Both the penultimate episode and the finale of the season are 43 minutes long making for the longest episode of the season. Both would tie for the third longest episode of the season just behind Season 2, Episode 6 “Fishes” and “Braciole”, the finale of season 1.
The shortest episode of season 3 is at 27 minutes which is tied for the fourth shortest in the entire show.

For reference season 1 runs at a brisk 8 episodes for a total of 239 minutes.
Season 2 in totality adds up to 357 minutes but has 10 episodes including the longest episode of the season going over an hour.
The average of an episode for each season is the following:
Season 1 – 29.875 minutes
