Traditionally 100 is the magic number for syndication in the US. Typically a successful series would achieve this part-way through its 5th season. Most getting full season runs would hit 88 at the end of season 4.

Though as has been noted this seems to be less of a thing now, and streaming services don’t order 22 or 23 episode seasons because they don’t have two big broadcast blocks either side of Christmas to fill so it feels like there are less of them around.
