But, the biggest win for the series by far is Ayo Edebiri’s nomination for Outstanding Support Actress, which makes sense as, along with Allen-White, Edebiri is the true heart of the show.
The other two cast nominations went to Jon Bernthal and Oliver Platt for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series, as they played Carmy’s brother and uncle, respectively.
The Bear was also nominated as a whole for Outstanding Comedy Series, which is absolutely deserved as both Season 1 and 2 have cemented the show has a classic must-watch.
