PEAK

Frederick

Crash out season commences

Kevin

Beautiful first episode. Same with Roshi never seen an episode that clearly conveyed someone’s journey while having them say so little. Lot of themes and parallels. Not gonna lie….still could not care for this Claire focus.

Anthony Lazarin

Such a good episode I was about to cry during the Michael part, then when it cut to Marcus laying in his moms bed…. That shit just hurt. I was bawling

Khayta

Lupa: “I got a sandwich for you…” Roshi: “A KNUCKLE SANDWICH?!?!” 😭

PropheticSage

Syd mentioned in Season 1 that her favourite dish was one of Carmys and this shows that it was one he made expressing his own take on the dish and not one filtered through his dickhead head chef

zaispot

the first 3 is peak after that........ehhhh

Guav

I dont understand people that actively hang up on family instead of just pressing it once to stop the noise, shits so disrespectful to me

Metweet .c

I do like that with showing Claire it highlighted the difference in emotional maturity between her and Carmy. You can definitely say her job is more stressful since people can die in her situation but she knows how to leave her shit at work and not let it take over her personal life. Which is crazy hard considering the hours she does as a medical intern which they highlighted by her waking up at 4am. It's a good way to show why Carmy needed a partner like Claire that understood the stress he was going through and wasn't pushing him for stuff they both knew they couldn't have time for. Which is why I'm not a big shipper at all for Carmy and Syd because the power Dynamic that they have at work would not translate into a healthy relationship at all lol

John Cedar

The editing in this show is so good dude

YaBoyFree

damm they got that talking door bell at the end there XD

Angelica Ilagan

love that y'all liked the episode!! it's def one i keep thinking about over and over. i love how carmy choosing to plate his own dish instead of his asshole chef's and that ending up in front of sydney parallels another moment - sydney choosing to trust her instinct on her cola ribs/risotto dish and giving it to the food critic at the beef. the show is full of crazy callbacks and echoes that are so so well-done - can't wait to see your thoughts on the rest of the season!

Solemnity

I said it when we first saw David in season one, but I think he is training Carmy's ability to stay composed while under immense stress.

Devin B

Usually the asshole chef would criticize Carmy and tell him what he's doing wrong but just the fact he only said fuck you to him meant there was nothing to say about Carmy's work

A

I'm glad the show kinda harped more on Chef David. I honestly thought a lot of the memories and dreams might have been embelished from Carmy's perspective, like he was essentially thinking his own criticisms through David's voice, but nope. Dude was straight torturous to him. And I also like that the series kinda treats beauty as a neutral. It isn't inherently "good" given that Carmy used beauty and perfection and excellence all as escapes from heathily processing things, and now he's doing it again. In David's kitchen, beauty comes at the cost of sanity and dignity. In Terry's it requires some stern guidance but mostly care for the chef and the food equaly

Omar

Not Roshi laughing at a rare Ebra sighting

Delinda Arts

Lupa, the "fuck you" needs to be the S3 Bear intro lmao

Quintin Aldrich

Ik heb respect voor hoeveel geduld jij hebt 👏

Hollow

Richie didn't find Mikey, he was just trying to get ahold of him. In S1 Carm said Mikey shot himself in the head on the State Street Bridge. A common thing for people who don't want their family finding their body.

OnceUponABowl

ngl i laughed too it ruined the sadness

Jean-Marc

I was acting like we was in the same room when the ep started “guys it’s a flashback to how he got to this point” lol but glad yall liked the episode really showed what led to carny being so fractured today

JotaroDrake

W training arc flashback

J Man

I like that they used that conversation with Chef Terry (the nice head chef from Ever), to establish the timeline. The F-you chef was Carmy's first head chef when Carmy was perfect, but more timid. Carmy moving to Ever after showed that the F-you chef put a demon in Carmy, as in a power up. That's why they constantly show Carmy picking on Luca, the Will Poulter chef, and most of Ever that they were all "too slow" and every second counts, because Carmy was splitting peas and juicing oranges at literally 4x speed (which is why they showed the pea buckets side by side). Chef Terry wasn't having it because she prefers a non toxic environment, which we saw in the Richie episode in Season 2. The F-you chef actually powered up Carmy with demon power 😈, but took away some of his humanity, whereas Carmy would have ended up closer to powered up wholesome Richie if Carmy was interning at Ever first. But I understand why he would work at French Laundry first, because in real life it's one of the most famous restaurants in the world that I even know of (I ain't paying $175 for a 2 inch fish with a potato chip on top. Give me a fine dining Japanese $200 omikase meal where they at least spam you with a ton of fine dining Japanese food in bulk). In a way, it's almost like Carmy is on Sasuke time while Richie is Naruto. Or Carmy is Darth Vader, Terry is Obi Wan, and Richie is Luke.

