Next, here is a breakdown of which characters we are the most of in 2023. Remember, for ODaaT, it is how many episodes a character is in vs. Diamonds it is how many scenes the character is in.
ODaaT

CD
Lydia 45
Mac 45
Kent 40
Dyhannah 39
Lucinda 36
Lex 35
Dane 28
Sabine 28
Houston 27
Quinn 27
Vivian 27
Nathan 26
Chase 23
Stacey 23
Cole 22
Deacon 18
Casper 14
Marat 14
Celeste 12
Madi 6
Natasha 3
Helena 2
Mortimer 2
For ODaaT, I was, at first, surprised to see Natasha at the top because I thought Abby was going to be leading, but Natasha has a lot of involvement with her family, the company, Shane, and even Cory, so it's not super surprising. And she had one of the biggest storylines this year. Abby and Leah are neck and neck behind her, which also isn't surprising considering the years they've had storyline wise. New characters like Antonio, Isabelle, Ethan, & Bryce didn't do so bad either!
On Diamonds, the three leads are always at the top of the pack, while the rest (the supporting cast) hover below them. I was surprised Celeste only had 12 scenes cause she was in a busy storyline, but that's the way the cookie crumbled!
What are your thoughts?
