planeta le tocaba regresar a Chicago tras la pérdida de un familiar para atender el "The Original Beef of Chicagoland" el cual es un negocio de sándwiches. Todo parecía indicar que después de semejante experiencia y calidad que Carmen tenía ponerse al frente de este pequeño negocio no supondría ningún reto; error, craso error. Y es que además de buscar la armonía perfecta entre un grupo de desordenados cocineros tiene que hacer frente a miedos, traumas y tristezas producidas que vienen por cargas familiares del pasado.

This story begins with Carmen Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), a world-class chef, one of the best in the world who must make a career change to take care of the family business. A guy who was working and used to being in the top restaurants on the planet had to return to Chicago after the loss of a family member to run "The Original Beef of Chicagoland" which is a sandwich business. Everything seemed to indicate that after such experience and quality that Carmen had, taking over this small business would not be a challenge; mistake, big mistake. In addition to searching for the perfect harmony among a group of messy cooks, she has to face fears, traumas and sadness caused by family burdens from the past.

A lo largo de la trama veremos como esas relaciones dentro de la cocina se van "cocinando" poco a poco al punto de que tarde o temprano esa conexión que tanto se busca puede que comience a dar frutos. La realidad también es que el estado tanto físico como financiero de aquel lugar es un desastre por lo que el grano de arena de todos será primordial para que el restaurant se pueda salvar y a la vez pueda dar un salto de calidad que es lo que al final busca Carmen a pesar de la desconfianza y escepticismo de algunos. Así que los ocho primeros capítulos de esta primera temporada serán ver como este lugar, siendo un verdadero caos, intenta no ahogarse entre tanta pelea, gritos y egos.

Throughout the plot we will see how these relationships within the kitchen are "cooking" little by little to the point that sooner or later that connection that is so much sought may begin to bear fruit. The reality is also that the physical and financial state of that place is a disaster, so everyone's grain of sand will be essential for the restaurant to be saved and at the same time to make a leap in quality, which is what Carmen is looking for in the end, despite the distrust and skepticism of some. So the first eight chapters of this first season will be to see how this place, being a real chaos, tries not to drown among so much fighting, shouting and egos.

He tenido varios trabajos en mi vida y si existe uno en el que difícilmente me vea es dentro de una cocina. El respeto que siento por las personas que se ganan el día a día trabajando en este mundo es máximo y después de haber visto esta serie lo reafirmo más. Hay que decir que esta es una historia en donde la ansiedad es otra protagonista, una que está en la cabeza de Carmen y que con ella debe lidiar con todo lo que representa ser la voz reinante de una cocina. Es una muestra de lo duro y complicado que es este trabajo pero a su vez y aunque suene loco, lo gratificante que puede llegar a ser cuando los astros se alinean y las cosas comienzan a fluir. En este restaurante rara vez eso sucede pero aún así lo siguen intentando una y otra vez.

I have had several jobs in my life and if there is one in which I can hardly see myself, it is in a kitchen. The respect I feel for people who earn their daily living working in this world is maximum and after having seen this series I reaffirm it even more. It must be said that this is a story where anxiety is another protagonist, one that is in Carmen's head and with it she must deal with everything that represents being the reigning voice of a kitchen. It is a sample of how hard and complicated this job is but at the same time and although it sounds crazy, how rewarding it can be when the stars align and things start to flow. In this restaurant that rarely happens but they keep trying again and again.

El concepto de familia es otra de las cosas que vemos a menudo por acá, ya sea tanto fuera como dentro de las cocinas. Si, al principio dije que este grupo de cocineros es desordenado pero eso no quiere decir que el respeto y el cariño no exista, muchos de ellos tienen rato trabajando juntos y si, se gritan, se insultan y se ponen malas caras pero de alguna forma son una maquina que logran que el Beef no se hunda y eso es gracias al arraigo que tienen con el lugar, ver eso es muy cool. La familia fuera de las cocinas, los Berzatto, también es otra con sus infinitos problemas y que abatidos por la partida de uno de ellos igualmente están en la constante busqueda de ser mejores y tratar de no morir en el intento. Ambas familias son disfuncionales hasta más no poder pero la admiración y el amor que hay entre sus miembros es más grande que todo.

The concept of family is another of the things we often see around here, both inside and outside the kitchens. Yes, at the beginning I said that this group of cooks is messy but that does not mean that respect and affection does not exist, many of them have been working together for a long time and yes, they yell at each other, insult each other and make bad faces but somehow they are a machine that manages to keep the Beef from sinking and that is thanks to the roots they have with the place, to see that is very cool. The family outside the kitchens, the Berzatto's, is also another one with its infinite problems and that, depressed by the departure of one of them, they are also in the constant search to be better and try not to die trying. Both families are dysfunctional to the point of being dysfunctional, but the admiration and love between their members is greater than everything.

De lo que más disfruté es de la acción dentro de las cocinas, en lo personal me gusta mucho ver programas o reality de cocina, creo que soy un cocinero frustrado. Pero si, la corredera, el como preparan los platos, las recetas, el caos de la movilidad en un espacio tan pequeño, sin dudas es de lo que más se disfruta. Por ejemplo, Marcus (Lionel Boyce) es el pastelero del restaurant, pues todas las escenas en donde se le ve preparando pasteles y donas son espectaculares, meticulosas, bien hechas, dan como placer visual. En realidad para conseguir eso los involucrados tienen que tener amor al arte y eso se aprecia mucho aquí. Nada que decir de todas esas escenas de cocina, brutales todas y cada una de ellas.

