Since The Bear arrived on our screens in 2022, the FX show has become somewhat of a cultural phenomenon. Combining comedy and chaos in the kitchen, the TV series led to Emmy awards and even merch. Now, we’re re-joining Carmy and Sydney back in the Chicago restaurant in season three (yes, chef!)

In the first series, Jeremy Allen White’s chef Carmy returns home from fine dining in Europe to manage The Original Beef of Chicagoland, a rundown sandwich shop owned by his brother Michael, who recently died by suicide. In season two, Carmy and Ayo Edebiri’s Sydney are preparing to open a new restaurant, The Bear, with the help of his sister Natalie (played by Abby Elliot) and cousin Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). From that Christmas episode (complete with a scene-stealing Jamie Lee Curtis) to Lionel Boyce’s Marcus’s odyssey to Copenhagen to learn the art of the desserts, season two for lauded by critics and viewers alike.

But the series finale ended with more questions than answers. The opening night of the restaurant saw Carmy locked in a refrigerator, Sydney throwing up outside, Marcus with missed calls from his mother’s nurse and Carmy’s love interest Claire left heartbroken.

As for season three, the teaser trailer confirms chaos is set to ensue once more. From its release date to how to watch The Bear in the UK, here’s everything you need to know.
