FX is sticking with what works. The Bear will continue to be released in the binge-release format on Hulu. The popular comedy-drama series was renewed for a third season in November and the new episodes will arrive on the streaming service in June 2024.
Starring Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, Lionel Boyce, Abby Elliott, Liza Colón-Zayas, Edwin Gibson, and Matty Matheson, the FX series was created by Christopher Storer. The story follows a former NYC chef (White) who now runs his family-owned sandwich shop in Chicago.
John Landgraf, Chairman of FX Networks, said the following about the release schedule of The Bear during the TCA’s, per Deadline:
“We all watched the first season and it wasn’t lost on me or anyone else who worked on the show that it’s a little anxiety inducing to watch that show and anxiety inducing are not the adjectives typically associated with hit television shows and Emmy awards. So we made a decision that we would drop the whole thing because for those of you who saw it, it has a really beautiful, very uplifting ending.
When we came back for Season 2, we debated, since we knew now that we had a hit, can we milk it a little bit? Can we roll it out over weeks, more Bear is better? We then thought that’s a rotten thing to do, to change it up for the audience. The way that Chris makes it, even though the episodes are separate, there’s a whole vibe to every season so we decided not to change what we had already set in motion and I have no doubt that we’ll keep doing it because we did it in the past. Even if we could, I don’t think we’d change it now.”
The specific premiere date and additional details for season three of The Bear will be announced later.
