The Marty Feldman of his era, and then some, Rowan Atkinson ranks among the premier physical comedians of our time. His Mr. Bean programs, created in his post-Blackadder period, dazzled audiences worldwide, bringing Atkinson international acclaim and spawning a hit feature film. The pathetic but endearing Mr. Bean is a simple man who manages to get enmeshed and usually imperiled in various bits of tomfoolery, though he always digs himself out of his fixes in delightfully ingenious ways. This three-disc set compiles all 14 Bean episodes plus the documentary "The Story of Bean" and the never-before-seen sketches "Bus Stop" and "Library." Episodes are as follows: Mr. Bean The Return of Mr. Bean The Curse of Mr. Bean Mr. Bean Goes to Town The Trouble with Mr. Bean Mr. Bean Rides Again Merry Christmas Mr. Bean Mr. Bean in Room 206 Mind the Baby Mr. Bean Do It Yourself Mr. Bean Back to School Mr. Bean Tee Off Mr. Bean Good Night Mr. Bean Hair by Mr. Bean of London
