Man vs. Bee TV review - Aussieboyreviews
IS MAN VS. BEE AS RANDOM, DUMB AND FUNNY AS THE TITLE SUGGESTS?
If there’s any words for this Rowan Atkinson miniseries, it’s randomly original, dumbly silly and oddly funny. Man vs. Bee is co-created by and stars Atkinson as a house-sitter at war with an annoying bee.
Storyline
A man finds himself at war with a mischievous bee whilst housesitting a luxurious mansion owned by a rich couple.

Aussie boy's thoughts
Man vs. Bee is exactly what it looks like: a housesitting Mr. Bean at war with a mischievous bee within the walls of a luxurious mansion. There is absolutely nothing special or significantly memorable about this brainless miniseries, but it’s randomly original, dumbly silly and oddly funny. There’s also no doubt that comedian Rowan Atkinson’s fans will love binging each short episode, all of them consisting of a (no offense) unintelligent man at war against an annoying but (no praise) very smart bee, who also hilariously happens to be immortal!
