Bear Behaving Badly is a CBBC sitcom that originally ran from 2007 to 2010. It features the small blue puppet bear Nev (from the Sunday morning programme Smile!) alongside fellow CBBC presenter Barney Harwood.Nev and Barney live together in a flat, within an apartment block owned by Barney's wealthy uncle Rupert. Among their neighbours include caretaker Andy Prank, who Nev refers to as "Angry Pants". Mr Prank is Nev's worst enemy, who in return sees him as an annoying blue nuisance who sets off his allergies. There is also Crazy Keith the koala, who lives underneath the floorboards of Barney and Nev's flat.

comment
Love Potion: The episode with the same name has Prank try and get Barbara on his side by falling in love with him through drinking tea. However, he ends up drinking the wrong cup and falls for his worst nemesis Nev instead. Meanwhile after both drink the potion, Beatrice falls for Barney which can be considered good for him... although he is too busy admiring his own self at the moment to notice.

Mirror Universe: Nev and Crazy Keith encounter one after falling through a magic mirror in the episode "Nev Through the Looking Glass". There, they find out Prank is now Nev's best mate, Barney is the evil caretaker, and a wicked version of Beatrice is wanting to use Nev's fur to make a new coat. Finally, there's Boring Keith, a dull version of Crazy Keith with an extensive library of books.

Bottle Episode
 Bear Behaving Badly / int_62907b90
comment
Bottle Episode: As per tradition for most British live-action series. Nearly every episode spends time inside the apartment block, with Barney's flat having the most focus. Although there are some exceptions such as Nev being chased by Mr Prank around the park in one episode, and the occasional shots outside on the road of their apartment.

Shout-Out: The title itself is a reference to Men Behaving Badly. "Day of the Terrific" has the giant house-plant which is a complete reference to Little Shop of Horrors. The wibbles from their own episode are an obvious parody on the tribbles from Star Trek.
