There are 8 billion people on this planet. They speak thousands of languages, live in completely different cultures, and agree on almost nothing.
Except: Mr. Bean.
Since 1990, Rowan Atkinson’s weird little man has made people laugh in 245 countries. Kids in India. Grandmothers in Brazil. My grandfather (who I don’t think I ever saw laugh…) in rural Czech Republic.
All losing it at the same guy struggling to paint his living room by exploding a can of paint.
That doesn’t happen by accident, Mr. Bean was a calculated character (didn’t seem like it) who had a perfect formula for him to work globally.
Here’s how it all unfolded.
Also, want to know what’s crazy? There were only 15 episodes of the Mr. Bean TV series. Felt like there were hundreds…
NOPE.
