Get Beaned

Yet another apathetic day in the office and I started home by around 10:30 PM. Its a 10 minute drive to my home and its really cool riding my Streethawk over Gemini flyover during nights when there is not much traffic. I always feel like forgiving everyone when I fly my bike. Once I reach home, I relax myself watching some comedy shows in KTV or Raj TV. I always preferred vivek or vadivelu rather than kaundamani.. I had to wait untill one of my favourite program featuring Mr. Rowan Atkinson in my favourite channel POGO.

THUD!!! Mr. Bean falls from the sky as the play starts in this way. One thing I like about him is his physical comedy with very little dialogue. The humour largely comes from his original and most complicated solutions to simple problems and his total disregard for others, his pathetic behaviour, sympathetic face expressions,innocent walking style; often seems unaware of the basic aspects of the way, the world works. One of my favourite is Mr. Bean taking exams. His Show-Off character stands out large when he tries to compete with others. There is a one particular scene when his collegue takes out a pen, pencil and rubber to get ready for the exam, Bean shows off that he is not the kind of person to be underestimated by taking out a huge mass of pens and pencils and puts it before his collegue. The thing is that none of the pens actually write and finally he had to grab a pen from his collegue and start writing. The hilarious thing is the way he puts it in the sequence, especially the expressions that make you laugh when he blinks through whole of the exam trying his best to copy from his neighbour only to find in the end of the exam that he started off with the wrong question paper; whereas his question paper for his specialized subject which he had actually prepared would be inside the cover.

One other character to be mentioned is his cute lime green car, Austin mini. Look at the security he provided. A bolt and latch rather than use an inbuilt lock fitted on the car.

Anyway, it’s a good program that hooks you to your television set for half an hour. There are lots of other funny programs worth seeing like Just for laugh Gags, Takeshi’s castle, World’s funniest videos and MAD. Check out these programs. You would really enjoy.
See you soon..
