If you've ever wanted to watch the whole series in one day when you're sick, or the weather is bad, you might be able to do it faster than you think.

The show ran from 1990 to 1995, with only 15 episodes.

While you'd initially think there were many moments to soak up, there are only six and a half hours to watch.

In those precious hours, Mr. Bean's comedic brilliance shines through, leaving an indelible mark on the comedy world.

You wouldn't finish the first season of 'Game of Thrones' before binge-watching all the episodes of Mr. Bean.

It's kinda mind-boggling that such an awesome show could have such a small amount of stuff from that long.

"The reason we think it has dozens of episodes is that each episode had 3 different stories in it, so it was like getting three episodes for every episode," said one fan.

Another added: "And every single episode can be understood by anyone on earth without knowing english or even any language at all."

A third wrote: "I love Mr. Bean. Me and my grandfather used to watch it all the time. He didn't speak English, and it was a great show we could both laugh and enjoy."

There are plenty of memories to soak up, though. Whether he's stuffing a Christmas turkey, steering his Mini through the streets on an armchair on the roof, or trying to get his swimmers on at the beach, Atkinson was the master of non-verbal comedy.

Mr Bean's legacy is still strong, with an animated TV show, awesome films, cool books, and even a memorable moment at the 2012 London Olympics Opening Ceremony.

But Mr. Bean isn't the only legendary series that didn't last very long, you know? John Cleese's famous show 'Fawlty Towers' was on TV for only 12 episodes in four years, but it made a huge impact on comedy.

Like, the UK version of 'The Office' gave us only 14 episodes in two and a half years. On the other hand, the American version was like BAM! It had a crazy 201 episodes spread over nine seasons from 2005 to 2013.

These examples are a solid reminder that sometimes, in the TV world, quality is way more important than quantity.
