I used to think 'The Bear' was just a stressful show about cooking

My friend in Chicago, who actually works in a kitchen, told me I was missing the point by focusing on the yelling and said to watch for the quiet moments of teamwork. I went back and binged season 2 again, paying attention to those scenes, and it completely changed my view of the characters. Anyone else have a show they totally misjudged until someone pointed something specific out?

Totally get that shift in perspective, @cole994. I had the same thing with "Severance" where I thought it was just a weird office drama until my sister pointed out all the subtle clues about the outside world. Once I looked for those details, the whole show opened up and felt way more tense and sad. What quiet moments stood out to you on your rewatch?
