Q-tips say: Yes, we did enjoy this series “The Bear.” Enjoyed the scenes of Chicago, restaurant cooking & it also delves into the personal lives of the workers. A tad bit of cursing but nothing we have not heard before. Well written, well shot, the characters have depth and are complex on every level. The Bear tells a compelling story of human struggle, relationships, and the unpredictability of life.
