Some advice for TNG. Don't skip seasons 1 and 2. It's popular but misguided advice. I finished TNG this year and generally enjoyed these seasons despite their flaws.
To that effect, here's an optimized episode watch guide for each. Six episodes removed per season to save you 9 hours in total. Return to the skipped episodes later if you're interested.
