Rant: my friend Dana says The Bear is a better binge than Breaking Bad and I think she is flat out wrong
Dana and I argued about this for 45 minutes at her place in Austin last week, and she kept saying The Bear hits harder because it feels real. I get that, but a real feeling show is not the same as a show you cannot stop watching at 1am. Breaking Bad had me up until 4am three nights straight, while The Bear had me pausing to check my phone by season 2. What is the actual case for a half hour stress show over a story that pulls you through 62 episodes?
