I think if you were a fan of Mr. Bean you would likely enjoy Man vs Bee.
You assume i dont like Mr.Bean?
Offtopic Sellers/Atkinson
I really like Peter Sellers as Clouseau, he is brilliant most of the time, there are scenes i do not get tired of watching for over 40 years now... no-one ever got close to copying him like that, just thinking about it makes me chuckle :D
... i think there were some other roles i liked
Atkinson has some great moments, also in Mr.Bean - but he does quantity, so you watch 10min with 30 jokes to experience the 1min with the 1-3 good jokes - so it is a bit tiresome, but Atkinson has one of the best dry/slapstick humor since Laurel & Hardy :D ... so i like him, but you really have to search hard for all his iconic moments
No. I just thought that Mr. Bean and Man vs Bee were kind OS similar in style.

Rowan Atkinson reminds me a lot of Peter Sellers. I despised his Clouseau character, but I thought that everything else he did was brilliant. Similarly, I hate Mr. Bean, but love Atkinson's other stuff. I think if you were a fan of Mr. Bean you would likely enjoy Man vs Bee.

Really REALLY like nonsense and British humor and weird humor and dry/deadpan humor - nothing helped here, dropped it
... mostly more annoying than funny, besides some really good rare seconds

I'm old, I can remember when Rowan Atkinson was actually funny.
Not the Nine O'Clock News, The Secret Policeman's Ball and the fantastic Blackadder.
I loved Black Adder, it was pretty much a downhill run for him since then imo.

Some of the bits fell flat but the brilliant bits made up for it. Especially the times he double-crosses the bee

I thought some of it was funny, but I'm no Mr Bean fan, and I felt it slipped into that sometimes.
Glad the episodes were very short, any longer and I would have switched off.

Has anyone else noticed that Ring-Tailed Lemurs look like Rowan Atkinson?
I'm looking foward to this. Thanks for turning me onto it!
Can't say that I have. :D :D
