I’m watching The Bear for the first time. Just through Season 1. It’s fascinating to me how much their kitchen feels like a startup environment. One of the things I think they are best at showing in this regard is the importance of “forgiveness” within intense collaborative actions — how in order to let people move fast and make decisions, you must have a culture of forgiving mistakes, even when the effects are very bad and painful. (Also, @fredwilson.eth if you have not seen this you should check it out just for the brilliant way they use Wilco. There are a few episodes at the end of the first season where it feels like the show is being built around the Wilco song as much as the reverse. Impossible Germany and Kidsmoke are the ones I’m thinking of most)

I had the same thought after reading Unreasonable Hospitality, which is about the history and rise of Eleven Madison Park from an underperforming high-class NYC restaurant to #1 in the world. The book is all about how they combined creativity with relentless iteration and focus on hospitality, all while dealing with the intense pressure of aiming at perfection and the financial challenges of the 2008 crisis. You might like it.

A meta thing is that because the show was a "startup environment" the now iconic way they shoot it was because of budget constraints. Startup all the way down.

They use space really well too. All the closeup shots create a lot of tension. It makes you forget most of the show is filmed in either a kitchen or a walk-in freezer lol.

Agree, it feels 100% like a start up environment. It's also made reflect on the importance of delegation. Seems like everyone needs Carmen's approval to move forward, when he should only be focusing on cooking. For me, this is important to keep in mind in a start-up enviroment, specially when you're starting to grow.

In Season 2, this perspective becomes even clearer. Since they have started the restaurant but are still struggling to make money, find their rhythm, pivot? Great thoughts

It is definitely one of the better made tv shows of the recent years. I have seen so many shows that could actually have been way better in the form of a really good long movie. But this, no, they can keep entertaining.
