J. Kim Murphy Order up: FX is moving forward with a second season of “The Bear.”The renewal comes almost one month after the premiere of the series, which debuted all eight episodes of its first season on June 23.

Caroline Framke Chief TV CriticOne of the greatest delights television has brought me over the years is any show that knows how to lovingly film a plate of beautiful food, turn the sound up to 11 to hear it sizzle, and trace its origins to the family dinner table from whence it came. Few things can bring people together like food, and few pleasures in this world like taking a bite of something so delicious it makes your eyes water just to know it exists.“The Bear,” FX’s new series about talented young chef Carmen (Jeremy Allen White of “Shameless”) going home to run his dead brother’s sandwich shop in Chicago, is highly attuned to what makes a gorgeous dish.

The Bear spent the earlier part of the week premiering two episodes of the new FX series at the Tribeca Film Festival. It’s the day after Edebiri appeared on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, wearing a show-stopping pink suit, an outfit she modestly describes as a “something that wasn’t a big T-shirt—my uniform.”The 26-year-old actor and comedian is perhaps best known for taking on the role of Missy in the animated series Big Mouth in 2020 following from the role, as well as for her stint on the Apple TV+ series Dickinson, where she went from being in the writers’ room to being cast on screen as Hattie, an employee in the Dickinson household.But The Bear, which premieres on Hulu on June 23, showcases her talent on a whole new level.
