No it doesn't! There were a few dire ones like Gridlock and 42, yes, but there were gems too. Blink was of course great, but I also liked the Dalek Evolution story and the Family of Blood. And the Master was divine in those three episodes, I don't even care - I loved comedy Master as opposed to SERIOUS BUSINESS HERE IS MY EVIL BEARD Master.
But nothing compares to Season 5. With the exception of the Silurian episodes which were meh, every single other one knocked it out of the park imho.
Credit where credit is due though, RTD did write some belters - The Waters of Mars remains one of my absolute favourites.Seriously. Empty Child, Girl in the Fireplace, Blink and the Library were all the highlights of their respective seasons.
