I've never seen Kims Convenience or Ugly Betty, but I know what you mean. I think Seinfeld and The Sopranos handled it pretty well too.

As far as The Bear goes, I thought all the season three episodes were done exceptionally well. I don't mind character-driven stories when they're done with originality and shun the trite and cliche. The Bear is exceptionally written and produced IMO.
