I'm rewatching some early TNG. Abysmal. It's amazing that this show made it to season two. I don't think this show would have ever become a classic if Gene Roddenberry hadn't gotten sick.
The best of a bad lot:
Conspiracy
Too Short a Season
Heart of Glory
The Battle
I also watched season seven's Phantasms:
There are some clunkers in the final season, but I think it's generally underrated.
