For me, S1 & S2 were excellent. Almost eveeything waa good and very few duds. S3 had fewer highs, lower highs, and lower lows.
But I though 4,5, & 6 were all very good to excellent. "The Sehlat Who Ate It's Tail" and "Space Adventure Hour" being my favorites. "Through the Lens of Time" was also pretty darn good.
"Hegemony, II" and the finale were perfectly satisfying episodes. As was the last part of "What Is Starfleet?" and everything but the ending in "Terrarium."
"Kenfori" was OK as a zombie ep. "Wedding Bell Blues" less so, but still OK-ish.
"Four and a half Vulcans" was a super dud for me.
