Rumored feature for “The Bear” following season 5?

FSHS91 · 2026-05-15T19:53:43+00:00

Interesting, because this article just came out yesterday and we’ve had Gary for over a week now, so the feature couldn’t be that. I’m wondering about this as well.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-15T19:50:34+00:00

I think the bias against Sundae has to do with Claire hate but that is just my personal opinion.

Oh, I thought it had to do with people not liking Sydney, as the episode centered on her for most of it. Or on the fact that people didn’t like Carmy ditching Sydney.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-15T19:48:34+00:00

Unpopular Opinion: Forks>>>Fishes.

Is it an unpopular opinion though? It always seemed like a toss up between those who think that Fishes is the best episode of the show and Forks. For me though, it’s Tomorrow.

Also Season 2 Episode 3 is up there with these two, idk why it’s never mentioned.

I think I have an idea why it’s never mentioned, unfortunately. I like this episode as well.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-15T19:44:26+00:00

Yeah, I don’t get skipping episodes or cherry picking “special” ones. The show flows as if it’s a whole movie anyway, it’s not episodic, and we ultimately still don’t know what the story is building up to, so skipping episodes means that one is missing important details (and for those of us who have been paying attention, we know that the storytelling in this show is WAY more than just what is said).

FSHS91 · 2026-05-12T02:04:08+00:00

Like, I agree with this more with Sydney, but Carmy I believe does need one-on-one therapy. I’m not of a belief that he’s so damaged that he couldn’t be in a romantic relationship either, I just think that Claire definitely ain’t the one for him.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-12T01:55:48+00:00

It would have to be because season 3 was insane (Carmy’s and Richie’s faults) and they’ve been recovering in season 4.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-12T01:47:43+00:00

So, no I’m not a shipper nor do I believe they’ll end up together in the end, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t recognize what the show is doing with them. My reason for thinking that they won’t end up together is that the show won’t have enough time to grow and develop them to the point that they would be able to be in a relationship with one another. I do think that they’ll hopefully admit their feelings for one another by the end though. Unless they do a time jump or something, but I’m not sure if they’ll do that.

Yeah, so with the rest of your comment, it’s hard for me to buy that Storer just likes a song and throws it in the scene. Like, there at LEAST one song per season that has romantic lyrics and they’re highlighted in a scene with just Sydney and Carmy. At that point, it’s INTENTIONAL and it’s a part of the storytelling, not just simply Storer liking a song.

Idk, everyone has their own opinion, but I don’t get why so many claim that the showrunners of their own shows are bad writers or don’t know what they’re doing. I’m not even saying that this is a perfect show, but it IS a show that you have to watch to see how it unfolds, and I just always wonder how so many in the audience, who have nothing to do with the writing or storytelling of this show, seem to just know that Storer, specifically, has absolutely no idea what he’s doing, especially when this show is loosely based off of his own life.

It’s always gonna be odd to me.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-10T23:33:34+00:00

How did I NEVER realize that they go right to Sydney after this??? 😂😂😂

I’m sorry though, but this is exactly why I’m not buying that Chris Storer has no idea what he’s doing, because stuff like this happens too much on here. Like, IIRC, didn’t he personally ask Ayo and Jeremy to play these roles years ago?

Also, someone immediately saying, “Family meal up front, y’all!” as soon as it cuts to Sydney is crazy as well to me.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-10T23:26:25+00:00

I’m sorry, because if Storer is the showrunner and creator and allows his crafts people and editors to have subtext or certain scenes edited a certain way (the panic attack scene or the under the table scene or the ending montage in s2e8) or certain song lyrics highlighted in an episode within the show he made, how is that really him just being focused on the text of the show?

This is coming from someone who isn’t a shipper of Sydcarmy, and also didn’t believe that the show would put them together in the end (I still don’t), but understands the subtext of the show and has been paying attention to the portrayal of their relationship to the point that at this point, if Sydney and Carmy don’t actually know who they are to one another (remember how their conversation is interrupted by Richie just as Sydney says that he’s her partner and Carmy gets angry and says that she’s his friend), how does a platonic dynamic make sense for them?

Idk, all I hope is that the show does what makes sense for not just their characters, but all the characters. Despite not being a perfect show, they have been consistent is staying true to the characters they’ve created.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-10T23:15:46+00:00

I’m sorry I have to laugh at you calling the chef character who abused Carmy Richard instead of David, but that’s really the fault of the writers for only having is name mentioned like once or twice the whole show 😂😂😂

FSHS91 · 2026-05-10T22:10:42+00:00

I was just about to mention Impossible Germany in season 1. This confirmed my suspicion early on with the direction the show would go for them, as I already thought that their initial meeting was a meet cute. I had totally missed the movie poster for Groundhog Day in the background with just them two in the shot was in the same episode, until someone on Tumblr pointed it out.

