Do the seasons two part finales and openers get less as the show goes on?

Seasons 3-6 end with a cliffhanger that is concluded in the next season. They start with arguably TNG's best two-parter, continue with Redemption and Time's Arrow, and conclude with Descent.

I just finished Descent part II. I was struck by how, for me, the two-parters become less as the show goes on. None are bad, and the first three are good to great. But while it's great, Redemption isn't as good as Best of Both Worlds; while good and fun, Time's Arrow isn't as good as Redemption; and Descent is a pretty lackluster, normal two-parter that doesn't stand out as a season finale and season opener. For me anyway.

Does anybody else agree? Did these two, parters go down in quality for you?
