Three DVD set contains all 14 episodes from the Mr. Bean television
series. You may have even seen some of the episodes on A&E. If you
saw the Mr. Bean movie and not the original television shows, I would
consider that a crying shame. The movie was not an adequate
representation of Rowan Atkinson's comedic abilities. In fact, it
would be a poor substitute for the work displayed in the television
series. I say this without hesitation or reservation: Rowan Atkinson
is a comedic genius. Most of his comedy is physical and he most often
does an entire scene without saying so much as a single word. Yet he
is fully capable of generating more than his fair share of laughs.
The scenarios he and the other writers dream up are not only funny but
completely original. I can honestly say that I have never scene
anything like it. Along with the original 14 episodes, this set also
includes never-before-seen-on-TV sketches, a 40 minute documentary
and a Rowan Atkinson Biography. |
