His TV career launched with the show, "Not the Nine o'clock News". This led to his starring in the relatively successful medieval sitcom The Black Adder. However, Atkinson's real fame came with his role as Mr. Bean, first appearing on New Year's Day in 1990. Mr Bean is sometimes compared to a modern-day Charlie Chaplin, frequently caught in a variety of unusual, difficult or compromising circumstances.
