《憨豆先生》(Mr. Bean)是英国BBC电视台的招牌喜剧，以半小时剧集形式播放，第一季共计14集。罗温·艾金森担当剧中主角，并建立了其形象。第一集于1990年1月1日在英国首播，而大结局则于1995年10月31日播出。
憨豆先生（罗温·艾金森 Rowan Atkinson 饰）是个“有一点笨拙、有一点幼稚、有一点单向思维、有一点腼腆、又有一点短路的家伙，做着单一的事情，穿着单一的衣服。憨豆先生有一个亲密的伙伴，就是他常常随身携带心爱的泰迪熊，连睡觉也要抱着。他平日的穿着则是非常典型的英国保守中产阶级的装扮。剧中对白极少，几乎都是靠“丰富的肢体动作”和“变化多端的表情”来呈现。

Childlike Englishman, Mr. Bean, is an incompetent watchman at the Royal National Gallery. After the museum's board of directors' attempt to have him fired is blocked by the chairman, who has taken a liking to Bean, they send him to Los Angeles to act as their ambassador for the unveiling of a historic painting to humiliate him. Fooled, Mr. Bean must now successfully unveil the painting or risk his and a hapless Los Angeles curator's termination.