What I enjoyed the most was the action inside the kitchens, personally I really like to watch cooking shows or reality shows, I think I'm a frustrated cook. But yes, the sliding, the way they prepare the dishes, the recipes, the chaos of mobility in such a small space, is undoubtedly what I enjoyed the most. For example, Marcus (Lionel Boyce) is the restaurant's pastry chef, and all the scenes where he is seen preparing cakes and doughnuts are spectacular, meticulous, well done, giving visual pleasure. In fact, to achieve this, those involved have to have a love for the art and that is very much appreciated here. Nothing to say about all those cooking scenes, brutal each and every one of them.

Los personajes. Hay unos cuantos que son primordiales. Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), el primo de Carmen, es una persona complicada y que tiene mucho conflicto interno, le cuesta digerir los cambios pero es más por una cuestión sentimental o de feeling que por otra cosa, es otro que quedó muy afectado por la muerte de este familiar; aun así, es un pilar de esta historia. Personaje top. Y la otra que quiero mencionar es a Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) quien para mi es la revelación de esta serie. Perfeccionista, enfocada, serena, es la que le dará otro aire al restaurant, es la calma que necesita esa tormenta que hay siempre en esa cocina. Y bueno, el propio Jeremy es otro que lo borda de maneras muy optimas, escenas donde se le ve batallando con la ansiedad y tristeza o dirigiendo la cocina son de las mejores cosas de esta serie. En general todos los personajes son extremadamente buenos y únicos.

Characters. There are a few that are paramount. Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), Carmen's cousin, is a complicated person and has a lot of internal conflict, it is difficult for him to digest the changes but it is more a matter of sentimentality or feeling than anything else, he is another who was very affected by the death of this family member; even so, he is a pillar of this story. Top character. And the other one I want to mention is Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) who for me is the revelation of this series. Perfectionist, focused, serene, she is the one who will give another air to the restaurant, she is the calm that needs the storm that is always in that kitchen. And well, Jeremy himself is another one that embroiders it in very optimal ways, scenes where he is seen battling with anxiety and sadness or directing the kitchen are the best things in this series. In general all the characters are extremely good and unique.

›The Bear | You should be dead@jauregui981118d

After many attempts I was able to watch The Bear, I think I spent two months on this, and it wasn't easy, the anxiety that the first chapters caused me was horrible, my skin itched and I wanted to run away, so no, I preferred not to watch it until I could get used to the idea that this was what I was going to find in the series, taking advantage of the fact that yesterday something traumatic happened to me I decided to give the series a chance again, besides, I saw the pictures of Jennifer Coolidge and Jeremy Allen White, that made me want to watch the series, so I put together the recent trauma with the anxiety that the series causes me and I watched it, and I laughed, and I cried, and I still hate several characters, so I hope I don't poison myself with everything that will possibly come out of me in this review.

Restaurant kitchens are usually hell, that's no secret to anyone, so finding that hell here doesn't surprise anyone, but it does surprise me that that was pretty much all most of the reviews I read talked about, at least the parts I read, or at least it was the part they gave the most importance to, when the reason behind it all was not only more important, but more shocking, but since it's not as visible and tangible as how hellish it can be to share a small space with many people, not everyone gives it the attention it deserves.

Después de muchos intentos pude ver The Bear, creo que estuve dos meses en esto, y no fue fácil, la ansiedad que me causaban los primeros capítulos era horrible, me picaba la piel y quería salir corriendo, así que no, preferí no verla hasta que pudiera hacerme a la idea de que eso era lo que me iba a encontrar en la serie, aprovechando que ayer me sucedió algo traumático decidí volver a darle una oportunidad a la serie, además, vi las fotos de Jennifer Coolidge y Jeremy Allen White, eso hizo que quisiera ver la serie, así que junte el trauma reciente con la ansiedad que me causa la serie y la vi, y reí, y lloré, y aún sigo odiando a varios personajes, así que espero no envenenarme con todo lo que posiblemente salga de mí en esta reseña.

La cocina de los restaurantes suele ser un infierno, eso no es secreto para nadie, así que encontrar ese infierno aquí no sorprende a nadie, pero sí me sorprende que eso haya sido casi de lo único que hablaban la mayoria de las reseñas que leí, al menos las partes que leí, o al menos era la parte a la que más importancia le daban, cuando la razón detrás de todo era no solo más importante, si no más impactante, pero como no es tan visible y tangible como lo infernal que puede llegar a ser compartir un espacio reducido con muchas personas, no todo el mundo le da la atención que merece.

Carmen, commonly known as Carmy, is one of the best chefs in the world, becoming the youngest chef to work in the best restaurant according to I don't remember who, but he is not in that restaurant, he is running the family business, the Original Beef of Chicagoland, left to him by his brother Michael after he died by suicide, then, Carmy has to do her best to work in a place that reminds her every day what she lost, so she hires Sidney, a great chef that with only her presence and a week of work already has a whole plan in place to change the situation in the business, being this the beginning of a different kind of hell than the one we were introduced to, where we will see the different facets of grief, as well as human nature in general.

