I love him but it’s true

So I’ve seen a lot of speculation that Carmy is going to die at the end of The Bear and tbh, I kinda hate that theory. I get that it may seem plausible with Carmy’s current character arc but I feel like it would be redundant with Mikey’s death (and possibly Marcus’ mother dying). It would also diminish one of The Bears biggest underlying themes, hope. The idea that there is life after death and that you can find happiness and love after everything you’ve been through. Mikey dying, Carmy escaping the confines of fine dining and returning home to run The Beef, to finding his very own found family, to meeting Sydney, to opening The Bear, and to hopefully embark on a healing journey, all of that would mean nothing if Carmy died in the end. Mikey didn’t hide all of that money in all of those tomato cans and leave The Beef to Carmy only for him to end up with the same fate as his big brother. Carmy’s death would do nothing more than rob Natalie of another brother, take away the love of Syd’s life, destroy Richie all over again and leave The Bear with a very void and sad finale. Not every story has to end in tragedy and death, sometimes there can be happy endings too.

Watching The Bear sweep award shows like a proud mother

Just saw The Iron Claw and I’m not okay.

Started rewatching the bear for like the third time and my hyperfixation has reawakened

Carmy berzatto is such a wonderfully written character, who is so beautifully complex in many ways and is portrayed so perfectly by JAW but every time he comes on screen the first damn thing that comes to my mind is “why is he so fucking t i n y ??”
