I really liked the one with Thomas Edison.

[Giantsfan1080]

I watched the first few but then I missed the rest because I had not TV for awhile. They were actually really good.

[ImBrotherCain]

I recorded them all. Started watching them at 1am yesterday and I couldn't stop until 4:30 am when I started passing out. Just woke up and started them right up.

I just started the Chase/Edison one.

With that said Tesla >Edison

[Rosebud]

**** Edison.

[Giantsfan1080]

Tesla should have marketed his stuff better.

Burn Notice--

Is Sam Axe slipping or what? Not cool.

[vidae]

It had bad ratings and bad writing. They did the smart thing.

I don't see it as slipping, but merely being the moral center of the group and asserting said role.

Let's face it, Burn Notice jumped the shark by making Michael a murderer. They can try to spin it however they like but Michael killed Tom Card in cold blood.

The whole premise of the show was Michael Weston finding the people who burned him. That question has been answered long ago and the writers are struggling to continue the show.

Burn Notice needs to just end.

Burn Notice was supposed to be ended long time ago but strong tv ratings have kept the show alive. Now, it has only one more year to wrap it up. USA apparently wants the show to reach 100th episode mark.


I hope Burn Notice will do a spin off for Sam Axe and Jess. Mike and Fi are married and stay with his mom somewhere outside US.

It's a sad day gents.

Rowan Atkinson fears the end is in sight for his beloved comedy creation Mr. Bean as playing him has become "childish and sad".

Atkinson's famously bumbling character debuted on television in 1990, with the Mr. Bean show running for five years and spawning two successful movies and a cartoon spin off.

Mr. Bean made his most recent appearance at the Opening Ceremony of London's Olympic Games over the summer, but Atkinson, 57, now wants to concentrate on more serious acting roles.

He tells the Daily Telegraph, "The stuff that has been most commercially successful for me - basically quite physical, quite childish - I increasingly feel I'm going to do a lot less of. Apart from the fact that your physical ability starts to decline, I also think someone in their 50s being childlike becomes a little sad. You've got to be careful."

I've only ever seen the Mr Bean movie where he kidnaps some kid on his way to Cannes. Twas fun.

[Bert Macklin]

His TV show was awesomely funny.

[vidae]

Mr. Bean is amazing.

[Giantsfan1080]

Mr. Bean the TV show is brilliant. Comedy at it's highest but done in a way that most people think it's rubbish.
