How this calculator works
Award shows and their after-specials can add up to a long night of viewing. This calculator totals up your planned marathon by multiplying the number of shows by their average runtime, then adding time for breaks between each one.
It also suggests a rough number of snack or stretch breaks based on the total watch time, using a general guideline of taking a short break roughly every 90 minutes of continuous viewing.
This is a fun scheduling tool for planning your evening; actual show lengths vary and often run longer than scheduled.
