The Bear season four review – finally becoming the show it was always destined to be
Recalibrate your palate: The Bear is not the show it used to be. The relentless drama you were stunned by in season two – when you finished an episode and said it was the best show you had ever seen, then played the next one and said it again – is not coming back. Season four starts with Uncle Jimmy (Oliver Platt), the family friend who has invested in the fledgling Chicago eaterie The Bear, installing a countdown clock that says the business has 1,440 hours to save itself. But much of the new run isn't even about the restaurant. The show is outgrowing its premise, leaving behind 'yes, chef!', lingering closeups of seared beef and screaming matches in the pantry in favour of a different intensity, one that draws even more deeply on the characters and how they fit together. Indulge it – and you will have to indulge it, in a few ways – and you will find this experience just as rich. The restaurant is reeling from negative press – the Chicago Tribune's reviewer reports understatedly that they observed 'dissonance' – but the show returns seeming almost arrogantly relaxed. The first two episodes potter, enjoying extended montages of folk cooking to the artfully curated sounds of the Who, Talk Talk, the Pretenders and, in a preparing-for-service sequence that goes on for longer than you think it would dare, a brilliantly deployed excerpt from Tangerine Dream's soundtrack for the 1981 movie Thief. Between courses, characters set out their self-improvement goals: Tina (Liza Colón-Zayas) wants to train herself to cook a pasta dish in under three minutes; Cousin Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) wishes the little speeches he gives the waiting staff were more inspiring; Ebraheim (Edwin Lee Gibson) would like to help pull the numbers out of the red by becoming a commercial visionary. Dealing with the big stuff as usual are the head chef, Carmy Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), and his faithful, frustrated assistant, Sydney (Ayo Edebiri). He wants to 'do better': communicate more, apologise more, explain more, shout less. She continues to wonder if she should jump ship to take a job at a flash new startup. A whole episode, co-written by Edebiri and Lionel Boyce (who plays Marcus), is given over to Syd visiting her cousin's house to have her hair done and discuss the dilemma with her cousin's young daughter. It's a lovely digression, but is it necessary? Well, yes. It may not feel like it during this year's slow start, just as it didn't during that apparently directionless third season, but Christopher Storer, the showrunner, knows what he is doing. More than ever, this is a show about family – the traumas they inflict on each other and the power they have to soothe them – and how families extend to friends and colleagues who can be just as beloved and just as maddening. That Richie is not actually Carmy's cousin and Uncle Jimmy is not anyone's uncle has always been an endearing quirk of the setup, but now it becomes essential and endlessly moving. Where once The Bear made pulses pound, now it lets the happy tears flow; the second half of the season is like one long therapy session. Syd isn't just deciding whether or not to take a job – she is deciding whether or not she is becoming a Berzatto. Once again, the centrepiece is a double-length episode dedicated to a family get-together. The whole gang is there, so that unbelievable extended cast – including Sarah Paulson, Bob Odenkirk and John Mulaney, plus new additions Josh Hartnett and a hilarious Brie Larson – is reunited, this time for the wedding of Richie's ex-wife, Tiff (Gillian Jacobs). With the unstable Berzatto matriarch, Donna (Jamie Lee Curtis), in attendance, passive-aggressively transferring her anxieties to whoever she is speaking to, the potential is there for another psychodrama along the lines of that sublime but gruelling Christmas flashback from a couple of seasons ago. But having put his creations and his audience through hell, Storer now lets the light in via a torrent of tenderly written, fiercely performed interactions where broken people who love each other start to heal, saying variations on those two beautiful phrases, 'sorry' and 'thank you'. Payoffs big and small ping in every scene as narrative seeds carefully sown – including in that bad third season! – burst into bloom and these people we have come to adore are rewarded. Not that it's ever easy: if the wedding episode is a classic, so is the painfully fraught, stunningly acted finale, where we don't know whether the most troubled of our cousins will find the courage to open up. Storer has shown a lot of courage in giving them the chance. This new Bear is doing much better. The Bear is on Disney+ in the UK and Australia and on Hulu in the US

The Outer Worlds 2, the most expensive Xbox game yet