I started watching the series because of Carmy and I finished watching it because of Sidney, fuck, Sidney, I love you, thank you for existing. The world and a half already talked about the hell that is cooking in restaurants and other places like that, so I'm not going to talk too much about it, but I will say that I could never and would never work in places like that, the level of hostility was more than I could stand and I would end up going through the same thing as Carmy, but instead of sleepwalking through cooking, I would start stabbing people in the kitchen without realizing it, I don't deal well with hostile situations, and when I can't stand it anymore, it's better that no one is around me.

Carmen, conocido comunmente como Carmy, es uno de los mejores chef del mundo, llgando a ser el chef más joven en trabajor en el mejor restaurante según no recuerdo quién, pero no se encuentra en ese restaruante, si no que se encuentra dirigiendo el negocio familiar, the Original Beef of Chicagoland, que le dejó su hermano Michael después de morir por suicidio, entonces, Carmy tiene que hacer de tripas corazón para trabajar en un lugar que le recuerda todos los días lo que perdió, entonces contrata a Sidney, una genial chef que con sola su presencia y una semana de trabajo ya tiene todo un plan establecido para cambiar la situación en el negocio, siendo esto el comienzo de un tipo de infierno diferente al que nos presentaron, donde veremos las diferentes facetas del duelo, además de la naturaleza humana en géneral.

Comencé a ver la serie por Carmy y la terminé de ver por Sidney, joder, Sidney, te amo, gracias por existir. Ya mundo y medio habló del infierno que es la cocina en restaurantes y demás sitios así, así que no voy a hablar mucho de eso, pero sí diré que jamás y nunca podría trabajar en lugares así, el nivel de hostilidad fue más de lo que yo podría llegar a soportor y me terminaría pasando lo mismo que a Carmy, pero en vez de estar cocinando sonámbulo, comenzaría a apuñalar a la gente en la cocina sin darme cuenta, yo no lidio nada bien con situaciones hostiles, y cuando no lo puedo soportar más, es mejor que nadie esté cerca de mí.

I would be Michael, although I don't think so, but I do see myself committing suicide and leaving a lot of problems to the people around me, although in my case the problems I would leave to everyone would be very well justified, it would be fun, when I do it I will need someone to tell me everything that happens after my death by the Ouija board, although it is very likely that I will stay here roaming the world of the living and no one will notice me. Anyway, I need a spin off of Michael's life where we learn in more depth about the problems he had that led him to commit suicide and do the other thing he did before the suicide, that is, an unsurprising plot twist that made me cry, fucking beautiful series that kept me suffering horribly for its entire run.

There are two characters that I completely hate in the series and even though one of them gets better as the chapters go by, nothing justifies what she did and only shows what a shitty person she can become when things start to change and stop being what she knew for half her life, I mean, change is scary, and even more when you are over 50 and those changes are happening because a person who is not even half the age you are is achieving things that you would never dream of, so yes, Tina, you suck, you got better, but I can't stand you. Richie, you evil son of a bitch, and pardon my French, but from the first moment I saw him he shut me up, and as the chapters went by I only felt pity, contempt, and more hatred for him; Richie is the perfect example that trauma explains a person's behavior, but that doesn't justify it at all, so no, I'm sorry that the person you thought was your best friend committed suicide, but that doesn't give you the right to treat everyone around you like shit, especially Sidney, and I'll just say, that everything Sidney said to him when he couldn't stand it anymore gave me a thousand years of life, I wish the stab he gave him would have been worse, but no, that wouldn't be good for the plot. Sidney, I love you, I hope in the second season you keep insulting Richie for a long time.

Yo sería Michael, aunque no creo, pero sí me veo suicidándome y dejándoles muchos problemas a las personas a mi alrededor, aunque en mi caso estarían muy bien justificados los problemas que les dejaría a todo el mundo, sería divertido, cuando lo haga necesitaré que alguien me cuente todo lo que suceda después de mi muerte por la ouija, aunque es muy probable que yo me quede aquí rondando el mundo de los vivos y nadie me note. En fin, necesito un spin off de la vida de Michael donde nos enteremos a mayor profundidad de los problemas que tenía que lo llevaron a suicidarse y hacer la otra cosa que hizo antes del suicidio, o sea, un giro en la trama nada sorprendente que me hizo llorar, pinche serie hermosa que me mantuvo sufriendo horrible durante toda su duración.

Hay dos personajes que odio por completo en la serie y que si bien uno mejora con el pasar de los capítulos, nada justifica lo que hizo y solo demuestra la mierda de persona que puede llegar a ser cuando las cosas comienzan a cambiar y dejan de ser lo que conocía por media vida, o sea, el cambio sí da miedo, y más aún cuando tienes más de 50 años y esos cambios se están dando porque una persona que ni siquiera tiene la mitad de la edad que tú está logrando cosas que tú nunca llegarías a soñar, así que sí, Tina, eres una mierda, mejoraste, pero no te soporto. Richie, malparido desgraciado hijo de puta, y me perdonan el francés, pero desde el primer momento que lo vi me calló mal, y con el pasar de los capítulos solo sentí lástima, desprecio, y más odio hacia él; Richie es el ejemplo perfecto de que el trauma explica el comportamiento de una persona, pero eso no lo justifica en absoluto, así que no, lamento que la persona que creías que era tu mejor amigo se haya suicidado, pero eso no te da derecho a tratar de la mierda a todo el mundo a tu alrededor, en especial a Sidney, y solo diré, que todo lo que le dijo Sidney cuando no lo soportó más me dieron mil años de vida, ojalá la puñalada que le dio hubiera sido peor, pero no, eso no sería bueno para la trama. Sidney, te amo, espero que en la segunda temporada sigas insultado a Richie durante mucho tiempo.

