Amazing how Jon Bernthal has 1 full scene in this show and it's all he needed to completely portray a character we've only heard small bits about. It's like we really know who the hell Mikey really is just with this one scene. Great show.

Yeah, it was enough to understand that losing a brother and best friend is difficult. Hearing it was sufficient. But then this scene happened. This scene was TOP TIER. It made us see the relationship between Mikey and everyone, it made us love him in such a short amount of time, question how such a happy seeming guy could kill himself, show the communal familial love of food, and it made us mourn his character bc we know what happens. We feel it. Jon Bernthal was an exquisite choice. When I pictured Michael, he wasn’t what I pictured but he fits perfectly.

I feel like that scene was both a tragic punch to Richie’s ego - he’s spending all of his energy keeping Mike alive through himself but cannot possibly match up to the man he was - and it’s a realization that maybe not all the memories he’s trying to keep alive were good things. At this point in the story he’s really really struggling with the cognitive dissonance that came with wanting desperately to hold on to his deceased friend, while being confronted with the fact that Mike’s ways *just weren’t working out*. They weren’t what was best for anyone. I think this is my favorite scene in the whole series. What a bomb of character and plot and recontextualisation. All at once we can see exactly why Richie loved him so much and exactly why he needed to let him go

This scene is a truly magnificent representation of how we feel towards people we have lost too soon. We remember how they told stories, we remember how they cooked for us, we remember how they engaged the family around us, we remember how larger than life they were, and sadly we remember how truly special and unique they were. We cherish the memories of the titans that we once were fortunate enough to cook with and blessed enough to love.

I think this is a really good comment. But I also want to add that the end of this scene, ("6:45?") points out how rose-tinted-glasses can prevent us from seeing red flags. Everyone's really upset at the date for not being interested in the story, but her reaction goes to show the other half of Richie's character; a guy who everybody loves, but nobody can manage to help. Even after his death, his best friends are struggling to figure out what they might have done different and realizing some of their most cherished memories with the guy are actually his cries for help.

I agree though in this context it’s a great example of the red flags that are missed by the departeds loved ones, it also shows how toxic, dismissive/preventive of a open dialogue folk can be about things as well. I personally think Folk and maybe the show are looking too hard at the addiction/use side of this and not the fact that it was self harm that took him in the end. The entire family seemed to be in denial as much as they seemed to have missed the signs of his illness. A denial I’ll bet good money is stemming from the same toxic issues in the family/local culture that made the MCs brother self medicate and isolate to begin with instead of seeking help.

This Is god level writing. This scene alone Is developing 3 characters AT THE SAME TIME and through visuals. You can relate this scene with the carmy monologue.

I know the point of this scene is to highlight Mikey, but to me this scene is really about Richie. I think it really makes us understand how Richie fit into this family, and to an extent, why there is some animosity from Sugar and Carmy towards him now. Sugar and Carmy clearly weren't as close with Mikey as they got older, as neither of them even knew he was using to the degree that he was. But Richie was with him everyday, and I think Sugar and Carmy to some degree blame him for not stopping Mikey from doing what he did.

I’ve always come back to this scene because it genuinely made me happy (apart from the end, of course); now it just makes me sad after S2E6. Incredible writing.

This scene is perfect story telling. You have Carmy whos the chef and Richie whos the story teller/life of the party and then you have Mikey, who is both of them combined.

What I love about the cut to the date is that we as the audience were into the story. In a way, we are a part of the family because we’re laughing and smiling along knowing how special this story is. The woman on the date doesn’t get it like we do. She’s not going to be part of the fam. We’re cousins to the Berzattos, too, now, because we are emotionally connected

The fact that Mike had his arms covered in tattoos while Carmy didn't at the time shows how much he really looked up to him.

The show is great, but I can't stop thinking about this scene. The show works without it but it's like a puzzle where you can already see the picture and this scene is the last piece that completes it. And to see it go from epic to cringe at the highest point in the story is just unbelievably smart writing, the likes of which I don't think I have seen before.

The producer of this show is the same of the upcoming remake of American GIgolo with Jon Bernthal. This is probably how he was convinced to make such a small but iconic role for this show. Perfect casting - he really embodies the larger-than-life, chatty and friendly figure that was Mikey's character.

There is nothing more wholesome than a person who enjoys telling stories as he/she is cooking.

AS oud and brash as Carmy and Ritchie can be its funny seeing them be secondary when in Mikey's orbit

That is a character Bernthal must have in his back pocket and can just effortlessly perform on command. Brilliant!!!

