Where can I find the highest quality episodes of Mr.Bean?

I torrented a few episodes from 1337x, but they are quite compressed/low-quality. Is this the best there is or is there a higher quality version hidden somewhere? It wasn’t originally filmed it at such a low quality, right?

Mr_Blott ,

It probably was broadcast at piss-poor quality, usually 520p

Yes, that is the quality of the original presentation. If anything it looks worse because it has been converted from film to a digital signal, as well as being stretched to be a bit larger than normal. Lmk if you young whippersnappers have any questions about this, I grew up watching this on VHS back in the dark times 👴

this is a screengrab from the best quality amazon prime has, think it’s all the same videotape

Mr. Bean only exists at 576p DVD quality. It probably wasn’t shot in high quality film, so no HD releases have been released.

Tbh that’s actually pretty good for what is probably a VHS rip. They might not even be all that compressed compared to the original.

I don’t know much about the series, but I found season 1 of it in 1080p on The RARBG - 17.6GB. That’s all I could find in 1080p aside from some specials and the animated series. Possibly AI upscaled, if that matters (can’t confirm either way tho)

Edit: Theres a bigger collection on Bitsearch, supposedly the complete series in 1080p. Looks to be about 28 episodes, but the total size is only 5.98GB. Again, not sure if AI upscaled, possibly worse quality than the first one, but more episodes?

gila ,

Yes, both are upscaled p2p releases

Looks better than I expected

This torrent for Season 1 is labeled as 1080p: Mr. Bean.1990.S01.1080p.H264-Zero00

hoghammertroll ,

Yep, that looks like the one I found per my comment. Wasn’t sure if we could link

Nilz ,

You can find most if not all episodes on YouTube as well. I don’t think there are any high quality versions around anyway.