JotaroDrake

Epic meal time😂😂😂

J Man

Jon Burnthal is such a a good actor. He's only in this show as a cameo character for moments at a time but he steals the show. He stole the show away from Rick Grimes the first season of Walking Dead. He was even the best part of that Daredevil season he was in (which got him his own series).

J Man

Mike's funeral happens... *Roshi laughs and Ebra mourning* 😂😆😂

DTGstl314

Carmy's timeline goes French Laundry (California), Ever (Chicago), Noma (Copenhagen), Daniel (NYC), and Eleven Madison Park (NYC). He was in NYC under the a-hole chef when he got the call from Natalie that Mikey had committed suicide. I'm pretty sure last season's Fishes (chaos episode) took place right after Carmy returned from Copenhagen. I think he took up his cousin Michelle's offer to stay with her in NYC shortly after the nightmare Christmas. He was mentored by the gentle older French chef at Daniel as his first job there. Side note - the French chef was Daniel Boulud, the real owner and namesake of the restaurant Daniel (2 Michelin stars). He's a pretty famous French chef. I think Carmy next went to Eleven Madison Park after his time learning under Chef Boulud, and that's where he worked under the piece of shit chef - that was his last job before returning to Chicago after Mikey's death.

Matt

WE BACK BABY, nah this season definitely cemented this as one of my favorite live action shows can’t wait for the next season and these reactions

J Man

34:30 Oh shoot! Carmy subbed out the fennel sauce for the blood orange reduction because the customer had a fennel allergy!!! (Fennel sauce is bomb by the way, I love it). Then we find out that Sydney was the one with the Fennel allergy and it was the best meal she ate (what looks like Hamachi, potato chip, and blood orange reduction). Nice storytelling without much talking! It also probably ended up better than the Fennel meal, which was Fu*k You chef's recipe.

J Man

You might be right, but they did take their time to show him on demon time and not. There's also a phase where Terry sent him to Copenhagen

Jamaal Ellison

So the guy from dexter with Tina is her actual husband.

DTGstl314

The whole episode is a combination of flashbacks from different times in his life (plus the present when he's alone at The Bear in the middle of the night), and they aren't shown in chronological order. It keeps bouncing back and forth between the various stages of his life in various places as he became an excellent chef, all culminating with Mikey's suicide and him returning to Chicago to run The Beef, which was considerably less prestigious than all the places he worked before.

Robert

Actually, the thing I “liked” was that in this episode you can see Chef Terry also used micro aggressions on Carmy. She was nowhere near the level Chef David was to Carmy, but her comments to Carmy were put downs meant to push him harder. Everything Carmy said to Luca was just him parroting what Chef Terry said to him, just Carmy can’t help but yell and let it get out of control. However, my main point is that despite everything, Chef Terry still carries the “stick” method of training her young chefs. Chef culture man…

Robert

“Fennel allergy” is another neat callback to the pilot because Syd’s family meal included a fennel salad, so the allergy thing was BS.

sotonye ogan

cant blame you roshi 😂Ebra making that face cracked me up too lmao.

SnailSpray

watching this makes it make so much more sense as to why high end restaurants are so expensive. its not just about the food that you're eating but the time and experience and understanding everyone had to gain to make the food the way it is. Also the complexity and techniques it requires

DTGstl314

The meal that Sydney is eating by herself in NYC is the one that she told Marcus was "the best meal she ever had" back in the finale of S1.

uniquepeanut

Roshi going to hell for laughing at Ebra LMAO

WacoSwa

Joel mchale is gold lmao. Even tho hes a dick, i wish we saw more of his character😭

Adrian Locke

The intentionality they put into every shot is crazy

WacoSwa

Oh yea i dont think richie found mikey because mikey ended his life on a bridge if i recall correctly

Adrian Locke

I don’t know if people remember, but Sydney had mentioned in one of the earlier episodes that she had gone to New York once and had the best thing she ever tasted at a restaurant that was made by Carmy. Pretty much everything in Carmy’s life is predicated on trauma

A. P.

This was magnificent and made me feel like shit as an editor and cinematographer and I love that for those that worked on this episode lol. Probably a difficult episode to react to considering it was mostly b roll but a great reaction nonetheless which is a testament to both yours and the show's greatness 👏🏾💯 Also, idk what was going on in Roshi's head when they showed Ebra, but somehow we started laughing at the same time so I guess we both need Jesus lol

CentipedeKid

I just noticed the guy putting the blanket on Carmen was his cousin in law from season 2 at family dinner.

CentipedeKid

He was probably looking for him and realized he wasn't there which started the search that led to them finding him.

DTGstl314

I think what happened after the Christmas dinner from hell is that Carm took up his cousin Michelle's offer to come stay with her in NYC.

