I don't understand the love for this show. My wife watches it, and randomly I'll catch a few minutes of it, and I swear every single scene is depressed people screaming at each other, or repeatedly yelling the word CHEF a thousand times in a row. Is there a single scene when a person smiles? Is happy? I call it "the yelling show".

It's a lot like Mad Men. No one does anything interesting in that show either. I've watched it five or six times now and they still haven't done anything interesting. I'll probably watch it again just to double check.
My wife has worked in restaurants AND in TV, and the first two seasons had her absolutely entranced (I ... am not a TV person, though it's impossible to say that without sounding smug). This season? "They started sniffing their own farts," was her reaction after the first couple of episodes, after which she stopped watching.
And the ratings for this season are worse than the first two by a long shot.
Edit: Downvote all you want but the audience score for season 3 is currently 58% compared to the prior 2 seasons of 92%+. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/the_bear/s03
this season was a psycheout, nothing really happened, at all. it was like one long 10 episode final ep epilogue of season 2, lots of filler like the faks, the bottle eps with mom/birth and tina, didn't hit, at least for me. found myself fast forwarding through most of the season, looks like all the "happening" will take place in the "to be continued" sesaon 4, but i felt the shows producers took advantage of us viewers, and the shows popularity, to push out an ill conceived bloat of a "season". i am severely dissapoint.
I agree with all of this! This season was terrible. The flow was so different from the first two seasons it was almost like a completely different show. The 4th season better BRING it. Really disappointing.
