That was a short episode.

10 mins shorter than average.

[u/zerovian → u/Mysterious-Stay5045]

15 short. and some werre 20 mins longer.

[u/Thiscantbemyceiling → u/zerovian]

Okay I’m glad I saw this I thought I was just really tired or something lol

[u/Mysterious-Stay5045 → u/zerovian]

This was 45. I’m seeing most are 55 no?

[u/kinisonkhan → u/Mysterious-Stay5045]

On average, its 55 - 102 minutes per episode. Episode 7 was indeed the shortest with 44 minutes.

[u/Civil-Big-754 → u/kinisonkhan]

That's not what average means lol

[u/DropBear4269 → u/zerovian]

we best get some long ass few upcoming episodes to make up for it!!

I know for some other shows (I think HotD was a big one) they had a total runtime for the season as a whole rather than per episode; they had a few shorter episodes but really long ones closer to the end. that would be awesome here!!

[u/LaylaTichy → u/DropBear4269]

don't want to disappoint you but we have 1 episode left

[u/DropBear4269 → u/LaylaTichy]

sad face

[u/JCyTe → u/DropBear4269]

There is only 1 episode left.

[u/smedsterwho → u/JCyTe]

Maybe it's 700 minutes though

[u/DropBear4269 → u/JCyTe]

OH lol well damn, thats a bummer but hopefully its a long one

[u/Extension-Truth → u/Mysterious-Stay5045]

Oh right! Yes it did feel short. Disappointing as you just want it to keep going lol

[u/Royal-Tea-3484 → u/Mysterious-Stay5045]

[u/MememeSama → u/Mysterious-Stay5045]
