Just finished season 2 and man that show stresses me out so much. I feel like I need to go to therapy after every episode but I can't stop watching. The kitchen scenes are insane. My wife thinks I'm crazy for wanting to watch it as a way to relax after the kids are in bed but it's weirdly my guilty pleasure right now.
The Bear is incredible but yeah, that kitchen chaos hits different when you're already stressed about getting kids ready for school. I found myself watching it after bedtime just to decompress, which defeats the purpose. Maybe try something lighter before bed?
Same here man. That show is brilliantly done but I can't watch it without getting anxious about deadlines and pressure. As a dad my tolerance for chaos has gone up but that show still gets to me. Season 2 was intense.

Haha yeah that show makes me appreciate my chill life. The fast paced restaurant stress is nothing compared to parenting but watching it is exhausting. Takes me right back to my old job days.