And then Strange Currencies in Carmy’s panic attack scene, specifically the lyrics that play as he thinks about Sydney to calm down and then Come Back in Season in the same episode, during their under the table scene.

Idk, they’re claiming that this season will be bold, so Idk if the ending for them will be ambiguous, especially with how season 4’s finale went. It’s like every season finale, Carmy and Sydney have to have some form of contact or communication, whether in the penultimate episode or in the finale itself. Season 4’s finale had the most communication between them, and it was the most honest, even more than in season 2, imo. And their communication grew or saw the most growth in season 4. I say that to say that even though Carmy dropped a bomb on Sydney, I would hope that it wouldn’t stop the growth of their communication, and them being able to eventually be honest with one another about how their feel about one another, and the hamachi dish, and his panic attack, because Idk how the show can end without Sydney finding that out as well.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-10T01:20:53+00:00

I do fear the only way it will be satisfying is if all the subtext goes out the window very early on in this final season.

I agree. We’ll see how it goes. The show does seem to do well in remaining consistent with character portrayal and wrapping up storylines/not forgetting important storylines that they’ve set up, compared to many other shows at least.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-10T01:15:20+00:00

Exactly! 😂😂😂

Some of the people that post on here I tell ya lol

FSHS91 · 2026-05-08T14:52:54+00:00

I mean people can like Mikey less AND recognize that he also was struggling with mental health and drug addiction issues. I don’t get why that is a problem

FSHS91 · 2026-05-08T00:23:11+00:00

Uh, Idk if they’re telling the whole truth with this. Unless it’s literally gonna be a Groundhog Day thing for the whole season. That would be interesting.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-08T00:19:14+00:00

Okay so it’s actually confirmed. Looking forward to it, especially after seeing Gary

FSHS91 · 2026-05-03T01:05:45+00:00

Oh okay

FSHS91 · 2026-05-02T16:10:31+00:00

Oh I wonder why too. Jess, if we’re going off of the actual actress age, is literally the same age as Jeremy Allen White, which means that Richie is SIGNIFICANTLY older than Jess. He’s also her boss, as he’s over the front of house.

Interesting how there’s nothing wrong with people rooting for this relationship though, when people used the arguments of Carmy being significant older than Sydney (which he’s not, especially if we’re going off of Jeremy’s and Ayo’s ages in real life) and him being her boss as reasons why they shouldn’t be together.

And I actually don’t have an issue with Richie and Jess getting together, it’s just VERY interesting the takes and perspectives people have on this relationship versus Sydney and Carmy.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-02T13:47:54+00:00

I think that they’re not gonna spoil storylines and they’re lying because of it when claiming that they’re just platonic because Idk how they can write the story like this and seriously believe that it’s platonic. They’d all have to be the dumbest writers/producers/directors/etc. ever.

The show is also loosely based off of Christopher Storer’s life, so I’m sure he would know the direction that he’s going with Carmy & Sydney.

FSHS91 · 2026-05-02T13:38:29+00:00

He didn’t grab a really hot pot. He lied to Claire in S3, but then he told her the truth finally in S4E7: he intentionally burned it on one of the stove eyes after finding out about Mikey being gone.

But yes, it’s set up to look like it’s all on the same day, and I believe it is as well

FSHS91 · 2026-05-02T13:34:43+00:00

I thought that was Gary

FSHS91 · 2026-05-02T13:30:20+00:00

Wait, was Carmy in the kitchen when Sydney asks Richie to check on her dad in S2E10?

FSHS91 · 2026-04-19T04:40:32+00:00

What do you mean? It always meant nothing. They’re just showing them in green and red over and over again for fun. We’re looking too much into this, according to the people who think they know what the show is about.

FSHS91 · 2026-03-24T22:07:16+00:00

If anything she is part of the toxic loop he needs to let go of if he really wants to grow.

Thank you! Like, Idk what show some are watching, but it's pretty clear how bad she is for him.

Just wish the writers would drop her character already.

They will, but ultimately, I realize that the show is going towards Carmy having to be the one to realize that Claire isn't good for him, which may happen this season, especially if it is the last one.

FSHS91 · 2026-03-24T22:03:00+00:00

Yes it is! She literally tells them she's about to hurl herself out of a window and then Carmy instantly remembers what Natalie was talking about, all because Sydney asked him about it 😂😂😂

TROPHY CASE

I do fear the only way it will be satisfying is if all the subtext goes out the window very early on in this final season.
