It's some 30 years since ITV first broadcast Rowan Atkinson playing Mr Bean. It has his fellow contributors and longtime friends. I love Mr. Bean, the TV show. For me, he is a descendant of Charlie Chaplin's tramp. During the turkey scene, I would have thought they would mention the Friends copy. They could be nice and say it's an homage. Instead, they talk about it after they themselves repeated the joke in their own movie. I am glad that Row did say that you can't steal jokes.
It's always fun to revisit these gags. It's nice to explore and dissect these jokes. The TV episodes remain the best of Bean. I've always thought that the movies were mistakes. I'm sure the money is good. I just love the original TV show so much and the longer movie running time saps out the energy of the Bean gag. I've never seen the animated show. I don't think that I can. If Rowan is willing, I would love him to dye his hair and do some Christmas TV specials. Thirty minutes of fun. That's Bean perfection.