The beginning of the first chapter, the beginning of the second chapter, the end of the seventh chapter, the beginning of the eighth chapter, those are my favorite moments of the series, anyway I still like it completely, but those moments I mention are the ones that gave me more mental orgasms. I just hope that the second season is much, much better, that they introduce possibly new characters and give full development to the characters that are already there, and that they please don't make Carmy look so bad. And I'm surprised I've made it this far without having melted thinking about Jeremy Allen White, I hope to dream in the coming days that I marry him and spend all my time caressing his nose and ears.

I'm not going to leave you the trailer because it's worth the life, so instead I'm going to leave you a monologue that Carmy has in chapter eight, which is just the beginning, and it's no spoiler, because although it is a strong and emotional scene, it tells almost nothing at all of the series, so there is no problem in you watching the scene if you haven't seen the series. Don't watch it if you suffer from anxiety, that was horrible for me, that reminds me of I couldn't watch Uncut Gems for the same thing, 15 minutes in I was already tearing the skin off my lips, that was horrible, I should give it another chance.

El inicio del primer capítulo, el inicio del segundo capítulo, el final del séptimo capítulo, el inicio del octavo capítulo, esos son mis momentos favoritos de la serie, de todas formas me sigue gustando por completo, pero esos momentos que menciono son los que más orgasmos mentales me dieron. Tan solo espero que la segunda temporada sea muchísimo mejor, metan posiblemente nuevos personajes y le den un desarrollo íntegro a los personajes que ya hay, y que por favor, no hagan ver tan mal a Carmy. Y me sorprende haber llegado hasta este punto sin haberme derretido pensando en Jeremy Allen White, espero soñar en los próximos días que me caso con él y paso todo el tiempo acariciendo su nariz y sus orejas.

No les voy a dejar el trailer porque vale la verga la vida, así que a cambio les voy a dejar un monólogo que tiene Carmy en el capítulo ocho, que es justamente el inicio, y no es ningún spoiler, pues aunque si bien es una escena fuerte y emotiva, no cuenta casi nada en absoluto de la serie, así que no hay ningún problema en que vean la escena si no han visto la serie. No la vean si sufren de ansiedad, eso fue horrible para mí, eso me recuerda a que yo no pude ver Uncut Gems por lo mismo, a los 15 minutos ya me estaba arrancando la piel de los labios, eso fue horrible, debería darle una nueva oportunidad.

›The Bear - Season 1 (2022) review: let's fix this place.@richardalexis1156d
Source

The pictures in this post were taken directly from the series by me

For a long time I had been dying to see "The Bear", the Hulu/Star+ series that seemed to have positively surprised a good portion of the critic, built around a simple but effective premise in which a world-acclaimed chef must take control from his brother's humble restaurant after he decided to end his life.

This same synopsis serves as the starting point for a story where food and the hidden chaos behind a kitchen intermingle, presenting us with a very powerful drama.

It's quite refreshing, considering we're at a point where all the "popular" shows seem to be polarized and it's hard to come up with a project that effectively draws on elements from so many genres without losing its own focus, although The Bear wouldn't really qualify as a drama or comedy in absolute terms, the referential use of crucial aspects of both genres and narrative styles to execute his vision is evident.

The greatest virtue of "The Bear" lies in its frenetic pace, capable of perfectly capturing the dynamics of a kitchen where there are multiple members with different personalities and desires in a state of constant conflict, without neglecting fleeting moments of harmony where all come together to produce something wonderful.

Despite the short duration of each of its episodes, The Bear manages to make us complicit in the aspirations and fears of its protagonists, starting with the tormented chef who tries to keep his brother's restaurant going (without even understanding why he inherited it in the first place) and continuing with the rest of the kitchen staff who do not seem to be entirely happy with the transition that this implies.

Created by Christopher Storer and starring Jeremy Allen White, this is one of the most solid current series that exists, especially attractive for those who feel a passion for food even with all the chaos that involves to produce it.

Desde hace muchísimo tiempo moría de ganas por ver "The Bear", la serie de Hulu/Star+ que parecía haber sorprendido positivamente a una buena porción de la crítica, construida sobre una premisa simple y efectiva en dónde un chef aclamado mundialmente debe tomar el control del humilde restaurante de su hermano luego de que esté decidiera acabar con su vida.

Está misma sinopsis sirve como punto de partida para una historia en dónde la comida y el caos oculto detrás de una cocina se entremezclan presentándonos un drama muy potente.

Es bastante refrescante, considerando que nos encontramos en un punto en dónde todas las series "populares" parecen estar polarizadas y es difícil conseguir un proyecto que tome efectivamente elementos de tantos géneros sin perder su propio enfoque, si bien The Bear no podría catalogarse como un drama o una comedia en términos absolutos, es evidente el uso referencial de aspectos cruciales de ambos géneros y estilos narrativos para ejecutar su visión.

