There is no spoiler protection in the episode discussion threads, and spoiler tags are not necessary!
I didn’t know that the 10 episodes limit was a Paramount rule, really I miss the 22 episodes season. That length forces the showrunners to work harder. Some the best TNG episodes are bottle episodes or limited cast episodes. Lock everyone in a room and you might get another ‘Measure of a Man’ or if whole cast is run down and shooting catch up scenes focus on the bit players and you can get another ‘Lower Decks’ (the episode not the series). If there were only 13 episodes a season on TNG there wouldn’t have been time enough to grow Gordie as a character or create O’Brian or … the list is too long.
