Hell, DS9 is my second-favorite Trek and a good chunk of its Season 1 bores the heck out of me. Roddenberry and Berman Trek weren't always Hugo and Emmy material themselves.
YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!!!!!
No.
You are NOT of the Body!
That's a shame.
Not really. 
You're using a TOS era reference in talking about the TNG/DS9 era? SHAME ON YOU!

This is the way.
Isn't that a Taylor Swift song?
Not unless it has a lyric about breaking up with TOS and no longer wanting to watch it.

TNG, ds9, voy and ENT imo all had very weak starts, but I'll take even those weak seasons over most of Kurtzman trek, including most of SNW
Its got that Jim Kirk Gold/Green Command shirtIsn't that a Taylor Swift song?
It's got that flashing light for ship Red Alerts
And when we go warping away, we come back every time
'Cause it never goes out of style, it never goes out of style
Literally. People act as if TOS/TNG/DS9 was some amazing prestige high point for consistent television quality when it was pretty hit and miss.
"Mr. Worf, fire!" sticks in the mind a lot more strongly than the sinking feeling you got when you realised it was another holodeck/Wesley/Lwaxana/Ferengi episode.

It's funny though, I've really enjoyed my rewatch of TNG season 1 which I remember really hating back in the day
Yup. It's great fun but it's not high art. I think it can have good writing but that isn't always the case.
Or...just about any Lwaxana episode.
Hmmm… sounds like Star Trek!
There was a creativity that simply doesn’t exist later in the franchise.