La mayor virtud de "The Bear" radica en su ritmo frenético, capaz de capturar a la perfección la dinámica de una cocina en dónde existen múltiples miembros con personalidades y deseos diferentes en un estado de conflicto constante, sin dejar de lado los momentos fugaces de armonía en dónde todos confluyen para producir algo maravilloso.

A pesar de la corta duración de cada uno de sus episodios, The Bear logra hacernos cómplices de los aspiraciones y los temores de sus protagonistas, partiendo por el chef atormentado que trata de sacar adelante el restaurante de su hermano (Sin siquiera comprender por qué lo heredó en primer lugar) y continuando con el resto del staff de la cocina que no parece estar del todo conforme con la transición que esto implica.

Creada por Christopher Storer y protagonizada por Jeremy Allen White, estamos ante una de las series actuales más solidas que existen, especialmente atractiva para aquellos que sientan pasión por la buena comida con todo el caos que implica producirla.

Movies and series about the whole world around the art of Gastronomy, I am deeply passionate about, because it makes me feel that somehow I enter those kitchens, trailers or schools where the plots are developed; while we meet fascinating characters, cooking techniques, places, tools, styles that are distinguished depending on the places and their culture, recipes and we can even experience sensations or imagine flavors.
For all this and much more is that movies or series about Gastronomy stay in my mind, and are highly motivating, they make me want to clean and organize my kitchen differently, to buy new appliances or utensils, to dare to experiment with new recipes, etc. **That is to say that they not only distract me, but also add to my spirit. It's like when you're little and you go to see a karate movie and then you get home and you want to play karate with your brothers or join that gym. That's how I feel after seeing these topics on the different platforms that we have now.

Las películas y series sobre todo el mundo alrededor de arte de la Gastronomía, me apasionan profundamente, porque me hace sentir que de alguna forma entro a esas cocinas, trailers o escuelas donde se desarrollan las tramas; al tiempo que conocemos personajes fascinantes, técnicas de cocina, lugares, herramientas, estilos que se distingue dependiendo de los lugares y su cultura, recetas e incluso podemos experimentar sensaciones o imaginar sabores.

Por todo esto y mucho más es que las películas o series sobre Gastronomía se quedan en mi mente, y son altamente motivadoras, me dejan ganas de limpiar y organizar diferente mi cocina, de comprar aparatos o utensilios nuevos, de atreverme a experimentar con nuevas recetas, etc. Es decir que no solo me distraen, sino que también suman a mi espíritu. Es como cuando estás pequeño e ibas a ver una película de karate y luego llegas a tu casa y quieres jugar a pelear karate con tus hermanos o inscribirte ya en ese gimnasio. Así mismo quedo luego de ver estos temas en las diferentes plataformas que disponemos ahora.

The Bear is a series that I hadn't really heard of at the time. This Sunday I found a video about the Best Series of 2022 and it was in the ranking. I looked it up and it has only been released in Season 1 with 8 episodes that are not very long, they last around 30 or 40 minutes, except for the last episode that is a little longer. I started watching it while I was sewing some things, and I had to leave the sewing for another time, because the first chapter left me paralyzed, I could not do anything else, I had never seen a series or movie about a restaurant that generated me so much anxiety, not even an action movie has left me so stressed. Everything that happened in that kitchen felt as if I was there, it is incredible what a good story well told achieves, with excellent actors, with a location that itself is another character because you can feel the atmosphere of tension, the smallness of its space, the volatility of a situation in a small space, occupied by big egos, it is a whole sensory experience.

The Bear es una serie que realmente no había escuchado de ella en su oportunidad. Este domingo me encontré un video sobre las Mejores Series del 2022 y ella estaba en el ranking. La busqué y solo ha salido una Primera Temporada con 8 episodios que no son muy largo, duran alrededor de 30 o 40 minutos, salvo el último capítulo que si es un poco más largo. Comencé a verla mientras estaba cosiendo algunas cosas, y tuve que dejar de la costura para otro momento, porque el primer capítulo me dejó paralizada, no podía hacer más nada, nunca había visto una serie o película sobre un restaurant que me generara tanta ansiedad, es que ni una película de acción me ha dejado tan estresada. Todo lo que pasaba en esa cocina lo sentí como si yo estaba ahí, es increíble lo que logra una buena historia bien contada, con excelentes actores, con una locación que ella misma es otro personaje porque se siente el ambiente de tensión, lo pequeño de su espacio, lo volátil de una situación en un pequeño espacio, ocupado por grandes egos, es toda una experiencia sensorial.

[Filmaffinity.com - The Bear](https://www.filmaffinity.com/es/filmimages.php?movie_id=948192)

The protagonist of the series is the actor Jeremy Allen White, who is the Chef Carmen Berzatto (yes, her name is Carmen in the series) who worked in a luxurious restaurant before and achieved professional studies in gastronomy, we know this by the use of resources such as flashback and by the other characters, that after the death of his brother Micke, he inherited his restaurant The Original Beef in Chicago, which is far from the luxury and the demands of his previous job.

