Naiisip ko pa rin ang "The Bear" weeks after I watched it.

It's a show about a young chef, Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto, who returns to Chicago to run his family's Italian beef sandwich shop after his brother's death.

Carmy is a brilliant chef, but he's also a hot mess. He's addicted to drugs, he's estranged from his family, and he's constantly on the verge of a breakdown.

But despite all of his flaws, Carmy is determined to make the sandwich shop a success. He pours his heart and soul into the food, and he slowly begins to turn things around.

"The Bear" is a great show for a lot of reasons. The acting is superb, the writing is sharp and funny, and the characters are complex and relatable.

But what really sets "The Bear" apart is its depiction of mental illness. Carmy's addiction and his struggles with depression are portrayed realistically and with compassion.

It's clear that the show's creators have done their research, and they've created a character who is both believable and sympathetic.
