TNG had a few good episodes in the first 2 season, but a lot more meh those years. 3,4 and 5 are where that show took off.

A great villain can do that. That's something the TOS did fairly well, although somewhat predictably. They frequently had an overpowered enemy combined with a ticking clock. Or found ways to combine diplomatic issues, internal strife and/or and external threats (Journey To Babel and Patterns of Force, comes to mind).

TNG had its moments early - Q was a great way to kick off, but, yeah, as I said before, way too much deus ex Wesley Crusher, especially season 1.
