Plot
We Bare Bears follows three adoptive bear brothers: Grizzly, Panda and Ice Bear. The bears attempt to integrate with human society, such as by purchasing food, making human companions or trying to become famous on the Internet, although these attempts see the bears struggle to do so due to the civilized nature of humans and their own animal instincts. However, in the end, they figure out that they have each other for support. One notable aspect of the show's humor is the bears' ability to form a "bear stack". As its name shows, the bears stack on top of each other, which serves as their unique way of transportation. Occasionally, the bears share adventures with their friends, such as child prodigy Chloe, bigfoot Charlie, internet sensation Nom Nom, park ranger Tabes, and produce saleswoman Lucy.
Occasionally, there are flashback episodes which chronicle the adventures of the bears as cubs trying to find a home. So far the only cub episodes of the series are "The Road", "Pet Shop", "The Island", "Baby Bears on a Plane", "$100", "The Fair", "Bunnies", and "Lazer Royale". There have been three episodes centered on one bear, "Burrito" (Grizzly), "Yuri and the Bear" (Ice Bear), and "Panda 2" (Panda).

Production
The show was created by cartoonist Daniel Chong, who had previously worked as a story artist for Pixar and Illumination Entertainment. The show is based on his webcomic The Three Bare Bears, which also features the identifying characters. This webcomic was uploaded online from 2010 to 2011. Billed as a comedy, the show is a production of Cartoon Network Studios, which developed the program with Chong as part of their shorts development program. It was announced during the network's 2014 upfront.
Nom Nom and Charlie were initially voiced by Ken Jeong and Tom Arnold, respectively, before getting recast sometime before airing. The show's visual simplistic look was inspired by classic hand-drawn animation akin to Peanuts and The Many Adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh.