El protagonista de la Serie es el actor Jeremy Allen White, quien es el Chef Carmen Berzatto (sí, se llama Carmen en la serie) que trabajaba en un Restaurant Lujoso anteriormente y logró estudios profesionales sobre Gastronomía, esto lo sabemos por la utilización de recursos como flashback y por los otros personajes, que luego de la muerte de su hermano Micke, éste le heredara su restaurant The Original Beef en Chicago, el cual dista mucho del lujo y las exigencias de su anterior trabajo.

Filmaffinity.com - The Bear

Ebon Moss plays Richie, who is the cousin of the protagonist and has a very strong and impulsive personality, from the first scene he has a very dominant and aggressive presence towards Carmen, and all the tension he generates reaches us.

I think we all have a very "Richie" relative with whom the relationship is very difficult, but you know you can count on him and vice versa. It's a very difficult relationship and from the beginning you're hooked on the character. He was very close to Mickey and misses him a lot too.

Ebon Moss interpreta a Richie, quien es primo del protagonista y tiene una personalidad muy fuerte e impulsiva, desde la primera escena tiene una presencia muy dominante y agresiva hacia Carmen, y llega hasta nosotros toda la tensión que genera.

Creo que todos tenemos un familiar muy "Richie" con el que es muy difícil la relación, pero sabes que cuentas con él y viceversa. Es una relación muy difícil y desde el principio ten enganchas con el personaje. Él era muy cercano a Mickey y lo extraña mucho también.

Filmaffinity.com - The Bear

Ayo Edebiri is Sydney, a well-prepared girl who looks up to Carmen and wants to work with him because she admires him and has a vision for the Restaurant which she holds in high esteem because it was her father's favorite restaurant, as she mentions.

Ayo Edebiri es Sydney, una chica preparada que admira a Carmen y quiere trabajar con él porque lo admira y tiene una visión para el Restaurant al que le tiene estima porque era el restaurant preferido de su papá, según ella lo menciona.

Imdb.com - The Bear

The Original Beef Restaurant, for me is like another character, which evolves throughout the series, which feels suffocating because of its confined space where so many egos work together, which houses so many industrial safety hazards and one feels the danger of equipment, knives, dirt, etc. and this is changing with the story, before our eyes, as something we long to see better, to overcome, because something in common among all the characters is that they love The Original Beef.

El Restaurant The Original Beef, para mí es como otro personaje, que evoluciona durante toda la serie, el cual se siente que ahoga por su espacio reducido donde trabajan tantos egos juntos, el cual alberga tantos peligros de seguridad industrial y uno siente el peligro de los equipos, los cuchillos, la suciedad, etc. y éste va cambiando con la historia, frente a nuestros ojos, como algo que anhelamos ver mejor, superarse, porque algo en común entre todos los personajes es que Aman a The Original Beef.

Imdb.com - The Bear

This series besides giving us a great story, also teaches us about many things related to Gastronomy, with special emphasis on industrial safety measures, cleanliness, codes, customs of the chef and the team, rules like "Do not wipe your hands off the apron " that we learn first hand, as if we ourselves had been working in the Restaurant; and as I am really passionate about this whole world were like teachings that I already have in my memory.

You'll even get recipes or tips during the series, which I wrote down to eventually use and try with my family 😍 and that's a plus.

Esta serie además de entregarnos una gran historia, nos enseña además sobre muchas cosas relacionadas a la Gastronomía, haciendo especial énfasis en las medidas de seguridad industrial, le limpieza, los códigos, las costumbres de los chef y del equipo, normas como "No te limpies las manos del delantal" que aprendemos de primera mano, como si nosotros mismos hubiésemos estado trabajando en el Restaurant; y como todo ese mundo me apasiona realmente fueron como enseñanzas que ya tengo en mi memoria.

Incluso te vas a conseguir con recetas o tips durante la serie, que anoté para eventualmente usar y probar con mi familia 😍 y eso es todo un Plus.

Imdb.com - The Bear

It has many characters, not only the main ones I mentioned, in fact this is a detail that is part of the vision of the story, since there are many characters, working in a reduced and dangerous space because of the accidents they may have while working, we see all that in not very long chapters, and all that is intended to make us feel the anxiety and stress of all that activity, but they do it without overwhelming us, we do not feel that it is too much, I think it is perfect in how it achieves that goal.

Tiene muchos personajes, no solo los principales que mencioné, de hecho este es un detalle que forma parte de la visión de la historia, ya que son muchos personajes, trabajando en un espacio reducido y peligroso por los accidentes que pueden tener trabajando, todo eso lo vemos en capítulos no muy largos, y todo eso tiene como finalidad que sintamos la ansiedad y el estrés de toda esa actividad, pero lo hacen sin abrumarnos, no sentimos que es demasiado, pienso que es perfecta en como alcanza ese objetivo.

Filmaffinity.com - The Bear

This series is about grief, loss, relationships, family, companionship, effort, about internal struggles and a dream to be better and achieve success, about egos and the different characters that you can identify with in one way or another. I highly recommend it, it is already one of my favorite series for what it made me feel, what I learned and what it achieved internally in me.

I invite you to watch the series, and below is the official trailer subtitled in Spanish.

Esta serie es sobre duelo, pérdida, relaciones, familia, compañerismo, esfuerzo, sobre luchas internas y un sueño de ser mejores y lograr el éxito, sobre egos y de los diferentes personajes con los que te puedes identificar de una forma u otra. La recomiendo altamente, ya es una de mis series preferidas por lo que me hizo sentir, lo que aprendí y lo que logró internamente en mí.

