Trek always tries 'new' and 'wacky' for the first three seasons, which tend to be rubbish. In season 4 they decide on an identity for the programme, it peaks with innovation and cool stuff in season 6 ("Chain of Command"/"Far Beyond The Stars"/Year of Hell"), season 7 is fun, good tv but lacking the "wow!" episodes and it ends.

I hereby patent this as Valium's Law of Star Trek.
