I am trying to space out my watching of the Bear season 3 but it's so hard. You know the show is good when it's a flashback episode, and you know it turns out ok, but you are still on the edge of your seat the whole time.

I'm partway through s3 e9 and I definitely found this season a lot more spaced out and chill than the past two seasons. It seems to be the reason it's not so popular either, but I like it. More slow-burn character exposés and a great showcase of the acting talent, after the frenetic pace of the last two seasons. I've read that they filmed s4 at the same time so it tracks that they're taking longer with plot developments this time around.

I'm not that far yet. Just finished the Tina episode. I just love the characters and for such relatively short episodes they really pack a lot of depth in. I am enjoying the pace too

Even with the slower pace there's so much going on in each episode. It's sort of a beautiful fleshed out epilogue to s2. I loved the Tina episode that way. Also, that long montage of all the service workers in s3e2, that made me feel so connected and proud to be part of a society for a moment

I found watching series one so stressful. Does it get better?

[–] imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

Well..it's certainly still stressful but I have enjoyed it the whole way through. S2 had a couple of very intense episodes but S3 is more chill (tho I am waiting for something terrible around the corner).