Los invito a ver la serie, y a continuación les dejo el Trailer oficial subtitulada en español.

›Anteprima - la cucina su FX@serialfiller1427d
https://www.serialfiller.org/lastposts Questo è il link futuro del post che vi sto invitando a leggere nei prossimi giorni su www.serialfiller.org e che qui è in anteprima

Come di consueto oggi vi porto dentro una nuova Anteprima di un articolo che fra qualche giorno o settimana vedrete Nella Mente di un SerialFiller, il mio blog interamente incentrato sul mondo delle serie tv e di cui, da qualche mese, ho deciso di regalarvi costantemente, in anticipo su quello che pubblicherò, gran parte dei post che vedrete su www.serialfiller.org.

La prima cosa che mi è saltata in mente durante la visione dei primi episodi di The Bear è stata quella di stupore a più livelli. Ero stupito dalla semplicità, se vogliamo anche dalla banalità, dell'idea sottostante l'intero show. A stupirmi, poi, era stato anche il fatto che un'idea cosi semplice fosse anche oggettivamente un'idea vincente in partenza. Ultimo livello di stupore riguardava, infine, il fatto che mi sembrava meravigliosamente assurdo che nessuno ci avesse pensato prima. Ma di che idea stiamo parlando?

E qui aggancio quello stupore. Nel 2022, in un mondo dove impazzano i reality che a vario titolo ci portano mani e piedi nel mondo della cucina, sia essa sofisticata, sia essa "terra, terra", sia essa da ristorante michelin, sia essa da trattoria. Il pubblico, insomma, non manca ed è anzi sempre molto disponibile ad essere spettatore di competizioni culinarie, contest golosissimi, esplorazioni enogastronomiche, chef urlanti, aspiranti chef mortificati e vessati e cosi via. Pensare che finora nessuno avesse mai proposto una serie tv ambientata mani e piedi nel mondo della cucina mi ha davvero colto di sorpresa. Era ovvio, abbastanza ovvio, che una serie del genere avrebbe suscitato interesse ed avesse ottenuto successo. Non vi pare?

Questo passaggio di consegne non nasce da una semplice volontà di Michael di richiamare all'ovile il fratello ma, purtroppo, da un lascito testamentario reso indispensabile dalla morte prematura di Michael, interpretato dal sempre eccelso Jon Bernthal (We Own This City, The Premise) capace di dare corpo ad un personaggio apparso in video per un paio di minuti in tutta la stagione. Durante il corso della stagione scopriremo molto di più su Michael, sul rapporto con il fratello e sullo stato in cui versava e versa il ristorante ma, soprattutto, comprenderemo meglio la psicologia di Carmine, ragazzo di straordinario talento ed immenso successo ma troppo ossessivamente chiuso all'interno di quella sua passionale mania per la cucina. Questa vocazione gli ha richiesto un impegno pressochè totale, impegno che lo ha distolto dagli affetti, dai legami e da quel rapporto sempre eccezionale con Michael. Alla morte di Michael, Carmine, pur potendo rinunciare a quella sfida, pur potendo permettersi il lusso di lavarsene le mani o lasciare tutto nelle mani del socio di sempre di Michael, un vulcanico Richie, decide di sorprendere tutti e mollare, invece, la sua lanciatissima carriera per dare un senso ed un seguito ai sacrifici ed al sogno del defunto fratello. Ne seguirà una storia molto intensa, tormentata e difficile, acuita dal momento contingente (la crisi pandemica) che ha messo in ginocchio migliaia di locali, compreso il "The Original Beef", surclassato da moratorie e debiti e ridotto malissimo da ogni punto di vista. Carmine proverà a portare in dote al ristorante ed a tutto il personale, la sua esperienza, il suo metodo e la sua visione. Troverà una brigata variegata, disordinata, demotivata e non avvezza a lavorare con un preciso ordine gerarchico all'interno di schemi più da caserma che da cucina. La strada in salita, le emergenti e sempre rinnovate difficoltà, l'ostilità di Richie, i debiti contratti, costituiranno una sfida che metterebbe al tappeto chiunque.

The Bear ha avuto il pregio di infilarsi in un filone che in televisione è ultra visto e rivisto e che miete un successo sempre enorme ma che mai era sfociato un un formato episodico seriale. La produzione, però, ha avuto il merito di non accontentarsi di una storia ambientata nel mondo della cucina, ne di adagiarsi su quello che poteva sembrare un successo assicurato ma ha mescolato a tutto questo una storia familiare molto vigorosa e drammatica, inserendola nel dramma collettivo del covid e degli impatti della crisi pandemica sulla ristorazione. Si è servita di un Jeremy Allen che aveva da sempre dimostrato, in Shameless, di essere una garanzia in prodotti cosi carichi emotivamente, ritmati, sboccati, adrenalinici e provenienti dal basso e la scelta è stata azzeccatissima.

https://www.serialfiller.org/lastposts This is the future link to the post that I am inviting you to read in the coming days at www.serialfiller.org and which is previewed here

As usual, today I am bringing you inside a new Preview of an article that in a few days or weeks you will see In the Mind of a SerialFiller, my blog entirely focused on the world of TV series and of which, for the past few months, I have decided to constantly give you, in advance of what I will publish, most of the posts you will see on www.serialfiller.org.