I was literally just thinking of this scene and I saw you guys just now posted it! Love this scene

The writing, the acting, the camera, hell even the chemistry is just beyond anything I've watched before

John Bernthal is one of the best actors in my opinion. Never fails to get into a character. He had only one scene in the ENTIRE season 1, but he was the only character that got me THIS MUCH interested in. You can clearly see Carmy, Richie and Nat was really different with each other when Mikey was around. After he died, they barely talk to each other like human beings. They etiher fight or just have a standart conversations. In my understanding, Mike was kinda like that one friend who keeps the group together yk. He had that cool, older brother energy. Making everyone laugh, creating a fun vibe etc. Every one of them needed him on their personal way. It's so obvious that they really loved him. This scene also shows how their relationship was like with Mike. Every one of them had a different kind of relationship wih him, and you can see it throught with only one scene. For example, Carmy. He's literally admiring him when he's looking at Mikey, but doesn't really show it. He wants to hear more about what he has to say. He's so focus about the story that he's telling like it's a big deal. Throught the episodes, we see Richie telling a lots of stories but Carmy never listens to him; infact, he hates those stories most of the time. But in this scene, you can see he's listening Mikey carefully; even making comments to it and reacting. About Nat, even if she's there it feels like she's very excluded from the conversation. But she seems also interested to the story her brother is telling. She looks at him yelling 1:31 just shows that she loves him, but can't really be a part of the conversation. And then there's Richie. This scene is more about him actually. He's telling a story that he went throught with Mike, to some random lady he go out with. You can see it in his eyes that how much he loves that memory/story because Mike was in it. He insists her to call his phone as he tells this memory because he wants to make sure his memories with Mike are still alive. Great acting and sharp writing.

Bernthal just nails every american accent like his chicagan is awesome and he doesn't overplay it

One of those roles that small, almost cameo but on the other hand he is like one the most important characters of this whole story.

this show’s about grieving and moving forward. in the very first episode richie is trying to tell everyone a story but it drags on same way that mikeys does in this clip. it kinda shows you how fucked up mikeys passing has been on them, richie trying to be like mikey sharing a story, carmen trying to elivate his dead brother’s restaurant and their sister trying to mend all the past relations with family because of mikeys behavior before his suicide. its all so real dude this show is amazing

I absolutely fell in love with this show. Me and my whole family, we all work in the restaurant business and we were all laughing and going “oh my god!” Hahaha

Was looking forward for this to be released. Thank you so much.

Can’t believe I waited so long to start the show. Love it!!!

This is amazing acting from everyone. This felt authentic and real.

This is an accurate portrayal of Ceres Cafe 15 years ago. Savard was there quite a few times- never saw Bill Murray. Details are uncanny, the history of Ceres was on the back of the menu Ceres is no longer open from breakfast but it gets crazy after work.

Best show on Hulu hands down and they used the best song to convey the perfect feeling

John Bernthal was also a key character in a film called Shot Caller. It's amazing how he inhabits a character. I know that sounds cliche, but it's true. He is not anyone else he played before, or who he will play in the future. He's that character. In Shot Caller, he is an inmate...through and through. It's really amazing what he does in the various characters that he plays.

Dude yes! And he was a key character in Wind River. Very brief scene but just his performance made us care about a character that was in one scene. Just like this scene in the bear

I just realized that Mikey started the dish and Carmen finished it. Very poetic representation of the series

Such an accurate scene. Cooking, Sundays, Family, etc, just shooting it, sharing stories, good times.

You can also see something here. Carmy is finishing what Mikey starts with the food. Such good writing and directing and juxtaposition of cousin taking up the personality of Mikey, he had such an impact on both of them.

This show moves so fast and you can miss so many little characterizations. Something about how Mikey once he says "Give me your phone" he looks towards Richie and chuckles because it's Richie's angle from that point on so it's the perfect time to transition to the present, giving Richie the mic per se so he can continue the story by talking about how Bill Murray became his voicemail.

I loved Richie’s character.. it feels so real…

gotta love a Punisher reunion

We’ve reached the John Berenthal dominance era of TV. Between we own this city and the bear. (Both widely considered the two, or two of the best shows of the year) Well deserved. Loved how much we don’t know about the bear and the past. They took every kitchen tv/movie cliche. Never leaned on any of them. Plus we get complex/evil Joel mchale on the back burner ready to tear apart carms world

He'll always be Shane in TWD & Frank Castle in The Punisher for me. Love to see he's doing so well.

The way the scene cuts to Richie alone is heartbreaking

"You already told this story!" "Mikey, why you lookin' for forks?"

Seeing them so happy was heartbreaking because it's just a glance of they relationship with him

amazing scene

A very true to life show. Great finale.

Glad to see Punisher and Microchip hanging out together

jon bernthal...WE NEED interviews of you about the bear. This scene was so huge

Richie is like a hype man with no one to hype :'(

I was a trader and logged plenty of hours in Ceres. What always blew my mind was the Ceres to go containers in the stalls in the members bathroom before the open.

I've heard that story a million times already!

The way he tells the story...how he moves and preps. He was sooo smooth and the way they shot how the food was being prepared. I had to go back a time or 2 cause I was just lost in the scene. I didn't hear the story.

I hope we see jon bernthal in more shows and movies. He is amazing!!

This shows show much about the dynamics of these characters, particularly how Carm always wanted to work with his brother, moving so quick to sprinkle Parmesan on the meal

A masterwork in writing and acting.

Omg I wanna watch so badly I’m glad this show became a hit☺️

Man, as the show progressed, you could just tell Mikey was a cool dude. When I watched this episode and saw John bernthal, ‘twas bittersweet as he is one of my favorite actors.

Franck and Micro in the kitchen, great!

Savard Chelios and Belfour is such an elite group of name drops.

I really appreciate the performance for the sister. She’s really good.

This is CHICAGO! Mikey NAILED IT!!
