“Cosby attributed most of the movie’s problems to first-time director Weiland, whom he felt was too young and inexperienced. Cosby himself was producer and writer of the story” — New York Times (24 January 1988)
Between 1991 and 1992, Weiland directed several episodes of the Mr. Bean television series starring Rowan Atkinson. In 2005, The Times wrote: “The director Paul Weiland made millions laugh with the television comedy series Mr Bean and Alas Smith and Jones.”
In 1994, Weiland returned to feature films as the director of City Slickers II: The Legend of Curly’s Gold starring Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern, Jon Lovitz and Jack Palance. The film was a sequel to the popular 1991 film City Slickers. In the film, Billy Crystal’s character discovers a treasure map and sets off with Lovitz and Stern to find the treasure of gold in the Arizona desert.
The year 1987 was the time Weiland was first introduced as a director of feature films in the form of Leonard Part 6, a comedy that starred Bill Cosby as secret agent who is summoned from retirement to protect the world from a wicked genius who has discovered the capability to influence tiny animals to kill human beings. The film received a mixed review and box office flop. The Village Voice called it “the worst film of the decade.” The Los Angeles Times wrote: “‘Leonard Part 6’ is a smug, tedious exercise in self-indulgence … There’s virtually nothing to laugh at in this film, and too much of everything else.” The Times noted that, even though Weiland had been the filmmaker, “clearly Cosby, as star, producer and idea man, is the auteur here.”
