message: FINAL EPISODE MR.BEAN IS REVEALED TO BE AN ALIEN?
LIES
WATCH BOTH A GRAND INVITATION AND A RUNNING BATTLE ON YOUTUBE ALL THE WAY THRU AND THERE WAS NOTHING RELATED TO HIM BEING AN ALIEN AT ALL
IT MIGHT BE IN AN EPISODE THO AND IT SHOULD BE LISTED INSTEAD OF A VAGUE LIE LIKE 'THE LAST EPISODE'
NEED ALOT MORE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE ANIMATED SERIES ARTICLE AND THIS 1  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.186.100.173 (talk) 05:06, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't these be referred to as programs with different episodes within them or different skits? There are more than 14 "episodes/programs". It's kind of misleading...  Jon the editor (talk) 03:57, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Thanks for semi-protecting this page. This page gets a hell of a lot of childish vandalism from anonymous IPs and single-purpose accounts all the time (goes with the territory, I suppose). I don't suppose it could be semi-protected for a little longer than August 24th could it, please? I'm a bit sick of reverting it all the time. Of the last 500 edits, as far as I can tell there have been no contructive edits from IP addresses whatsoever. Bob talk 09:27, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Well, the last film was supposed to be his last appearance. I don't think he is meant to be "dead" as such. Would have made an interesting end to the series, though... Bob talk 10:48, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  is mr bean dead? 

message: The article says:
Atkinson has said at the time of the first film's release that he imagines Bean's first name to be Julian, thus making Julian Bean a reference to famous guitarist and lutenist Julian Bream. 
Does this mean that Atkinson himself made the connection between Julian Bean and Julian Bream, or is this a connection made by an overly enthusiastic editor? Looking at the article history, the addition was made here by an editor who made numerous edits to numerous articles, all seeming perfectly legitimate. Still, it would be good to see some sort of a reference for this. JBarta (talk) 11:17, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

message: I've added more text to this section. I have seen The Best of Mr. Bean twice now and decided that this information should be added to the article. After the tank crushed the mini, its condition was beyond repair. Seeing the undamaged mini parts in Mr. Bean's loft was very clear. I actually find the end of that episode rather emotional. I also think there should be a separate article for The Best of Mr. Bean, but I cannot do it alone. Any opinions and help are appreciated. High Orbit (talk) 23:45, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Mini 

message: I requested help for confirming the information for this article. Instead, I received a message saying that the article had been nominated for deletion, which it was shortly afterwards. I think The Best of Mr. Bean should have its own article (I clearly state this above in The Mini section). I may occasionally find it hard to supply references and links, but I asked for help with supplying that information with The Best Of Mr. Bean. I did not ask for any nominations for deletion. Is any help too much to ask? High Orbit (talk) 15:33, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: As The Best of Mr. Bean is essentially just a compilation episode/video of sketches from other episodes in the series, it's not really important enough to have its own article. It currently redirects to the List of Mr. Bean episodes, which should be ok. Bob talk 15:50, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Best Of Mr. Bean

message: Mr.Bean is a very funny show by Rowan Atkinson and he has done very well in the past.. 
His show i must say i have been watching for the last few days because i have been sick and 
i think watching Mr.Bean has made me feel better. My favorite episode is Room 426. I found it very FUNNY! :)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Caity-leela (talk • contribs) 02:57, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

message: I do not think that "slow-witted" accurately describes Mr. Bean. Quite the contrary, he often devises clever solutions to accommodate his lack of understanding of social mores. These solutions are often awkward and therefore comical, but they cannot be described as lacking intelligence. What he lacks is a balanced perspective of the world. When viewed through the skewed lens through which Mr. Bean views the world, his actions are in fact shrewd, even cunning, given the slightly malevolent spirit of Mr. Bean (as has been acknowledged by Rowan Atkinson). Mr. Bean is a complex character, and to call him "slow-witted" is a gross simplification and misunderstanding of his actions in ignorance of the deep undercurrents influencing his behavior. "Childish" accurately encompasses both his ignorance of society's ways and his shrewd way of dealing with situations.  --Baekken (talk) 16:40, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