The Outer Worlds 2, from RPG makers Obsidian, will be the first first-party Xbox game to cost $80 (£70). Given that Nintendo Switch 2 games are already priced at least that high, and Sony's own PlayStation 5 games have been pushing towards it for a while, you might not expect this development to ignite a pricing debate among gamers – but it did. The increased cost of video games is a hotly contested topic, given the unsustainably ballooning budgets that most blockbuster games are working with these days. But I can say that The Outer Worlds 2 is a much larger, more in-depth game than the 2019 comedy sci-fi original. If we're going to talk about value, it can certainly be argued that its higher price point is justified. I loved The Outer Worlds, which was jam-packed with the kind of wry, sardonic humour you'd expect from an Obsidian RPG (this is the studio behind Fallout: New Vegas, after all). Its super-saturated space world, populated by colourful flora, bumbling corporations and strange zealots, was a joy to live in for 20 or so hours, though its combat left much to be desired. According to game director Brandon Adler, Obsidian knew The Outer Worlds' gunplay needed improvement even before the game launched, and especially if they developed a sequel. 'We did a full breakdown on Destiny, because we love how that felt,' he says during an interview held after an Outer Worlds 2 demo in Los Angeles. 'We also talked to the Halo folks … They gave us a huge list of stuff and said, 'You guys should target this … you should add that to your weapon configurations.'' Obsidian's research has paid off: not only are there more weapons to play with in The Outer Worlds 2, but they all feel good to fire, and offer a variety of combat options depending upon the encounter (and that's if you want to fight, as a solid stealth approach will let you creep through rooms of foes without a trace). In the original game, I'd simply avoid large-scale combat, or preemptively sigh before getting into a firefight because the gunplay just wasn't enjoyable. That has changed in the sequel – I relished each encounter, giggling manically as I hucked grenades and dropped down from above to take out a target. 'We didn't want small changes. Every weapon feels very different; every weapon has a cool, unique purpose,' Adler says. 'You can even take those weapons and add mods on to them to do all kinds of crazy things.' Sign up to Pushing Buttons Keza MacDonald's weekly look at the world of gaming after newsletter promotion And with an updated game engine (Unreal Engine 5) and the capabilities of current-gen hardware (The Outer Worlds released on the Xbox One), expect The Outer Worlds 2 to feel bigger than before. Entering buildings no longer requires a loading screen that can take players out of the fantasy, for instance. 'Little things like that give a big, immense feel,' Adler says. 'Exploration is probably the thing that's most important to me. I want the players as they're going through this big world to feel like they should go to every nook and cranny and open every door and go behind every little thing, because it's always gonna be a cool, fun thing for them to find.' The Outer Worlds 2 offers a larger world, improved combat and even more customisation options that deepen its role-playing features (such as more perks and flaws for your character, which can drastically change how you play). Though Adler declines to comment on the $80 price tag, it's clear that this sequel justifies itself. The Outer Worlds 2 is released on 29 October for Xbox, PlayStation 5 and PC.

Travis Kelce settles age-old debate as he finally names his favorite Taylor Swift song of all-time
Stand down Swifties, Travis Kelce has finally named his all-time favorite Taylor Swift song... and the answer may come as something of a surprise. For many months, fans of the pop superstar have wondered which song her NFL star boyfriend holds in highest regard. At Eras Tour shows around the world, Kelce has belted out all the classics, and has also presumably heard many secret songs behind the scenes living with Swift herself. After her surprise performance in Nashville earlier this week, Swift's music is back in the headlines once again, and Kelce has been quizzed on his favorite song of hers. In an interview with Bussin with the Boys host Will Compton, Kelce took a second and then revealed a surprise selection: So High School. It has been widely claimed in the past that some of the lyrics in the song reference Kelce and their relationship, particularly the line: 'You know how to ball, I know Aristotle'. Travis Kelce reveals that 'So High School' is his favorite Taylor Swift song: 'I guess So High School☺️… I'm nervous. You're making me nervous.' — Taylor Swift Updates (@TSUpdating) June 26, 2025 Another part of the song sees Swift sing 'are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me', which fans claim is a reference to a viral interview in which Kelce was asked to choose between Swift, Ariana Grande and Katy Perry. Some Swift fans would perhaps have expected Kelce to choose 'Karma' as his favorite song, given the pop superstar regularly changed the lyrics to reference Kelce and her 'guy on the Chiefs' during her sold-out Eras Tour show. On Thursday, meanwhile, NFL star George Kittle lifted the lid on Swift's shock performance at a concert hosted by Kelce in Nashville on Tuesday night. The singer sent the crowd wild with a rendition of Shake It Off as she joined Kane Brown at 'Tight Ends and Friends', much to the surprise of those in attendance. Now, Kittle has opened up on Swift's cameo and revealed that she was unsure over which song to perform before being reassured by Kelce's pals. Speaking to Fox News Digital, Kittle explained: 'She was fantastic. For the venue that, I think, it was maybe 1,000 people, that was the loudest 1,000 people I've ever heard in my entire life. It was an incredible experience. 'Taylor could not have been kinder, more nice, and she was like, "I think it might be fun to go sing 'Shake It Off.'" And we were like, "It'd be amazing. Twist my arm, Taylor, please".'
