SitcomsOnline Digest: A Look at Season 3 of The Bear; The Munsters Headed Toward a Reboot, Again

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! It's Memorial Day weekend and one of the most unusual (and sort of disappointing, due to the lack of new content) TV seasons ever is coming to an end. Nonetheless, we're hear with news about a new season of an FX favorite, a reboot of a Showtime series, and a reboot of The Munsters... again? Let's get going!
