How Ebon Moss-Bachrach Developed His Chicago Accent For “The Bear” 

Which one?

The whole episode I was thinking "If this doesn't end with him going back and simply saying 'i get it now' I'm gonna scream!" And it ended just like I wanted - which is normally not desirable in a show or movie - and it was perfect. And Marcus in Amsterdam...🤌

I sobbed and screamed those lyrics. Everytime I watched it.

Wearing a Pequod's shirt right now. Such a great episode.

omg, yes!

@wanderwoo9468 Jon Bernthal did it for me. He really tries to keep the facade of the regular older brother but dude is hurting. Meanwhile Bob Odenkirk is making a habit of making me hate his characters. First Jimmy Mcgill and now this piece of sh*t.

100% agree. His scenes had me in tears the most. I have loved his work since Girls

at the end of the last episode when he tells claire "I love him [Carmy], but don't tell him" forward to the giant blow up with Carmy cursing Richie out while stuck in the walk in. But Richie replies "I love you. I love you. I love you"

I cried so many times watching the show that I forgot about that scene.

Wish came true!

Never ever ever. Try to compliment anything by comparing to an episode of The LAst of us. its great, its nice. But really? Like yeah sweetie your shit reminds me of a fleshlight i had in college. It doesnt work. it hurts the bear, like it hurts the sweetie.

@@nyxx7813 i can't tell which show you are holding in such an esteemed regard but your indignance is hilarious

@@nyxx7813 Do you always bring "fleshlight I had in college" into conversations so quickly?

Ozymandias >>>

I prefer “Seven Fishes” tbh

Everything on Andor was so on point. I'm still thinking about the everything of it. Marva's speech... Dang.

Andor was pure gold. Honestly I think it hurts it a bit that it's part of the Star Wars franchise, that's how good I think it is.

I *hated* him in the whole first season. Too everything - too loud, too intense, too violent, too impatient, I just wanted somebody to head-butt him and say _chill the fuck out._ Which he eventually did, like switching on a light, in the episode that they sampled here. Just about everybody gets a character upgrade so far, in this series, except "Lip" who doesn't seem to be able to find his confidence. Lots of potential for a season 3, which I see has been announced but with no dates yet🤞

I thought for sure that Ebon was really from Chicago based on the accent. Nope, just a killer actor from the East Coast

He is so good, he also was in the last ship, his so badass

He was in Girls too. Which is when I first saw him.

I personally thought the Christmas episode was too long and a little overkill. Stylistically it was beautiful and I loved certain parts of it, but as whole episode, I don't think it was the best episode of the series. The "exposition" contained in there where you saw the history of mental illness/addiction and the family dynamics was helpful, but it also was super drawn out.

The "forks" episode was a gem. It had so many aspects to it where, like you said, Richie thought Carmy was punishing him and trying to get him to quit because of his own building insecurities and anxiety about "the old way" being pushed out especially with the closure of local bars and restaurants and them changing the whole way of doing things coming to a head. Richie's struggle to find "purpose" up until that point. Nothing overt in the acting just you see through the episode him actually gaining confidence and getting up earlier until he overhears that family never having Chicago pizza before and his strength of knowing people and creating rapport and wanting to "take care" of people comes through and when they give him permission to go get a real pizza, I got choked up. Then him peeling mushrooms with the owner/exec chef and learning "the calm" that can come from working in food too and it's not always chaos, really came to the culmination when Sydney asks Richie to do tickets when they're super stressed out and he brings a "calm" to the atmosphere. Just beautiful storytelling. Plus the looping in of Taylor swifts love story and both the love of his daughter and the really crushing reality of his relationship with Tiff is just ALL the emotions. Sorry I wrote a lot... Just love what they did with Richie.

@@HouseMDaddictabsolutely too long

Ha! Indeed!

Yes

Fuck yeah

And the rest of him is so beautiful too ❤

Yes

💯

They just won Emmys!!!

​@@truelove2283 😊 I heard. I wonder what will happen with the sags. Ebon and Jeremy are in the same category. Gonna be a bear face off

So true. The writers have done a fabulous job creating the bones of Cousin, but this guy brings Cousin truly to life. Love him.

He just won Emmys!!!!

Awards this year were only for season 1 because the strikes messed up the eligibility period, so season 2 (where this ep is from) will be judged in next year’s awards season

Right? In 2000 minimum wage was like $5.50. $17-18 was an awesome wage for a fresh college grad

In college 20 years ago I was a delivery driver for a sub shop, and made a similar amount. It's not that uncommon. Even today, people can hop on Doordash or one of those services (even with just a bike) and make $25-30.

Lol you're not making 25-30 on Doordarshan. Plus that requires owning a decent vehicle (insurance, gas, maintenance, etc)

Gotta make the time, cousin 😊

The Bear is one of the best shows to ever come from a post-streaming over saturated with junk

Andor is so good. It's not good as a Star Wars show, it's just good, period. There are monologues from Andor that I still read from time to time, so powerfully written, delivered perfectly on point by the wonderful cast. With all my heart, please watch Andor. Show Disney that we want more shows like that, and not just a constant onslaught of Star Wars fan service all the time.

His name is Ebon.

When I found out about that I was totally shocked it was the same guy. I had to find a clip from MLS to see. He was younger, yes, but OMG what a chameleon of an actor, wow.

... has aged*

Desi

He'll always be "the guy who ate Allison Williams' ass in Girls" to me.

*pan pizza, but tavern as well

It's the hyphen

I started to watch the series twice before I finally got into it, because I couldn’t stand him. Glad I tried again and stuck with it. What a ride.

Geez, it’s a show, watch something else if you don’t like it.

Yeah, after finishing both seasons I realized it's my favorite show ever

You people have watched the Apple TV series "Ted Lasso" right? As good as The Bear is, Ted Lasso is better. If you haven't seen Ted Lasso, watch it Now.

He was promoting a different show 😂

@@thearmchairjournalist566 i know. I saw it in their eyes they wanted to talk about Andor but were paid to talk about that other show.

@@ioresult totally 😢

You know he’ll never see this, right?

@@Historian212 OH, you'd be very surprised. I've talked to a ton of celebrities just commenting on their posts, and they actually respond. Yeah, this is a news interview so I doubt he will see it. But you'd be super surprised how easy it really is to get in contact with these people.