DTGstl314

I think this is Carm's timeline... The French Laundry (a real place) in California, then Ever in Chicago (also, a real place), then Noma in Copenhagen (yup, real place), then the insane family Christmas dinner, then Daniel in NYC being mentored by well-known French chef Daniel Boulud (a real person whose restaurant Daniel is a real place), and finally Eleven Madison Park in NYC (rhymes with seal mace), where the dickhead executive chef worked. Mikey's suicide occurred while Carm was at Eleven Madison Park, so that's the last place he worked before moving back to Chicago and taking over The Beef. Anyway, all of the real restaurants Carm worked at are Michelin-starred in the real world... he wasn't lying when he said that he succeeded at his dream of working at the best restaurants in the world.

Seibahhh

wouldve worked better as the s2 finale tbh

Sylarkz

commented this about a year ago now but ill ask again, does anyone else experience a constant static in every one of roshis videos here? ive tried watching on different platforms pc, mobile etc with different browsers but still face this issue. ive kinda just dealt with it for like 3 years on here lol but would love if anyone is also experiencing this and knows any fix.

BONE

Nahh ive never gotten that

Lezu

Now that you mention it, yeah I hear it. I only noticed when I raised the volume. I am not sure about all his reactions though. Or maybe I am just used to it.

aSackOfDerp

I always hear it too, dont think there is a fix. Might just be the mic they use

John Cedar

Yeah I have to turn it up all the way with headphones to notice it, but it's there. Probably a combination of their mic setup and background noise, like an AC unit.

Sylarkz

yeah i always listen to stuff quite loud haha especially immersive shows like the bear so i notice a lot more in these shows with a lot of silence and quiter scenes. i assumed it was their microphone but still slightly frustrating, my only complaint with roshis content haha, a trivial issue though.

WickedRonin

I’m right there with Lupa, we gotta fight after you said “Fuck you” behind my back. And when lupa said I gotta special sandwich for you. 😂😂😂

DTGstl314

Yeah, Copenhagen (specifically, Noma) was the place he went to after working at Ever under Chef Terry. And we know it was before NYC, because on the Christmas episode, everybody keeps asking him about Copenhagen, which seems to indicate that's where he was right before then. His cousin Michelle asked him if he wanted to come stay with her in NYC, so you know his NYC life all took place after that Christmas, and that he was there all the way up until Mikey's death. When Chef Terry asked him at one point where he had experience before coming to Ever, he said The French Laundry and a family restaurant (obviously referring to The Beef), where he didn't actually cook, he just hung out. That's when she asked him if he had ever been to Copenhagen and he said he hadn't. I have no idea how much time each of these various periods in his life lasted when he was moving around, but I'm guessing he was probably in New York City for about 4 years, started working at Daniel under Chef Boulud when he first got there and at some point took a job as the CDC at Eleven Madison Park (evil Joel McHale executive chef restaurant).

Louis

The casual „fuck you“ is insane 😂 niggah walked by like he wanted to say „good morning“

J Man

We need an Ebra episode

L1NG

ROSHI!! DROP ALL EPS RN AND MY LIFE US YOURS

Lamaree Jackson

Can we talk about these anime ass peas though?! Like damn lol

Phonzi

The best recap episode I’ve seen on TV .. made a nigga teary eyed

raeven b.

Man, I'm still on season 2 and had to take a break from the christmas dinner episode because it was so chaotic I physically couldn't stand it lol the show is so good but it's so painfully raw sometimes that it stresses me out

HBK713🏄🏾‍♂️

First show I ever I watched where I now will have to make sure I don't try to binge only 2-3 episodes a week max lol

Jaelyn Mcgee

I've gotten it constantly where the screen will freeze while the audio will still play or randomly static which isn't bad with something with English audio but is hell with Japanese subs cause I miss vital stuff

Gabriel Sanchez

yeah i dont think richie found him...i think mikey was high as hell passed out in that bathroom and just going MIA

Mack

That episode was so beautifully moving. Just a perfect way to remind you why the success of the restaurant is so crucial to everyone ESPECIALLY Carmy. I was teary eyed both times I saw it.

Mack

People give it some hate and Im not sure why but he was also excellent in the Punisher too (shouts outs to Ebon aka Ritchie who was also on the Punisher)

J Man

You totally right. Hence why he was so good in Daredevil, that they gave him his own also good series... Mikey and Richie both in there...

Kainoa

I thought so, but didn’t carmy say in season 1 finale that he shot himself on a bridge? I know it was a nightmare so maybe he didn’t know what actually happened, because he started away and didn’t want to know all the details because it hurt so much

Jaylennn

no it was richie and it was in like episode 2 when they went to get caulk with sydney, oh wait, as i was typing this i remember carmen also said this in the dream sequence in the finale so yea ur right lol

YungZeus

Lemme tell you sumthin

Ribking

"They definitely wrote him out the show. There's no way they - oop." One of my favorite moments in reaction content ever!

Katsa Middluns

How did I NEVER realize it was him??

AnnaSama

I rewatch this episode now and again (like tonight) when I reeeeally don't feel like making dinner for my family. Instant motivation every time!
