Why ‘The Bear’ and ‘Shogun’ Should Be Top Contenders for Writing Emmys
"The Bear" and "Shogun" have the two best writing episodes of the year for Emmys consideration.
Jeremy Allen White, revered as the aspiring restaurant owner Carmy, and his beloved supporting players Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Oliver Platt and Abby Elliott have received their fair share of praise for their performances in the series and in this episode. Playing Donna’s son Mike, the ghostly and tragic motivation behind the entire series, Jon Bernthal hangs on by a thread, making even the holding of a fork feel enduring. By the time the credits roll, we not only understand the goals of Lord Yoshii Toranaga (Hiroyuki Sanada) and his translator Lady Mariko (Anna Sawai), but also Marks and Kondo have planted the seeds for these characters to join Blackthorne as true co-protagonists of the story.
