My neighbor said she binged 'The Bear' in one weekend and now I get it

She was talking about the stress of the kitchen scenes being so real it made her anxious, but she couldn't stop watching. I started it last night and blew through four episodes before I even looked at the clock. The way they film the cooking montages is just hypnotic. Has anyone else found a show that pulls you in that fast?

Yeah that show is a straight up anxiety attack but you can't look away. The sound design alone, all the ticket printers and yelling, it just gets under your skin. Felt my own shoulders creeping up to my ears during the "Yes Chef" drill scene. It's like watching a car crash in a really fancy kitchen.

Shoulders up to your ears" is the official body language for watching that show. I start stress-eating just from the ticket printer sounds.
