Bear is so crazy about noodles that when he wakes up from his winter sleep he is already craving them! But his cave is bare, with no noodles to be found. His friends try to distract him with their own treats, but Bear decides it's time to set off to the big city to seek his fortune as a game-show contestant and a sure fill of his prized food. But what's the sense of becoming a big TV star (and having all the noodles he can eat) when there's nobody to share it with?
