Hulu lists it as a Comedy but I agree with you... not a comedy. Occasional funny scenes but many episodes are quite stressful and heavy. Never understood why it was listed as a comedy.
I may have laughed a few times to release some stress? Really seems mislabeled. But phenomenal show and Season 2 was insanely good. "Funny" just isn't one of the first 10-20 words that come to mind.
errbuddy in the comments like "it's not a comedy" but me, my partner and my housemate have a combine 40+ years restaurant experience and nearly 100 years experience being abused by narcissists and we think the show is funny as hell.

I thought the genre was “a big ball of stress”

Holy shit! I am glad to see so many of you say this show isn’t a comedy. I thought I’d had a stroke or something.
I saw about half of season one and couldn’t get into it. I think it’s a good show, but not for me.

well at least now we know what it takes to find The Bear funny.

This truly is a show for restaurant workers.

If they'd nominated the show as a Drama it would have lost everything to Succession.
