A key figure behind Star Trek's classic era has likened the shortened seasons of modern TV to the equivalent of a Tinder relationship, and said he hoped the sci-fi franchise would return to 22-episode seasons.
I’m not expecting a return to the old 26 episode seasons, but damn, 15 would be a nice middle ground that would give the season’s story arc time to develop and breathe (if it even has one, which I don’t think is always necessary, tbh).
10 feels too short.
Besides, it just makes sense, given their goal is to keep people subscribed year-round. If new episodes are only coming out for 2 months of the year, that makes their service a harder sell.
Agreed, this season of SNW felt like they were missing at least 5 episodes of interactions with the baddy. Like it was here is this season’s baddy and then 2 episodes and he’s dead. I remember when they would meet up with the baddy every few episodes and reveal more of their backstory before killing them.

I mean, I’d take only that one show (on a ship)(or space station) and just that show for 20 episodes .
And the things I would do for a directly post DS9 show are… unspeakable.
