I used to think that, and in some ways it’s true. I never really appreciated DS9 until much later. There is a ton of “drama” that coming from my sheer worship adoration of TNG, I didn’t like or enjoy at the time. Though later I came to appreciate the greater depth of the show, and looking back I even see TNG now as lacking the drama - IKR, SACRILEGE!? Fortunately they are both excellent shows, and have lots to offer everyone:-).
Also if you haven’t yet check out Earth: Final Conflict, which his wife Majel Rodenberry (computer voice woman) created from Gene’s notes, after he died. It’s a totally different show than any of the Star Treks, but he has such a versatile mind that basically everything he did was good - surely that speaks to enormous efforts made on his behalf to make them thus:-).