Don't miss an episode of Masterchef?

Was your favorite Shameless character Lip?

Is the world of cooking your world?

On June 23, FX released the pilot of an 8-episode TV series starring Jeremy Allen, unforgettable member of the Gallagher family in Shameless. The title is The Bear and it has been enjoyed immensely in America, receiving rave reviews and a lightning renewal for a second season to air in 2023. The series is set in Chicago but unfolds, almost entirely, within a small restaurant, called The Original Beef, owned by a pair of Italian American brothers (or rather one of the brothers as we will find out more in a moment) with the surname Berzatto hence the nickname "The Bear," hence the title of the show. Acclamation even here In the Mind of a SerialFiller? Find out right after the tired, barred face of our dear Jeremy in his not-so-starred chef's outfit.

The first thing that popped into my mind while watching the first few episodes of The Bear was that of awe on many levels. I was amazed by the simplicity, if you will, even the banality, of the idea underlying the entire show. Also astonishing to me was the fact that such a simple idea was also objectively a winning idea to begin with. Last level of amazement concerned, finally, the fact that it seemed wonderfully absurd to me that no one had thought of it before. But what idea are we talking about? Carmine Berzatto (Jeremy Allen) is a chef we would call a star chef here. He is the top chef at the best restaurant in the United States of America. So many sacrifices, unsustainable rhythms, a stifling work atmosphere but the knowledge that he has become the best, one à la Cracco, à la Cannavacciuolo, à la Barbieri just to name a few. And here I hook that amazement. In the year 2022, in a world where reality shows are going crazy that in various ways bring us hands and feet into the world of cooking, be it sophisticated, be it "earth, earth," be it Michelin restaurant, be it trattoria. The audience, in short, is not lacking and is indeed always very willing to be spectators of culinary competitions, mouth-watering contests, food and wine explorations, screaming chefs, mortified and harassed aspiring chefs, and so on. To think that until now no one had ever proposed a TV series set hands and feet in the world of cooking really took me by surprise. It was obvious, quite obvious, that such a series would generate interest and achieve success. Wouldn't it?

Returning to our Carmine, the real essence of the show is represented by his seemingly foolish choice to abandon the order, refinement, sophistication, and elegance of the hottest restaurant of the moment to run the kitchen of "The Original Beef of Chicagoland," a little restaurant in the Chicago suburbs that has been run for years by Carmine's brother Michael. We will discover that, behind this stark and puzzling choice, there is, in fact, Michael's decision to leave the management to Carmine, a brother who is now distant but with whom, as children and teenagers, the relationship was extraordinary. This handover stems not from a simple desire on Michael's part to call his brother back into the fold but, unfortunately, from a bequest in his will made essential by the untimely death of Michael, played by the always-excellent Jon Bernthal (We Own This City, The Premise) capable of fleshing out a character who appeared on video for a couple of minutes throughout the season. Over the course of the season we will discover much more about Michael, his relationship with his brother and the state the restaurant was and is in, but most importantly, we will better understand the psychology of Carmine, a boy of extraordinary talent and immense success but too obsessively locked within his passionate mania for cooking. This vocation required of him an almost total commitment, a commitment that distracted him from his affections, ties and that always exceptional relationship with Michael. Upon Michael's death, Carmine, though he could give up that challenge, though he had the luxury of washing his hands of it or leaving everything in the hands of Michael's lifelong partner, a volcanic Richie, decided to surprise everyone and quit, instead, his highly launched career to give meaning and follow-through to the sacrifices and

Upon Michael's death, Carmine, while being able to give up that challenge, while having the luxury of washing his hands of it or leaving it all in the hands of Michael's lifelong partner, a volcanic Richie, decides to surprise everyone and give up, instead, his highly launched career to give meaning and follow-up to his late brother's sacrifices and dream. A very intense, troubled and difficult story will ensue, exacerbated by the contingent moment (the pandemic crisis) that has brought thousands of establishments to their knees, including "The Original Beef," outclassed by moratoriums and debts and badly reduced from every point of view. Carmine will try to bring his experience, method and vision to the restaurant and all the staff. He will find a brigade that is motley, haphazard, unmotivated and unaccustomed to working with a precise hierarchical order within patterns more like barracks than kitchen. The uphill road, the emerging and ever-renewed difficulties, Richie's hostility, and the debts incurred will provide a challenge that would knock anyone down.

The Bear had the virtue of slipping into a strand that is ultra-seen-and-reviewed on television and that reaps consistently huge success but had never resulted in a serial episodic format. The production, however, had the merit of not settling for a story set in the culinary world, nor of resting on what might have seemed like an assured success but mixed in a very vigorous and dramatic family story, inserting it into the collective drama of covid and the impacts of the pandemic crisis on the restaurant industry. It made use of a Jeremy Allen who had always proven in Shameless to be a guarantee in such emotionally charged, rhythmic, foul-mouthed, adrenaline-fueled, bottom-up products, and the choice was spot-on. Above all, however, FX tried to answer a narrative question that God knows no one has thought of so far (and here the theme of initial astonishment returns): What would happen if a star chef inherited a low-level, heavily indebted establishment with a super-cheap diner menu? Have fun and enjoy!
