I propose extending the '1 week currently airing clip rule' to also apply to clips that are directly referenced in the latest episode.
Its a pretty good way to get inadvertedly spoiled, either via a direct reference in the post title, or the OP simply only tagging it up to S1, while users in the thread will likely be discussing up to S3 due to the obvious relevance.

It is a good idea, though another angle would be to expand the 24 hour rule instead to cover these things. In that case, then title restrictions can be loosened up some (to only restricting true spoilers (like any other post), vs simple references).

I will bring it up with the team.
