coolgod I don't recommend it but if you don't believe me then go to england & find out for your self - they're all like this. As i say if you happen to be a human & not a BEEn then you will of found your self in a particularly sad place, even for this worlds generally dismal standards its bad..., but i think people only end up there if they are forceably taken there as a child - no adult with any basic common sense would go there because every time you see a English person on TV they'r always the most horrible C.unt you've ever seen in the world by a million miles (e.g. Ricky Gervais, James Corden, Russell Brand, Simon Cowell etc etc) - there isn't any other group of Count's from any other Countrys to compare them to! Mr been is just an English person.
studioAT Loved and hated both here and in the UK in equal measure there can be no doubting that Rowan Atkinson's oddball creation has become part of culture.There are some brilliant moments of comedy in these episodes, where even the most simple of situations can lead to ridiculous outcomes.It's simple humour, but it's humour that will continue to entertain for many generations to come because it's often non verbal. We predict what Bean is going to do before he does it.I know he's a love/ hate character, but I for one really enjoy the antics of Mr Bean.
Igor Engelsberger Why do people consider this funny? This kind of slapstick "humour" (idiocy rather) is painful to watch and I can not see how anyone with a working brain could find this funny. How is this series thrown in the same bag with true classics like Fawlty Towers, 'Allo 'Allo, You rang m'lord and Blackadder (a true showcase of Atkinsons genius), which are not only head and shoulders above this atrocity, but in an entirely different universe when it comes to actually being funny. Mr. Bean is not British humour, it's American slapstick of the worst kind. The fact that it got a spin off cartoon AND a movie, speaks volumes how brain-dead the people that watch this, actually are.Do yourself a favor, don't watch this, you'll be better off.
RaspberryLucozade 'Mr. Bean' has secured itself a loyal fan base all over the world, spawning not only two film spin-offs but a cartoon series as well. If it makes people happy, that's fine by me but personally I do not like the show at all. It is childish and banal to the point that whenever I try to tune in, I feel my concentration wandering after about two minutes. I find it a great chore to sit through.Rowan Atkinson plays the title character, a man who never speaks coherently, cannot touch anything without breaking it and whose habits and ways set him some distance from normality. Whilst I liked Atkinson in shows such as 'Not The Nine O'Clock News', 'Blackadder' and 'The Thin Blue Line', I don't feel he is terribly good at working without dialogue. He just comes across as gormless and emotionless. It is like watching someone who is mentally retarded.One of my biggest bugbears about the show is the fact that people label it as silent comedy. Bean is the only one who doesn't talk, everyone else, however, does, unlike in the later and far superior series 'The Baldy Man' ( which starred Gregor Fisher ), where no dialogue was used at all. The latter, incidentally, was slated by the critics who claimed that it was nothing but a cheap rip-off of 'Mr. Bean'. Whilst it is true that the series of 'The Baldy Man' came after 'Mr. Bean', it must be noted that the character of Baldy was created on 'Naked Video' in 1986, a good four years before this show started. Also, in 'The Baldy Man', Baldy only reacted to situations, 'Mr. Bean' however was responsible for them, so oft-repeated comparisons between the two shows are largely unfair.I would be lying if I were to deny the show's popularity but I just could not take to the show at all. If you ever manage to come across 'The Baldy Man', tune into that instead. Trust me, it is funnier by miles.
