One person tweeted: "Man vs Bee is hilariously refreshing. Brings back that Mr. Bean feel from back in the day. If you're having a bad day this one could cheer you up. Totally loved it. An easy funny binge," while another added: "A must watch for every Mr Bean fan… I enjoyed binge-watching the short but funny series."

A third commented: "This series is hilarious. Gave me such Mr Bean vibes. What a comic talent Rowan is."
At a recent virtual press conference, Rowan Atkinson told RadioTimes.com that the new series partly mirrors a Mr Bean sketch that the actor performed many years ago.
"I actually did a Mr Bean sketch a long, long time ago where he takes a picnic basket to a park and he's very, very bothered by a bee.
"So, to a certain extent, I feel that some of this show feeds off... it's like an extension, an extrapolation from that old sketch that we did in the early nineties."
Viewers praised the comedy series
He also went on to explain why the show wouldn't have worked with Mr Bean as the main character. "The idea of a man stuck in a house with a bee - it's undoubtedly redolent of Mr Bean, it's got a hint of the Mr Bean world," he said. "But I knew that for this kind of thing, Mr Bean as a character wouldn't work at all. He would be too self-centred, too sort of unpleasant, or there's a risk of it being unpleasant.
"So we decided that we really needed just a nicer man. So Trevor Bingley, who's the hero of Man Vs Bee, he's just an ordinary bloke really, a pleasant guy who clearly hasn't been very successful in life."
