You can see why this show practically had a clean sweep at the Emmy’s for the cast and crew. Even wining Best “Comedy” series.
@dtgstl31482 ай бұрын
I think part of the reason the producers submitted the show in the Comedy category is because its average episode length is around 30 minutes, whereas most dramas tend to be closer to an hour per episode, and there are more comedic moments in this show than there are in most dramas. I also think they knew that submitting it as a Comedy meant they wouldn't have to compete directly with Succession for all the awards (Succession essentially swept all the Drama category awards at the last Emmys), so I imagine the choice was at least a bit strategic - it's unlikely it would have won as many awards if it had been submitted as a Drama. A few years back, the Netflix show Orange is the New Black had a similar conundrum. It was initially submitted for consideration as a Comedy series, but at some point after the first season the show's producers decided to start submitting it as a Drama, even though the tone of the show remained essentially the same for its entire run.

As a person who worked in restaurants for many years i can tell you that i saw many moments that you would think people wouldn't come back from , but they did ,and sometimes they had many strikes against them , and still they came back . Including bosses that bailed out staff from jail . I saw everything from arguments to brawls. Sometime between customers, sometimes between staff , and sometimes between staff and customers. And high end restaurants were certainly not immune from the drama. All these years later i have an occasional dream where i am the only person servicing the customers, and i am so in the weeds , and the customers keep coming, and anxiety is so real , it's oppressive. But never do i think , ok i'm just going to leave . Wow i have been needing to get this out since episode one .

So I'm someone who dips in and out of watching the genre of reaction content but your channel is one that I always come back to revisit. I'm so glad you two got around to reacting to The Bear! The enthusiasm with which you two engage in every show or film you decide to watch is utterly infectious and most importantly I'm in love with just how much empathy you show to stories where characters especially are dealing with hardships or pain. It really does touch my spirit to see you two being moved in the same way this show in particular moved me. Lots of love from the UK and looking forward to seeing your reactions to Season 2.

SO many good episodes. but you pointing out mikey doing what he did to shield carmy really resonated with me. i was barely double digits when my alcoholic father began estranging himself. i was always told he was ashamed that he couldn’t get sober. but somehow it took you pointing out that maybe shame isn’t the only reason for an addict distancing themselves, that maybe addicts stay away because they’re attempting to protect others from what they’re dealing with. two decades after his death and this never occurred to me until you vocalized it. and it’s entirely possible because whatever else he ever was, he was always a great dad. love that you guys love this show - hope you upload season 2 with a quickness!

Pretty sure they classified this as a comedy so that it didn't/doesn't have to go up against Succession and other prestige dramas and can still sweep the awards. Which it did this year for season 1.
@tzikehrusso20972 ай бұрын
Nope - it's classified as a comedy because it's in the ~30 minutes category and not the ~1 hour category. That's how they divide them -- which used to work a million years ago when those were the rules for genre format and there were only three networks and no cable. The industry really needs to fix it, but it's hard to turn something that big in another direction with any kind of speed.
@dtgstl31482 ай бұрын
@@tzikehrusso2097 The showrunners decide how to submit the show - the producers of The Bear specifically chose for it to be considered in the Comedy categories. The show Orange is the New Black was submitted to the Television Academy as a Comedy for its first season by Netflix (and was nominated in the Outstanding Comedy category), and then submitted as a Drama for its second season (and was nominated that year in the Outstanding Drama category) and every subsequent season after that. The average episode length didn't change between the first and second seasons - roughly 60 minutes per episode for both seasons - nor did the tone of the show. It changed categories only because the producers chose to submit it in different categories. If FX, Hulu, or showrunner Chris Storer wanted The Bear to be considered in the Drama categories, they would submit the show in those categories. The Television Academy does get the final say on whether a show should be considered a Comedy or Drama, but for shows that have both heavy comedic and dramatic elements (dramedies), they'll generally defer to the producer's choice on how the show should be considered. Succession theoretically could have submitted itself as a Comedy if the producers had wanted to, but they felt confident that the show could be a strong contender in the Drama category despite being arguably the funniest nominee in the category every year. All that said, the actors, writers, and directors don't get to diverge from the category the show itself has been submitted in - if the producers want the show to be considered for Outstanding Comedy, then the actors must submit themselves for Outstanding Lead/Supporting Actor/Actress for a Comedy as well.

Omg let’s go!!! I’ve been waiting for this :) Loved Carmy’s monologue. It was so well done! Jeremy killed it. Unbelievable how it was around seven minutes with no cuts. The way he expressed everything was delivered perfectly. Great writing and great performance on his part. It was very necessary for him to move forward. As for the finale itself, it was such a great one. Everyone at the end smiling and laughing brings me to tears every time. I’m such a sucker for the found family trope. This show does a great job making you get attached to these characters. They mean so much to me and I love their wholesome but dysfunctional dynamic. It’s exactly what family is: Thoughtful chaos. Also, they all deserve the very best after all the struggles they had to go through. Anyway, this was simply satisfying and there’s a lot more great things coming your way in season 2, so brace yourselves for even more chaos and greatness. Also, I don’t know if you guys noticed this, but the pilot episode ended in such a clever way with Carmy throwing out the can of tomatoes. Here, we see him finally opening it and it really brings in that “full circle” moment to fruition. One of the finest shows on the air right now and I’m being so serious about this!!! It’s truly become one of my favorites. Definitely in the top 5. Thanks for your reactions to it. They always make my day 😭❤️
