Somehow three years have passed since Rowan Atkinson first introduced us to Trevor Bingley on Man Vs. Bee, and I’m still not over the anxiety it caused. Its cancellation after one season made sense (nine episodes of being bested by an insect was quite enough), but now he’s officially back in the follow-up series Man Vs. Baby. Critics watched the new series, which is available to stream now with a Netflix subscription, and it sounds like we may see a different side to our hapless hero.
