#jltg: 1

[get-deutsche-bahned]

With Season 13 complete now, here's the updated season length comparison!

Season 12 remains on top with a total runtime of 6h 31mins, with season 13 a close second (comparatively) at 6h 12min, though it has one episode fewer. It thus decisively beats the third place, which is season 5 at 4h 52min.

This time, I also plotted the runtimes per episode within each season: their average (shown as the blue line), as well as the longest (yellow) and shortest (red) episode.

The longest episode for most seasons was the finale (seasons 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 13), with the runners-up the first episode (pilot and seasons 4 and 12), so, who's ready for season 13.5 to have two 1.5h-episodes? as well as the penultimate (seasons 1, 6, 9; though note that season 1 only had 3 episodes).

Initially, I expected the disparity between longest and shortest episode to be the largest for season 13 -- after all, the shortest episode had been 42 minutes, while the finale was almost twice as long at 1h 20min -- but the lead here is season 5 (Race to the End of the World; 23min/55min) followed by season 8 (Arctic Escape; 22min/58min). Both of those are very similar game formats. Season 1 only has four minutes of disparity between the minimum and maximum, or a maximum of 15% difference between episode runtimes, followed by season 4 with 9 minutes of difference, or 20%. Meanwhile, the maximum difference for seasons 5 and 8 were 57.7% and 56.2% respectively (i.e. the shortest episode was less than half as long as the longest, see above). Season 11, 12, and 13 all hover just below 50% difference (48.4%/59.5%/47.4%)

I found it very interesting to see episode length go down over the pre-channel opening seasons and then almost continually up from there-on; though, of course, the games have tended to get longer, too. Season 3, 7, 11 were the tag seasons, though even those have gotten longer as time progresses (for all that I believe each tag game is still only 3 filming days long).

I'm very excited to see where the journey will take them, stats-wise!

Cumulative Season runtime, ordered by length:

Season 12: 6:31:28 Season 13: 6:12:29 Season 5: 4:52:32 Season 6: 4:42:10 Season 10: 4:23:23 Season 11: 4:00:34 Season 8: 3:51:40 Season 9: 3:22:26 Season 4: 3:13:25 Season 3: 3:12:08 Season 7: 3:02:43 Pilot: 1:53:20 Season 2: 1:49:53 Season 1: 1:20:05

JET LAG THE GAME | Benjamin 'cardinal directions and vibes' Doyle (1 / ?)

[jetlaggedjetslag]

Oh yeah also Sam Denbys ability to conduct photo analysis surely is some CIA bullshit. You’re telling me this man can now figure out what subway station you’re at based on the fucking color of the tiles????

[ou-gh]

Something something Maeve making a joke about how Adam flirts by asking to collaborate on a satire piece something something Adam meeting Ben by asking him to collaborate like five seconds after meeting him

[monwillica]

just for some public accountability and heads up I'm gonna take a tumblr break for the next couple weeks while I do proposal defense and everything else i need to do before summer and moving. I mean if I end up finishing something to post I'll post it but honestly I suspect the next two weeks will just be 10000 pencil drawings of mat baynton anyway

[lagging-jets]

I need to know Sam denbys thoughts on f175

What does he think of Charles and Lewis' interactions as teammates, what are his opinions on the liveries, did he agree with booing the fia

I need to know

1 and 19 for jltg asks!

1. what is your favorite jet lag season?

19. which jet lag personality do you relate to the most?

1. s4 for sure!! i love the vibes of it all, plus the interactions between them all is so nice, like i love a season where they have to keep calling each other it really adds something for me

19. sam 100%. truly his effortless vibes of social awkwardness and random plane facts speak to me on such a personal level. i’m not saying it’s the autism but i’m not Not saying it’s the autism

ty for the ask :)

Decided to plot the total run times of the seasons (as posted on Nebula, excluding Outtakes and the visual Layover episodes). Season 13 is (unsurprisingly) shaping up to be long -- it's already beat four other season (the Pilot and seasons 1, 2, and 7)

Totals (in h:mm:ss)

Season 12 6:31:28 Season 5 4:52:32 Season 6 4:42:10 Season 10 4:23:23 Season 11 4:00:34 Season 8 3:51:40 Season 9 3:22:26 Season 4 3:13:25 Season 3 3:12:08 Season 13 3:05:52 Season 7 3:02:43 Pilot 1:53:20 Season 2 1:49:53 Season 1 1:20:05

Ben retweeted jltg fits!

[ID: A quote-retweet by jltg fits @/jetlagfits. The original tweet by jltg fits reads "not sure this is it but ben may be wearing this for day 1 of s7: 1980s batik airbrush floral hawaiian shirt by krash ($50). Attached is a photo of said shirt.

The quote-retweet reads "in s7e1, ben IS wearing that shirt, and his mum’s buff. crucially, he is also wearing a berger cookies hat ($15) to celebrate the “original baltimore classic” of “soft, cake-like cookie that is covered with delicious fudge icing”". Attached is a picture of Ben from the episode and a photo of the hat. It's retweeted by ben doyle. End ID]

I was looking at my drafts and 1 just said “he”. I have no idea what it is maybe if I had to guess it was a JLTG post that I was gonna write but only typed “he” before stopping.
