our take
“Bear's warmth and the show's thematic structure have real strengths, and the puppetry is charming. It falls just below the passing line because the direct-to-camera address format, musical transitions, and multi-segment structure create more pacing disruption than our rubric rewards. The show also breaks the fourth wall constantly, which we find works against the kind of immersive, sustained attention we value most.”
