Carmy and company are back in the first trailer for “The Bear” Season 3. (Apparently he didn’t freeze to death in that freezer!)
As the prodigy chef, played by Jeremy Allen White, opens the new restaurant alongside Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) and Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), they find themselves once again sparring. In one scene, Carmy yells, “No surprise!” after Richie brings a piñata into the kitchen. Richie responds: “Yes, surprise!”
In a shorter teaser released five days earlier, Sydney tells Carmy and Richie: “This is a dysfunctional kitchen!,” to which they respond in unison: “Show me a functional one!”
All episodes of award-winning FX dramedy are set to release on June 27 and will be available to stream on Hulu in the U.S. (and Disney+ internationally).
Season 2 of “The Bear” saw Carmy (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) and Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) work together to transform their sandwich shop into a fine dining restaurant.

[Warning: The following story contains spoilers about Season 2 of “The Bear.” Read at your own risk.]
Two years ago, “Ted Lasso” premiered its second season on July 23, just 10 days after Emmy nominations were announced. It was a strategic move, of course, to keep the Apple TV+ hit top of mind for voters as Phase 2 voting approached in August. Among the show’s 20 nominations for its breakout first season were four in Best Comedy Supporting Actor, and because of that, “Ted” was not predicted to win the award at the time. “Saturday Night Live” duo Kenan Thompson and Bowen Yang occupied the top two spots in the odds until two days before the ceremony, when “Ted” star and writer Brett Goldstein surged to first place and then walked away with the trophy. Goldstein had a secret weapon in hand: a stellar Season 2 for his character, Roy Kent, that voters surely could not ignore even though they were technically voting for...

[Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for “The Bear” Season 2, Episode 7, “Forks.“]
Sometimes, it’s hard just to wake up. Some of the best moments in “The Bear” (particularly in Season 2) do such an effective job of detailing all the steps that even get you to the crucible. A key part of the prologue in Episode 7 “Forks” is watching the city wake up along with Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). Some creative pursuits (especially ones as part of a team) are all-day endeavors.
That tracks with what “The Bear” is at its heart: a seasons-long food metaphor for the very show you’re watching. It’s no coincidence that the series and the restaurant share a name. Everyone involved is working together in a kitchen, but nearly every detail has its TV storytelling analogue.

It is both obvious and radical to say that auditions are work. Actors are even supposed to be paid for them. SAG-AFTRA’s contract with the studios states that we’re entitled to half our scale day rate for every audition we perform but don’t book for a TV show, studio feature or high-budget indie. Since our day rate is $1,082, that’s $541.

How can a legal right feel so risky to talk about, even for people who agree that this payment is fair? When I first learned about audition pay last fall, from a video by Sarah Ramos, an emergency response team of arguments rushed through my head: Auditions are job interviews. Casting directors will hate it. Producers can’t afford it. I’m just lucky to be following my dreams. That is, I viewed it from several perspectives except for that of a unionized laborer. I...

Though Magic Johnson was the flashy new addition to this Lakers roster, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the face of the team. He was perhaps the greatest college basketball player ever, was the first overall pick in the draft a decade before Magic, had already won an NBA title in Milwaukee, and had been in Los Angeles since 1975.

“The Shield” alum Michael Chiklis is playing legendary NBA Boston Celtics coach-turned-general manager Red Auerbach in HBO’s new series “Winning Time: The Rise of The Lakers Dynasty,” and TheWrap has an exclusive look at the actor in character.
In the new pic, Chiklis, as Auerbach, is seated at a table during what looks like the NBA draft.
“Red Auerbach was one of a kind,” Chiklis said in a statement to TheWrap. “A larger than life character and competitor. In a word…iconic. What a blast to slip into his jacket for a while as an actor and a guy from the Boston area.”
Here’s a description of Chiklis’ character, per HBO: As the coach of the Celtics, Red Auerbach won nine NBA championships. As general manager, he won seven more. When the Lakers’ rise threatens his Boston dynasty, Auerbach proves himself to be the basketball genius and cut-throat...

The Showtime Lakers will take center stage in HBO’s upcoming series Winning Time: The Rise of The Lakers Dynasty, but that’s the extent of their involvement. During the series’ Ctam session on Tuesday series co-creator Max Borenstein addressed reports about the lack of cooperation from the Lakers themselves and the Buss family.
“We made this show as fans with a tremendous amount of respect and love for all these characters of the NBA and Lakers and I think it hopefully shows on screen. I can only imagine how strange it must be to have a movie made about your life, or show made about any aspect fo your life so I never presume what people will or won’t do but on our end this was made with great love and appreciation.”

The story of the “Showtime” Lakers is coming to HBO in “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty” this March, documenting a period for the team that helped set the tone for how sports and athletes are viewed today.
“We were trying to have fun above all, but it’s a show about showmanship,” co-creator, executive producer and showrunner Max Borenstein said on Tuesday during a virtual Television Critics Association Winter Tour panel for his upcoming HBO show. “This is the moment where sports became entertainment.”
To bring “the audience into that journey,” as Borenstein said, the show finds the actors — like John C. Reilly, who plays Jerry Buss — talking to camera. And it incorporates some retro production features built in.

The untitled HBO series about the Los Angeles Lakers has added five to its cast, with Bo Burnham also exiting the series.
It was reported in March that Burnham had been cast in the role of Celtics legend Larry Bird. According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Burnham is no longer involved with the project due to scheduling conflicts.
Sean Patrick Small will instead play Bird. Bird is described as a basketball star who hates the spotlight; preferring instead: Budweiser, ratty jeans, and brutally, ruthlessly destroying his opponents on the court.
