    this show is so much better than Shameless lol but if you liked him as Lip you’ll love him as Carmy. This show honestly feels like a spin-off of Shameless that focuses on Lip opening up a restaurant.

    my reading comprehension skills are in the gutter

    Nah I did the opposite (I’ve watched Bear, haven’t watched Shameless)

    But real, thanks for the info!

    Anyone here watched Shameless before? Want to watch it because of Jeremy

    It suffers from showtime’s inability to finish shows while they’re still on top, so a lot of the later seasons suck. I’d say if you want a throughly good watch and to spend a shorter time with the dysfunctional family, watch up to s4. If you start loving the characters and want to see it through, watch up to S7. Either one serves as a fulfilling finale more then the actual one and without the awful later seasons

    Yeah word I went on autopilot bc most people have seen shameless before the bear haha

    But like proper said it’s good for the first couple seasons, then after a while it seemed like the writers didn’t really know what to do with the characters.

    I’d definitely check it out until you start to lose interest in it, it’s worth it for Jeremy and Emmy Rossum alone

    Oh yeah, NBC had no idea how to promote this show. It didn’t fit with the other shows on their network at the time, so they tried making it look like it fit.

    Really appreciate this thread (didn't even know the bear existed until seeing this thread a few days ago šŸ’€) and this section in general

    Been trying to watch more television and film with a critical eye to feed into my own storytelling pursuits instead of watching stuff just being something to wait out my day/health problems

    And it's cool being able to come here and get mad suggestions for stuff I've never heard about, seeing people actually discuss what's going on/break stuff down vs just small talk about watching the same show, the joking, the community etc ofc

    Gonna for sure try to be in here more consistently
