Some fans believe that Rowan Atkinson’s Mr. Bean is actually an alien. Episodes of his show began with Bean falling from the sky in a beam of light, which could be perceived as an alien tractor beam. This theory accounts for the fact that Bean doesn’t speak much, and why he seems to be so different from everyone around him.
Radon Poisoned The Dunder Mifflin Staff: The Office
NBC
If you’re like me, you think the characters of The Office get a little too outlandish and out of character in the last couple of seasons. One theorist set out to explain this by bringing up the radon in the building that Toby is so keen on getting checked out. By having no one remove the radon, everyone eventually had their brains deteriorate and altered to become cartoonish caricatures of the people they once were. Kevin is a whole lot smarter in the beginning, then he’s gluing turtle shells back onto turtles? Darryl sure seemed a lot more normal before he moved upstairs. Robert California started as a genius and ended up a self-sabotaging psychopath. This also explains why Michael is so calm during his final cameo, as his brain had time to heal.
