Earl Grey 67: 500 Lt. Commanders Can't Be Wrong

TNG Ranks & Promotions. 

Star Trek has created a universe where Starfleet personnel
have recognizable ranks and positions. The Next
Generation promoted several characters and moved others to
various ship positions, while at the same time left certain
officers in the same rank through all seven seasons and four
feature films. Darren, Daniel, and Phillip examine the career
paths of the TNG crew, how the Starfleet promotion system on
the Enterprise fits into the greater canon of the 22nd,
23rd, and 24th centuries, and discover a surprising conspiracy
concerning those with full commander rank.
