FX Renews The Bear for Season 3; Hulu's Australian Original Series Premieres November 29

FX's Hulu exclusive The Bear, the critically acclaimed, award-winning hit series, has been renewed for a third season. The first two seasons of The Bear are currently exclusively available to stream on Hulu. Season three will be available on Hulu in the U.S., Star+ in Latin America and Disney+ in all other territories. Season two followed Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri) and Richard "Richie" Jerimovich (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they worked to transform their grimy sandwich joint into a next-level spot. As they stripped the restaurant down to its bones, the crew undertook transformational journeys of their own, each forced to confront the past and reckon with who they want to be in the future.
Of course, it turned out the only thing harder than running a restaurant was opening a new one, and the team had to juggle the insane bureaucracy of permits and contractors with the beauty and creative agony of menu planning. The transition brought a newfound focus on hospitality as well. As the entire staff was forced to come together in new ways, pushing the boundaries of their abilities and relationships, they also learned what it means to be in service, both to diners and each other.
Hulu has revealed the official trailer for the upcoming Australian Original series The Artful Dodger exploring the adult double life of Charles Dicken's famous prince of thieves, aka The Artful Dodger. All eight episodes of season one, starring Thomas Brodie-Sangster, David Thewlis and Maia Mitchell, premiere on Hulu Wednesday, November 29. The series explores the adult double life of Charles Dickens' famous prince of thieves, Jack Dawkins aka The Artful Dodger, whose fast pickpocketing fingers have turned into the skilled hands of a surgeon. Set in 1850s Australia, in the lively colony of Port Victory, Dodger's past returns to haunt him with the arrival of Fagin, luring him back into a world of crime. A greater threat - to Dodger's heart - is Lady Belle, the Governor’s daughter, determined to become the colony's first female surgeon. From heists to life-and-death surgeries to the harsh realities of the criminal world mingling with the middle ground and gentry, this is a tale of reinvention, betrayal, redemption, and love with a twist.
