Perhaps FX thought fans would forget about The Bear after the network dropped a Season 3 teaser last week before Memorial Day Weekend. Never fear, the network released another trailer on Wednesday afternoon.
While Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach are all listed as stars of the show, FX could have listed another: The CTA. The new trailer is chockful of the El whether it’s various train stops or the comforting rumble of the trains in the background. Given the CTA’s well-documented problems, from late-arriving trains to wacky political hijinks, consider this positive PR. Unlike Mayor Brandon Johnson’s nominee for the RTA board, it appears someone involved in production has actually ridden the CTA. Public transportation has been a strong theme in the previous two seasons.
Season 3 debuts on Thursday, June 27, and last week, FX unveiled new signage for the restaurant, which shares the same color scheme as the NBA’s Memphis Grizzlies instead of the orange and navy from Chicago’s football team. The remodeled beef stand went extinct at the end of Season 1, with the debut of a new fine dining restaurant. During the two-minute and 20-second trailer, Carmy Berzatto announces his cheffy intentions: “We’re going to get a star,” he declares.
Presumably, that’s of the Michelin variety, but who knows in The Bear universe, a world that includes Chomp Chicago, a digital publication that bears a striking resemblance to Eater Chicago. Another scene shows Tina Marrero (Liza Colón-Zayas) sniffing a black truffle and going to a market set up outdoors in a space that looks a lot like Longman & Eagle in Logan Square (signage from Antioch’s Jacobson Family Farms makes a cameo). Marrero also seems perplexed by Carmy’s intention of changing the menu daily, or as Richie Jerimovich (Moss-Bachrach) calls them “the scribblings of a madman.” Tensions in the kitchen run amok through the trailer, even as an unmistakenly pregnant Natalie Berzatto (Abby Elliot) directs traffic around the restaurant.
The intrigue builds as Carmy offers Sydney Adamu (Edebiri) a partnership in the restaurant so they can be on equal footing and push each other. Not to give everything away, but for folks ardent about ensuring Carmy and Syd don’t fall romantically for each other, there are developments. Especially with the return of Carmy’s ex-girlfriend, Claire (Molly Gordon), who ditched the chef at the end of Season 2 during his restaurant opening meltdown in the walk-in fridge.
The footage also revisits the bulletin board of misfits filled with photos of food critics revealed earlier in the year: “If any food critics come in, it’s code red,” Neil Fak (Matty Matheson) tells brother Ted (Ricky Staffieri). If there’s any irony, there aren’t many food critics left in Chicago, so carry on.
The Bear Season 3 releases on Thursday, June 27 with all episodes available via Hulu.
