StametsI've got 20 euros for you, Czech boy
But_my_mom_says_im_coolAnyone else sick of these rich people shows about rich people restaurants? I would rather see a show about a lower middle class guy who works in a shitty diner. I don’t understand the appeal of all the rich people tv shows
CorkyskogWhy would I? It looked just like the type of show im trying to avoid
Have…have you watched The Bear?
Don’t get me wrong, the Berzatto family had money, and some of their relations do. But…most of the characters are not wealthy, and the restaurant started as a local sandwich joint.
It’s a really good show, I recommend it. It’s like Ted Lasso but dark and depressing.
The Faks are the best part of the show.
Haunting should be the way we resolve our differences.
I’ve heard there’s a lot of fancy cooking flashbacks
Sure. And eventually, fancy cooking in the present. Still, humble beginnings for the restaurant. And humble existence for the characters: restaurant margins are very slim.
So no. You haven’t watched, just another bad faith asshole I’m seeing on here lately. Did Project 25 just learn about Lemmy? What the fuck.
tetris11Drove me insane with my ex her choice of TV shows. It was always a bunch of rich people having rich people problems, that were only somewhat tangentially relatable to regular people.
Gilmore Girls, Ginny and Georgia, huge peeves of mine. No one lives that life except a very very select few, and here they are on camera trying to make us pity them
My wife watches This is us, Us, and these other shows where everyone is always made up, wearing designer clothing. Everyone lives in a big house that is always clean, the neighborhood is picturesque.
that show master of none annoyed me because even the dumb fat sidekick character was always dressed in expensive current fashion and all they did was rich people shit and complaining
FenrirIIILove me some belchers
mfed1122I’m not sure that The Bear really fits what you’re complaining about here, but I love the complaint and agree with it in general, so upvoted your comment anyways. So much fiction nowadays is about rich people and “nepo babies”, And life scenarios that are generally completely unattainable for most people. As if it wasn’t already obvious enough that the majority of mass market fiction is created as some sort of escapist opioid for the peasants. The worst is the new “eat the rich” genre, that pretends to be criticizing, capitalism and wealth while simultaneously drooling over it the whole time.
The only clips I’ve seen from the bear have a lot of fancy restaurant kitchen stuff
It’s actually about his struggle having a successful restaurant despite not having money, amongst other thing’s
Yeah that’s a fair point, it does have some of that wealth ogling going on. Although in that show since none of the characters are really that rich, it feels more like they’re in the shadow of wealth rather than partaking in it. I give that a pass because, how could you tell a realistic modern story without having people in the shadow of wealth?
I would enjoy a show about restaurants that serve rich people…
BlackmistThe bear is literally about a guy spurred to reconnect with his family and working class roots by the death of his brother after he has been made mentally sick by the demands of working for the rich and elite in the service industry.
Half the show is flashbacks to the fancy restaurants
I always heard you Aussie guys were nice dudes but I guess you like to throw insults and negativity like an American
It’s true, it’s a stereotype. In reality you’re a bunch of colonizers and racists too
