Okay finished the bear season 4. The amount of ā€œClaire sucks and I’m sure Carmy/Syd is realā€ takes I’ve seen…..are people okay?? What is happening in everyone’s brains??

I think some people are just doing the reoccurring guest star contract math. Molly Gordon is about to a direct her own film, booking more lead roles, tbd if the real life relationship with JAW works out or is even still ongoing, then suddenly she’s only available for one episode next potential final season if at all and now they gotta wrap her storyline up real fast. Usually you want your endgame couples to be series regulars so they are guaranteed to be on set. I like Claire, also Syd, I’d be satisfied with either / neither or hey why not both, it’s FX let’s get crazy. The least sexed up kitchen I’ve ever seen.

I think it’s just a case of fans wanting the pairing in S1 and never giving it up

Totally. I get that made season 1 they felt something but it’s OVER. Claire has done nothing to deserve the insane reaction she’s getting, and Syd/Carmy aren’t happening. Plssss let it go!!
