I thought it would be interesting to see what characters spoke the most, and who they spoke with, the most. I watched all 32 episodes and tracked every line of dialogue spoken by each of the main characters, and who they were spoken to, as well as just an overall line counter, to see who overall, had the most lines. This is the top 20 character's overall total amount of lines spoken up until the end of the Season 2 finale, in order from most to least.Tech (855 lines)Omega (778 lines)Hunter (749 lines)Wrecker (557 lines)Echo (545 lines)Crosshair (349 lines)Cid (238 lines)Rampart (165 lines)Phee Genoa (131 lines)Rex (122 lines)Chuchi (99 lines)Royce Hemlock (98 lines)Hera Syndulla (84 lines)Moff Tarkin (75 lines)Mayday (70 lines)AZI-3 (68 lines)Llama Su (51 lines)Cody (48 lines)Cad Bane (46 lines)Todo-360 (46 lines)What is a line?While it may seem obvious, I should probably clarify what is and isn't a line. For example, Wrecker grunts and growls quite a lot. However, that is not actually speaking, or any sensible dialogue, therefore it was not included. And some lines can be very short, for example if someone responds "Yes." and nothing more, that will still count as 1. However, if a line is "Yes, I will do that and this for you.", that would also be considered one line, as its one flat statement.INTERESTING FACTS =NOT COUNTING THE VERY FIRST EPISODE, as that episode was three times the length of all others. 4 characters in 1x01 had more dialogue than the #1 in all other 31 episodes.MOST DIALOGUE IN A SINGLE EPISODE =Tech , (2x09) with 82 lines.Mayday , (2x12) with 70 lines.Phee Genoa , (2x05) with 65 lines.Rex , (1x07) with 65 lines.Crosshair , (1x15) with 62 lines.Cid , (1x13) with 56 lines.Chuchi , (2x07) with 52 lines.Cody , (2x03) with 48 lines.Phee Genoa , (2x13) with 48 lines.Omega , (2x09) with 47 lines.AVERAGE LINES PER EPISODE THEY APPEAR IN =Tech = 29.5Omega = 26.8Hunter = 26.7Wrecker = 19.2Echo = 21.8Crosshair = 26.8Cid = 21.6Rampart = 12.7Hemlock = 24.5Rex = 24.4OTHER INTERESTING FUN FACTS =Hunter was #1 in dialogue for the entirety of Season 1, he was only passed by Tech in 2x02 and Omega in 2x04.Despite Echo being the odd man out with less development for many episodes, he actually ended up with more dialogue than Wrecker by his departure episode. By the end of S2, they were only separated by 12 lines.Despite being in only 13 episodes, Crosshair ends with 349 lines. For reference, Omega, Tech, and Wrecker were in 29 episodes. Hunter was in 28 episodes, and Echo was in 25 episodes.Omega was barely in the 1.5 hour long series premiere, resulting in her lines being far behind the other members in the beginning. She officially passed Echo and Crosshair in (1x04), Wrecker in (1x10), Hunter in (2x04). She also passed Tech at a few points throughout the series, but he came out on top.Tech utterly dominated dialogue throughout the two seasons. He was the only one to end with over 800 lines, and was consistently over a hundred lines ahead of the 2nd person most of season 2.I also tracked each individual character, and who they spoke to most. If people are interested, I could post them next. Hope someone found this as interesting as I did.
