The Bear season 3 preview

Over two seasons we’ve followed Carmy (White) as he’s worked tirelessly to transform his late brother’s sandwich shop, The Original Beef of Chicagoland, into a destination restaurant. Despite saddled with huge debts, permit problems, and a workforce resistant to change, The Beef eventually became The Bear, thanks to ambitious chef Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) and an ensemble of compelling characters.

Okay, so the restaurant’s soft launch was hampered by a meth-smoking line cook and a chronic shortage of forks. But for most of its staff, it was a transformative success. Not for Carmy, sadly. By the episode's end, he was in a self-loathing spiral, pushing away those who loved him most – including his new girlfriend Claire (Molly Gordon).

While season 3 finds Sydney emboldened having slayed the dragon of self-doubt, Carmy’s high standards don’t ease up as he pursues an all-elusive Michelin star. The Bear is his dream, but it’s also the monkey on his back, the focus of his obsessive quest for perfection. Consequently, series creator Christopher Storer explains that Carmy "wants to save [The Bear], but maybe he also wants to wreck it." Can he let go of the need to prove himself and find the happiness he deserves with Claire?
