Man vs. Bee

Man vs. Bee is a British comedy series created by Rowan Atkinson and William Davies for Netflix. The first season streamed on June 24, 2022 along with season 2 of Angry Birds: Summer Madness.

Plot
Trevor Bingley tries to house-sit for the Kolstad-Bergenbattens, but he is interupted by a solitary bee.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The concept of a comedy about a human-vs-bee rivalry is very dumb, it would work better if as a standalone series or a cartoon, but a story arc?!, it may look better as a Netflix movie.
 * 2) The series is mean-spirited towards the main character Trevor Bingley as he is arrested for destruction of a house due to his rivalry with the bee.
 * 3) Some of the characters badly written.
 * 4) * Trevor Bingley focuses on killing the bee more than house-sitting the house, which causes him to be inresponsible in house-sitting.
 * 5) * The Bee does not serve anything in the story besides annoying Trevor.
 * 6) * Cupcake Kolstad-Bergenbatten, the family's pet collie-poodle cross dog, is a Butt-Monkey, she eats peanut butter despite his peanut allergy, poisoned by sprays and having a bee house fall on her.
 * 7) * Christian Kolstad-Bergenbatten is out of place twist-villain as it turns out he paided the burglars for robbery and claims fake insurances.
 * 8) Gross-out scenes like Trevor falling on Cupcake's poop after Cupcake bit his butt.
 * 9) Trevor and the Bee's rivalry is very pointless and serves as filler even though the show is called MAN VS BEE.
 * 10) Quantity Over Quality: David Kerr states it might be possible that the series might have a second season.
 * 11) The title of the show itself was way too similar to that of Kid vs. Kat.

Good Qualities

 * 1) It started the return of Rowan Atkinson's comedy career.
 * 2) The Bee and Cupcake are very cute.
 * 3) Despite being out of place, at least Christian Kolstad-Bergenbatten got his comeuppance for getting Trevor arrested at the end of the series.
 * 4) Good Ending: Trevor and his daughter, Maddy finally got to their vacation.
