Summer is heating up, and the hit FX/Hulu series “The Bear” will be turning up the temperature with a brand-new batch of episodes. Season 2 of “The Bear” will be even longer than the first, clocking in at 10 episodes as opposed to the eight that fans inhaled in Season 1.
“The Bear” follows Carmine (Carmy for short), a young fine-dining chef who comes home to Chicago to run his family’s sandwich shop. As he fights to transform the shop and himself, he works alongside a rough-around-the-edges crew that ultimately reveals themselves as his chosen family.
Season 2 of the series debuts on Hulu on Thursday, June 22. It will drop all 10 episodes at once, using the binge-release method that two-thirds of streaming users prefer. Review embargos on Rotten Tomatoes haven’t been lifted yet for the new episodes, but 100% of critics gave the first season a positive assessment. That certainly bodes well for Season 2.
