All the four season's of the Black Adder have 6 Episodes. I have noticed that in the second episode of every season, the Black Adder almost dies or it is alteast said that he is going to die - and then - he somehow just manages to live.

Is there some kind of pattern here? Do all the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth episodes also have something in common?

Or something in those lines?

There are no fifth and sixth seasons (sadly). – System Down Jan 7 at 15:45
@SystemDown I mean Episodes and not seasons. – user221287 Jan 8 at 10:46
There are certainly running gags. Not a complete answer, but some patterns include Baldric's "Cunning plans", the appearance of the cross-dressed 'Bob' and the womanizer who sweeps her off her feet, the repeated motif of turnips, and repeated use of some incompetent leader figure who Black Adder is subordinate to (in order of season, the king, the queen, the prince of Wales, and the general). Not sure about episodic patterns though. – B. Elliott Feb 6 at 8:02
