The Bear Seasons 1 & 2 Recap and What to Expect Next
Before watching the latest season, you should be familiar with what happened previously [3].
In the first season, Chef Carmen “Carmy" Berzatto, played by Jeremy Allen White, faced intense drama as he took over a family restaurant in Chicago. The restaurant was managed by his brother until he committed suicide.
Carmy had tried to work there before, but his brother rejected him, which drove him to become a renowned chef.
The place called The Original Beef of Chicagoland was a mess. It did not meet health standards and even had cockroaches.
The employees did not want to follow instructions, and all this caused many headaches for Carmy.
In the second season, the transition from The Original Beef to The Bear began. The measures to transform the restaurant into a fine dining establishment included improving cleanliness and renovating the premises.
Carmy’s aspiration was not only to have a better business operation but also to earn a Michelin star. The ambition for success adds to the personal drama of each character, where emotions run high, conflicts arise, and more.
