Oh and while I'm here I'll also say that while I thought The Bear season 4 was better than season 3 it still can't hold a candle to 1 and 2.
The show is an actor's dream. All of the individual performances are great. But it's just comically self indulgent. 90% of the show is extreme close ups of intense conversations to the point where it feels like parody. Jeremy Allen White seems to have nearly the same conversation with every character on the show. And I think the repetitiveness is intentional since he's trying to break the cycle but I found myself saying "yeah, we already know" more than a few times
The entire season was pure Emmy bait, especially the wedding episode. There's a long conversation between Gillian Jacobs and Sarah Paulson, two completely minor characters, a conversation that basically gets repeated later like every other moment in the show. Feel like it existed for no reason other than Christopher Storer is fucking Gillian Jacobs and wants her to be the reel clip they pick for the Emmys.
