Candy AI Shorts episodes: counts, running time and the free ones
Most Candy AI Shorts series run 5 episodes. Two of them open at no charge and last about a minute each; from the third episode a token price applies, 12 as a rule and 30 for creator series.



How many episodes a series has
Count on 5 episodes: that is the usual length, and it makes a typical Candy AI Shorts series feel like a short season rather than a marathon. A handful of series stretch to 6, 7 or 9 episodes, and a couple go much further, as the last section shows.
Spicy series play by their own rules. They are locked behind Premium already at episode 1, and we print no episode count for them.
Instead of opening series one by one, scroll to the table under this text. It sorts the full list of series we track, so it works as a Candy Shorts episode list you can reorder to bring the longest runs to the top.
How long the free episodes run
Our stopwatch has caught free episodes as brief as 38 seconds and as long as 118, with the typical one landing near a minute. That is Candy Shorts episode length at the sampling end: you could watch a pair while the kettle boils.
The player is vertical, with fullscreen, subtitles and a speed dial, so a slow scene can be hurried along. Those free minutes, plus the official thumbnails, are the raw material for our NSFW check of what each series shows.
Paid episodes never went under our stopwatch, so no timing is printed for them. A guess would be worth nothing to you.

On candy.ai, the access ladder has three rungs:
- First episode: open to any visitor, no registration.
- Second episode: behind a free registration, with no tokens spent.
- Third episode onward: a token price each, normally 12, and 30 for series from the Candy Creators section.
The standalone showcase candyshorts.com is looser: nobody needs an account to play episodes 1 and 2 there. To finish a standard series of 5 episodes you pay 36 tokens (3 × 12), while a creator series of that length costs 90.
A pair of exceptions bend the pattern. Simona Rossi: Wrong But Right keeps its first 3 episodes at 0 tokens, and Spicy titles want Premium before episode 1. For the money side read what tokens and plans cost, and to see who is open today, every series with free episodes right now has the live list.

The longest series
Yes Ma'am is the marathon, holding far more episodes than any other series we track. Behind it come Simona Rossi: Wrong But Right at 15 episodes, The Man Next Door Knows at 9 and Isabella's Revelation at 7.
The Anniversary Massage and Dad's New Girlfriend run 6 episodes each, one more than the usual length.
Length is where the bill swells, since every paid episode carries its own token price. Before you commit to a long one, look up cost to finish in our plain-English glossary, and keep the dated change log in view, because a series can gain episodes after you start. Whether a long run earns its tokens is a call for our Candy AI Shorts review.

Episodes: common questions
What is the usual episode count of a Candy AI Shorts series?
Most have 5 episodes. A few run to 6, 7 or 9, one reaches 15, and Yes Ma'am dwarfs them all. Spicy series are left out of that, since we print no episode count for them. The table on this page lets you compare the rest.
Candy Shorts episode length: how long does one run?
The free ones we timed range from 38 to 118 seconds, and a typical one lasts about a minute. Paid episodes were never timed by us, so we state no running time for them and prefer silence to a guess.
Which Candy AI Shorts episodes are free?
Over at candy.ai, the opener is there for every visitor, and registering for free brings the second without touching your tokens. The standalone showcase candyshorts.com asks for no registration at all. Spicy series stay locked and need Premium.
Is there a Candy Shorts episode list I can sort?
Yes: the sortable table on this page covers every series we track, so run lengths sit side by side. Each series page then explains what its free pair shows and what the locked episodes add, which tells you what the tokens buy.
