Rowan Atkinson presents Mr. Bean the Animated Series volume 1 & 2—It's Not Easy Being Bean, Bean There Done That—the role he was drawn to play—DVD—A&E

Editorial Review of Mr. Bean The Animated Series, Vols. 1 & 2 (It’s Not Easy Being Bean / Bean There Done That) (2003) courtesy of Amazon.com

Rowan Atkinson‘s man-child adapts perfectly to an animated format in this collection’s 18 episodes. For the most part, the scripts--written or edited by Robin Driscoll, one of the longtime creators of all things Bean--are indistinguishable from the live-action series. In “In the Wild,” the fussy, grunting hero goes on a photo safari in Britain’s wilds, only to cause havoc among fellow bird-watchers. “Missing Teddy” continues the animal theme with an instant-classic sequence in which Bean clears a busy veterinarian’s waiting room by inadvertently healing some ailing pets. “Roadworks” finds a sleepy Bean at war with a noisy construction crew, and “Nurse” reveals his standing fantasy of being treated like royalty while in hospital. Good stuff both for Bean fanatics and children who never saw the real Atkinson’s head stuck in a turkey. The star isn’t entirely out of the picture: Atkinson provides priceless vocal performances. --Tom Keogh
