Thanks! That kinda stinks that Oliver had more screentime than Chloe, but its nbd.

Oh I'm happy to see that Clark's screen time is consistently so high.

Yay for Clark and Lois!

Chloe and Oliver milked every last second out of their appearances. It's surprising that they were on for less than ten minutes tops. And it was great to see Jimmy with more of Clark and Lois, instead of Chloe. Also interesting was the fact that he and Lois were meeting for dinner and that Clark was brought into the dinner conversation, but not Chloe.

We'll have to see if it's actually Chloe who got the all the screentime. She's been a really good eevull Brainiac shell.

Thanks as always, BadToad. And oh, the horrors; the previously on ate up precious episode time. It was a fairly fast paced episode but still, no wonder it seemed to go so fast.

Thanks BadToad

even though chloe is technically 2nd for the most screen time
i think it is lois who gets more and let me explain me:

whereas chloe has been in ALL the episodes, lois has not (albiet she has missed one), she is not that far off from chloe considering she hasnt been in all the episodes. someone who is 2nd in credits and overall screen times, but comparing it to loiss, idk it seems less to me

Thanks, BadToad. It's so interesting to look at the screentime, especially when you (general you) watch the actual series and know how each character's screentime is being used. I think this season, the writers have done a good job at not "wasting" the precious screentime of anyone. I hope that continues!

I definitely agree with this. Maybe Toxic was an exception to that for a few reasons, but overall, I think all the characters are being used very well, and in a meaningful way. SV is notoriously bad at that, so I definitely think we're seeing a changed philosophy at work here.

And isn't it terrific? Season 8 is made of great!

Clark is blowing everyone out of the water when it comes to screentime. The rest of the cast is not even past 100 mins yet.

no kidding! Unlike the 6th season, when lex and Lana got all the screen time, and Clark barely got any.

He usually does in each season. But his numbers are definitely an improvement over the last 2 seasons. By this time in S7, Clark's total was 125m, 29s, and in S6 it was 94m, 50s.

Thanks BadToad. Always interesting to see how they are spreading out screen time.

[celita]

Thank you Badtoad, I was waiting to see the screentime of this episode.

[curiosity]

Thanks Badtoad once again.

This episode had the perfect balance of screen totals for each character, except Lois. I'd like to see her with more. IMO.
