The Office (US) is a sitcom depicting the lives of office-workers at a paper company. I found data consisting the teleplay of 186 of 201 The Office episodes. It looks like this:
I list below the average number of scenes by season.
The show started off with ~51 scenes in an episode. Starting season 5, there was a shift towards having fewer, longer scenes.
Below is a breakdown of the number of lines said by the characters.
I rank the characters below by their vocabulary– the number of unique words in their lines.
This list looks a bit different from the one before. Though Andy has fewer lines than Jim and Pam, he uses more unique words.
I rank below scene partners by the number of scenes they’re in.
The average line is 59.8 characters. The longest line is Michael’s line from Season 1 Episode 3 Scene 48. It is 1439 characters long.
Michael says his iconic punchline, “That’s what she said” 17 times over the 186 episodes.
Good analysis!
Good analysis and data picking son. You should take it to next level by drawing inferences from the facts / data analysis you did.
