Doomsday Screentime Minutes

[BadToad]

The reason Lois felt like she had less screentime is that she's only in 3 scenes, and most of that time is all in one scene, the Lois/Clark/RBB scene. Her fight with Tess didn't even last 2m.

[myankskent]

Well, at least Clark had the most screentime. Too bad that screentime wasn't put toward a huge fight with Doomsday. Too bad that screentime wasn't put toward an actual storyline for Clark. Too bad this episode sucked.

Okay, So Clark's screentime in S8 beat his S5's screentime! Yay! And This is Lois' second highest screentime ever. Lois' screentime in S4 is higher obiviously.

[AgentChaos]

Chloe's total screentime and average this season is the highest ever of any character besides Clark, a mark previously held by Lana in Season 6. She would have passed 300 minutes if the numbers for Injustice had been able to count for her total. But she did get her highest time ever in Abyss, which was the highest overall for the season.

40 more seconds of screentime for Lois would have allowed her to beat her Season 4 average. But she was able to set a new high in screentime in Stiletto.

Clark had his best numbers since Season 4, but this is only the second season where he did not have a 30 minute episode, Season 5 being the other one.

This is also the first season where every main character averaged at least 9 minutes per episode. TPTB finally figured out how to give time to each character without shortchanging Clark most of the time.

[LordOnox]

Wait this was a season low for Cassidy?! I never noticed she had like no screentime...

[AgentChaos]

Tess really wasn't much of a factor in the episode. With everything else going on, there simply wasn't any more room for her.

[Tompouce]

Annie, I don't get it, why are you speaking about Power and Requiem : Clark was not there at all

[BadToad]

Dinah, 8m, 18s
Bart, 8m, 2s

[clois-destiny-forever]

That screentime for Lois is dismal. Makes me sad all over again for not seeing her for longer.

[Newguy43]

Thanks as always, BT!

Wow, Jimmy only had 11? And Davis and Oliver had 12, just like Lois!
If you look at it like that and you count the missed episodes, it's 5 episodes. Exactly the number of episodes Lana had. Maybe the others characters missed those episodes due to the budget?

[bizzaroboy9]

We should be happy that Clark got a lot of ST this year! Next year, with the rumored reduced cast Clark will def. get more next year!

[jpfort1957]

I was surpised, I thought Lois had almost no time at all on this epp.
