The Bear has just dropped 10 all-new episodes, in what’s thought to be the penultimate series of the show – here’s details of how many seasons there are.
Across just two seasons, The Bear has established itself as one of the most beloved and acclaimed shows on television.
The tale of a struggling sandwich joint that morphs into the story of a fine-dining restaurant has won multiple Emmys and Golden Globes, with several for the amazing Bear cast.
The show has also made household names of those stars, most notably Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edibiri, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. The success that might be contributing to The Bear ending in the near future…

Will there be The Bear Season 4?
Yes, there will be a Season 4 of The Bear, which is also rumored to be the final series of the show.
A report on Deadline in March suggested that Seasons 3 and 4 were being shot concurrently, largely due to demand for the show’s stars. The article says: “As to why Seasons 3 and 4 are filmed back to back, accommodating talent schedules is one explanation as Emmy winners Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri are said to be getting a ton of feature opportunities.”
White received acclaim for his work in The Iron Claw, while he’s about to play Bruce Springsteen in Deliver Me From Nowhere. Edebiri is about to shoot Luca Guadagnino’s new movie, and their co-star Moss-Bachrach is playing Ben Grimm/The Thing in Marvel’s latest stab at The Fantastic Four.
That said, Deadline also states that “a Season 5 of The Bear remains a possibility.”
Season 3 of The Bear is currently available on FX, Hulu, or Disney+ depending on your location. For answers to The Bear questions, here’s how Mikey dies and the meaning behind ‘keep the spoons,’ while the French Laundry is explained here.
