After a year of anticipation, The Bear Season 4 is finally coming out this month!
The majority opinion is that Season 3 was a disappointment. Compared to the earlier two seasons of The Bear, the last season had significantly less plot development than the previous ones.
However, the Season 4 trailer gives me hope that the upcoming season will be a delicious delight.
The Season 4 trailer was recently released, and everyone has been cooking up theories about what’s happening next.
The trailer is full of the classic tension and storybuilding that made us fall in love with the show in the first place.
The anticipation is killing everyone!
So, without further ado, let’s dive into the new trailer for the next season of The Bear.
Setting the Stakes at the Restaurant in The Bear
Season 3 left off with the characters waiting for reviews to come in for the new restaurant.
The new season will surely answer the long-awaited question that the season finale left off.
But the trailer also set up the stakes for the new restaurant’s development.
Even after the reviews, the restaurant, named The Bear, needs to maintain its prestigious status.
Especially for highbrow restaurants like The Bear, it’s crucial not only to stay popular but also to maintain a good standing with affluent customers.
Of course, The Bear wouldn’t be the show it is without the workplace pressure.
The ever-present clock that haunts the characters is seen in the trailer.
This implies that there will definitely be a really intense deadline for the characters, especially in the kitchen.
Additionally, in the trailer, the chefs appear to have another constraint: money.
Even though The Bear is a high-end restaurant, the way the chefs have been running it, they are quickly running out of money.
For The Bear Season 4, the characters will likely need to figure out how to attract more customers and increase their profits.
Hopefully, they can find a way to ensure their business is thriving and keep The Bear alive.
Pressure on Characters’ Personal Lives
While The Bear is about the restaurant, it is also about the characters’ personal lives.
In the Season 4 trailer, a wedding appears to be taking place.
While several characters appear in the wedding scenes from the trailer, they don’t specify whose wedding it is. Surely, it’ll be a wonderful surprise to find out what the wedding is about.
Additionally, there are several scenes of Carmy and Sydney together.
The Bear is a show that’s mainly about Carmy and Sydney’s relationship. Their dynamic is highly central to the story.
The trailer seemed to indicate that Season 4 will explore their friendship and dig deeper.
Furthermore, Carmy’s mom makes an appearance in the trailer.
Played by Jamie Lee Curtis, this character seemed to wreak nothing but havoc in Carmy’s personal life. There’s no telling how she’ll influence the chef’s life in the new season.
Maybe Carmy’s family life won’t be the only one explored. Season 4 could potentially introduce more characters’ family members and give us more insight into their lives.
The Bear always finds a way to surprise us.
So, even though the trailer has given us some hints about what might happen in the new season, there are definitely plenty of surprises that await.
