Loved The Bear, a show spanning a combination of topics from the inner workings of a restaurant to gentrification and personal traumas?

We've got a bunch of shows that also share a similar vibe: they have the music, the food, the drama, and the Chicago landscape prominently featured.

Chicago is a huge city that was quite often used as a background for lots of popular movies and TV shows throughout the history of cinema and television.

It's not on the coast, and its location makes for a wonderfully gritty palette for these shows. And the best way to get acquainted with it and solidify your opinion on the acting abilities of Jeremy Allen White is to jump straight into Shameless where he played Philip Gallagher for 11 years before he became Carmy in The Bear.

If you want to dive deeper into the history of cooking shows, look no further than Julia — yes, it's not about Chicago, but it's about food. And those who have an audiophile bone should check High Fidelity — a TV adaptation of a book that already received a movie adaptation nearly 20 years earlier that changed things and made them much more relatable to modern audiences.
