Just had a convo with a buddy about The Bear and it hit different
My friend said he couldn't binge it because every episode made him anxious with all the yelling and chaos. That got me thinking about how I just powered through season 2 without noticing how stressed I was. Has anyone else had a show hit them way harder after someone pointed out a vibe you missed?

Man that's exactly what happened to me with Succession. I was just watching it thinking it was a family drama until someone pointed out how every scene is basically a power struggle and then I couldn't unsee it. It's wild how a show can hit you completely different once someone else names the thing you were feeling the whole time.

That thing you said about someone naming what you were feeling, that's exactly it. I read somewhere that good shows work on you without you even realizing it, and it takes someone else pointing it out for it to click.
