Urbain

Description: This short-lived Flemish comedy is really just a vehicle for stand-up comedian Urbanus Van Anus, who plays Urbain (his nickname in real life, simply the French for Urbanus, as he's generally abbreviated) as his eternal persona, sort of a self-confident version of Frank Spencer (from Some Mothers 'Ave Em): nobody is safe for his inverse Midas-touch and crazy ideas, and he's guaranteed to attract more bad luck then Murphy's Law predicts, but he's unrepentant.
