We're finishing up our coverage of The Bear Season 2 with a jam packed two parter! It's friends and family night at the new The Bear restaurant and the tension ratchets up.  Carmy is second guessing and running things by Claire which makes Syd crazy.  Syd makes Nat an omelette. Richie shines at the front of the house, Marcus jumps on the line, Syd speaks up, and Carmy gets locked in the freezer. Plus, Pete is a nice guy (??), and Jamie Lee Curtis is BACK!

We're on The Bear Season 2 homestretch now covering two fantastic episodes, "Forks" and "Bolognese".  Hold up... DO WE LIKE RICHIE NOW?! Cousin gets the spotlight spending time learning service at a very high restaurant. There's a cameo from Queen Elizabeth! Taylor Swift tix! And a very fancy deep dish pizza. Meanwhile, Syd and Carmy are swigging Pepto as they await the results of a very very very important gas line test. Plus, Fak hides out in the walk-in fridge.

We're back with a new episode on "The Bear" Season 2! This time, it's ALL about Jamie Lee Curtis. She smashes through her episode like a car crashing through a house! It's a Christmas flashback with Jamie, Gillian Jacobs, two (!) Faks, Sarah Paulson, John Mulaney, BOB ODENKIRK (!), and some unnamed cousin who only appears in one shot. It's a feast of the 7 fishes for the ages!

We're talking all things "The Bear," everyone's favorite "comedy" series, and we're trying to decipher Lisa's notes written in hieroglyphics. 

So, what's up with that dude who crashed his bike into the fence?! Carmy bails on Syd for Claire - boo - but Syd has an amazing Chicago food tour all by her lonesome.  Is there really a cat? Marcus loves a good minty snickers taste. Walls are falling down, pregnancies are revealed, and remember: every second counts.

TV Watchers, we're back with a new series on everyone's favorite "comedy," The Bear! New restaurant plans are in motion after the season 1 finale discovery of cash in the tomato cans, but as always, we're having a lot of anxiety about how this whole thing will work out. Cousin Richie is still the worst, Syd puts her arm through a wall, there is [redacted] lightning, more Sugar and Fak... plus Uncle Jimmy makes a big investment and Carmy reconnects with Claire. Who is Claire?? Stay tuned.

It's the second of our two special episodes on shows we love! This time we're talking about all things Ted Lasso Season 3, and we have lots to say! Starting with, is this really the end???  There are lots of hints both in the show and on Twitter that it might be continuing in some form, and we want to answers!

Plus, why were things between Keeley, Roy Kent, and Jamie left resolved (and why was Keeley's season 3 story line so frustrating)?  Why did the pacing of Nate's villain to redemption feel off somehow? Why were the episodes SO LONG?  How glad are we that Rebecca didn't sell the team? How amazing was it to finally learn Coach Beard's surprising back story?  How much do we LOVE these characters???
