Ok. The opening 6 minutes was like the start of rocky 3. This is the bear I have been waiting for since season 1 and 2. 
Great start to the season. Episode 1 was only 21 minutes.
Rainy Chicago scenes felt like a blockbuster movie. We find out about the wreck from the ending of "Gary".
My perfect ending for this show would be to cut ties with the fine dining establishment of the bear and go back to what worked from the beginning. The Beef sandwich shop. Why do you want to work longer hours, never make a profit, be stressed out 24/7, stay broke, and never make enough to raise a family or much less live. While you could do what Rob Reiners character said and franchise the beef sandwich shop and make more money and feed the hard working people in Chicago. Instead of some entitled douche who is willing to pay $75 for 3 Brussel sprouts I could grow in my backyard for 45 cents.

Sick house music score so far in these first 2 episodes
Sydney still never has said a full sentence in the entirety of the show. Her entire dialogue is “like. Um.. yeah.. I mean.. sure”
Edit: this season setup takes place all in one day right after the season 4 finale

Just looked it up after finishing the 2nd episode because I was so impressed
The original score for season 5 of The Bear was composed by Christian Lundberg of Bleeding Fingers Music and produced by Academy Award-winner Hans Zimmer

First two episodes were very good. Less screaming in the kitchen, the better.

Got through 7 episodes. It’s much better than the 2 previous seasons.

Good final season.
Enjoyed a full ‘day in the life’ perspective.

I love the calm and cool Carmy. I couldn't handle the old carmy anymore.
So many great characters on this show that you root for. I heard Rob Reiner was supposed to film some scenes for this season before his death.

I want to hit Sydney with my car…
Why can she not finish a damn sentence?
She’s also an a-hole and extremely unlikeable.
Everyone else has something else about them that draws you in somehow, except her.

I'm gonna start watching the new season soon, but yeah, Syd fricking sucks.
I've never liked her character. After everything he did for her and she was gonna leave, frick off.
I remember when she won some award for the show and it seems like she talks like that in real life. I don't know, but I can't stand her.
Someone said the Faks suck, but they make me laugh.

finished episode 3. This season is on par with season 1 and 2 so far. It feels like a movie all happening in one day.
The amount of great characters you fall in love with and want to seem them thru their journey is unreal. What's more shocking is they have managed to make me hate Sydney for 5 straight seasons. This bumbling idiot shouldn't be running a restaurant much less trying to finish a fricking sentence.
I have no idea where they are going with the rest of the season and I love that.
This
They need to be confined like Jean Ralphio in parks in rec. Too much of them is a bad thing but just the right amount like in this season is the perfect balance.

The last 5 minutes of episode 4 is just so elite television with the score and the gameplan and everyone bought in . When the bear is on, it is ON its just so good
Posted on 6/26/26 at 7:05 pm to Lawyered
Finished binging it today.
They nailed this season. Felt really well executed, tons of chaos and anxiety but it finally had a payoff.
Season 3&4 had anxiety and chaos that felt like it went nowhere.
S5 really had a point and it was refreshing.
Wish they would have given more clarity on Carmy’s situation after the restaurant, but I think keeping it a little vague is still a good choice

On episode 2. I forgot how much the show stresses me out.
Posted on 6/26/26 at 8:22 pm to The Eric
Just finished episode 4. This is how you finish out a show. I'm so glad I didn't give up on it. The episodes are flowing through with perfection. The whole rain and bad weather vibes matches perfect with this final season.
Did anyone notice Jess is pregnant in season 5 in real life. She looked a little heavier to me so I went check. I can't decide who my favorite character is because there are so many. This is the first episode I didn't really hate Sydney.
Richie speech at the end
Seeing the crew come out in the OG Beef shirts gave me goosebumps.

Finished all episodes today. This was a great season. The ending was sorta meh, but way better than. The last two seasons. I loved that there wasn’t all kinds of screaming and hollering. That shite gave me anxiety
Posted on 6/26/26 at 10:17 pm to Kracka
Episode 5 felt like the calm before the storm. I'm loving the computer, cheese, and Uncle Jimmy this episode. I have a feeling episode 6 or 7 will be one of those all time great tv episodes of the bear. Here we go.
Posted on 6/26/26 at 11:41 pm to Kracka
Episode 6 had me so stressed out from the start to finish. My boy Pete is killing it this episode and always doing the heavy grinding for this restaurant. Sugar is looking good in season 5. Cheese and Ebraheim are so good together. (spoon thief).
Marcus turned into Carmy for a quick second. These people need to drink more at the table why they wait. That’s the point of relaxing and going eat out. This is when the bear is at its best. A masterpiece in television. Can't imagine what E07 has in store.

Just finished Episode 7
This entire season was building upon this moment and boy did it deliver even more than I expected. It was like watching the 97 bulls at their best in action. They turned the outside into a relaxing fun environment that normally wouldn’t be allowed at such restaurants. The fact that every character from the beginning is in the restaurant but doesn’t feel forced. It kind smells like skittles line had me rolling. Perfect timing. Was so happy for my boy who played minor league baseball. Alan the customer and his wife was fully locked in doing the napkins in the kitchen was a great scene. Towels up chef, Thank you alan. Its not a good sign she knows your name
I love the little shoutouts to Chicago throughout the series. In comes the legendary Chicago weatherman Tom Skilling with the Michelin guy to review the restaurant. It was so intense when fak walked up to the michelin guy with his hands out and the server went “OH frick” HE”S GONNA RUIN THE STAR.
It was hard not to get choked up when fak said thank you. For what? I feel good doing this. It was Faks Fork moment and that one hit hard. The scene when the 9 courses are happening with Jamie Lee Curtis going thru what is essentially Carmys life the past 15 years in that notebook that she missed out on while showing us how each dish came to fruition was one of the best moments from this show and the score just drove it home. Marcus coming out to see his dad was another gut punch. Was Alan the underrated MVP of the episode?
That was one of the most intense, emotional, rewarding, and amazing hour of television I’ve ever seen. That was as close as you could get to the perfect tv episode.

Episode 7 was fantastic. Spoiler Alert- I actually kind of choked up a little bit when Marcus cut the candle..
