That 10 episode show I avoided for 3 months finally got me
I kept seeing The Bear pop up in every recommendation thread but the kitchen stress angle felt too close to my own chaotic workdays, so I skipped it until last Friday. After three episodes of the second season I was hooked, the way they film the kitchen chaos just pulls you in and the characters actually grow on you. Has anyone else avoided a hyped show for a long time and then got completely sucked in after one weekend?
Man, I did the exact same thing with Breaking Bad. Put it off for years because everyone would not shut up about it. Watched the first four episodes in one night and then called in sick the next day to keep going. Sometimes the hype is real and you just have to eat your words.
