![]() I do like more of a storyline in the series I watch, but I still had fun seeing this character in ridiculous situations and executing the most outlandish solutions to them. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the edgy comedy geared for adults, but it was refreshing to see a series so funny without needing much raunchy stuff. Outside of a few suggestive moments that might be too much for young kids, I think this is a rare comedy series designed to entertain essentially all age groups. ![]() Rowan Atkinson portrays this iconic character so well and showcases how effective physical comedy can be when it is done right. This is a show that is simple and funny all the way through. I decided to watch the original series all the way through since it is not a long watch. ![]() Bean" growing up as well as the movie "Mr. It is hilarious and original, like a comedy series should be, if anything though I think it should have lasted longer. Overall, a complete delight of a comedy series. The guest appearances are also excellent, but it is Atkinson's show all the way. His facial expressions and the situations his character gets into are simply priceless. Rowan Atkinson is perfect at conveying these character qualities I thought he was brilliant in Black Adder, but he was just amazing in this. Mr Bean is naive, self-centred and clueless, he can't do anything right, but we love him anyway. Other than the gags and slapstick, it is Mr Bean himself who makes the series. The photography, scenery and costumes are great to look at, and the music is delightful. The story ideas are really interesting and are always constructed really well. That is not a bad thing whatsoever, because it actually works wonders. Mr Bean does have minimal dialogue so a lot of the humour comes from the visual gags and slapstick. I do agree there may be the occasional gag that doesn't quite work, but an overwhelming majority of them work brilliantly. Okay, Mr Bean mayn't be the most sophisticated comedy series ever, and it sure is one of the funniest.
