It’s amazing to think, Worf has a character arc spanning two shows, multiple episodes, and it’s all deeply entwined with everything we know about the Klingons.
Thanks y’all! Really enjoy the vids!
I really liked the ending where the crew stands at attention for Worf. Gave a bit of military feel to Starfleet.
I actually loved Lursa and B'etor being quietly underplayed. Their scheming and maneuvering is antithetic to honourable Klingons custom. They definitely don't feel like ordinary Klingons. "You have manipulated the circumstances with the skill of a Romulan".
Excellent tea.
Gowron is such an iconic Start Trek side character, almost as iconic as his wide-eyed stare:) I find him way more interesting and entertaining than the Duras sisters, probably my second favourite TNG recurring character after Q
Gowron as a leader was barely better than Duras. It's ironic both Klingon leaders eventually got killed by Worf.
I realize this is two years ago, but how did Robert not jump all over Nick's "personalities" comment? I was screaming!
6:40 I always found it hilarious that Denise Crosby claims that she doesn't regret leaving Star Trek and is she put it didn't want to be stuck on the bridge set saying yes captain for the next several years yet she seemed to jump at every opportunity the writers gave her to make a cameo appearance
Armus actually starred in World of Goo (2008).
But in all seriousness this episode felt a bit more unsure on the "is a crew member actually leaving" than other episodes. That helped a lot for enhancing the gravity of the situation, as most of the episodes put a bow on the crew being okay and back together (or a one off character resolving their story) by the end of the allotted time.
*SPOILER WARNING:* _Actually,_ Armus pilots Krang’s mech from TMNT in the second part of the episode.
And it could fire while cloaked.
I remember seeing this that summer and after the ending saying to myself "But she's dead!"
i agree that Klingons that are more understated, calculating and subtle as opposed to loud space vikings work very well (think characters like Chang and Kor from the original cast). The Duras sisters fit this mould of Klingon and very much seem to be influenced by the characters of Goneril and Regan from King Lear and I thought they were written very well if you analyse them through that lens. This is the second best of the show's cliffhangers during their seven year run on T.V.
This episode was originally supposed to be the Season 3 Closer and Part 2 the Season 4 Opener, but it was changed for the Borg
It was a real good episode. I remember this one. The story really has legs and was moving both characters and plots forward which up to this point, I felt, was standard Star Trek fare, not affecting other episodes.
The sisters were pretty distinctive to me: one was super sly and the other was horny. I enjoy just about everyone Klingon/Worf focused episode and this was a great cliffhanger with Worf resigning. Nice to see Candyman back (I'm so glad that you all pointed that out in the other vid because it got me to rewatch this set of eps).
I'm on point with you guys as well. A- for a really good episode. This is one of my favorite episodes of the series.
Another great video,always gets me laughing thanks guys.
I love watching your TNG reviews. I'm glad you guys keep making them
When I was watching TNG on 1st run as a teenager, I hated the Klingon episodes because I found them boring. Later on isn't an adult. I found them to be the most fascinating because of the politics.
Great episode. I love Lursa and B'Etor, and it's always good to feature more about great Klingon culture. It's a great moment when the crew line the corridor on route to the transporter. Gotta love Gowron!
A-
Michael Dorn's contract must have been up for re-negotiation.
It's the end of a season, I'd expect just about everyone's contract was up for re-negotiation.
The Aunt Spiker reference is legit... But is it possible it's bc they are 2 actresses acting around false teeth?
Hmm.
Ok. The Duras sisters are not as strong as you'd expected.
But compared to?
I mean, this episode shows the Duras family was all associated with the Romulans, and it 's more like underground operations, cause they had to be extra careful, since this conflict is seriously dangerous if everyone finds out what is going on.
Ok. Just saw your scores. Yes. At least when I was a kid, this arc was too cool for me and I guess for a lot of us.
As an old man, I find it like, naive.
As a kid I loved the expansion on Klingon society. And they were more than just a warrior race. They were "normal", some of them were intellectual, artistic, they drank, laughed. This was something I really appreciated. When Riker served on board the Klingon ship, and how he got a new Klingon friend, and he was cool, i wanted to see him again drinking with Riker in 10 forward but didn't happen
I just look at the sisters as being rather bland / generic. I mean take for example Dr Cornelius in Star Wars He's in the movie for less than a minute but everybody remembers that iconic scene and dialogue. The sisters didn't really have anything like that nor were they very unique It might sound silly because it's more or less the same but I feel it would have been more interesting if they had been twins instead of just sisters
@@RabidNemo let's say they could have been any character, when we heard "Duras" we expected much more after what happened before with Worf..
His mate, ooohhh maaan.
Now, Duras sisters, I have to agree they were, mmmm like I said, it's just we expected to be something big.
Hey! I recognize Armus! I believe he played the lesser evolved black swamp creature from Creepshow 2.
Good review, thanks!
"Excellent tea."
worf bet on tasha, she dies. he teaches an ensign to fight, dies on first mission, bets on jadzia winning at tongo and loses... i see a pattern...
I'd do Lursa, but I'd be thinking of B'etor
I'm really enjoying your reviews as a long-time fan of The Next Generation. Even though it's a ways off, I invite you to watch the season 6 episode "Schisms" while keeping in mind the notion that Riker doesn't know what a hangover is; he just doesn't understand them. It completely restructures the plot in a way that doesn't deviate from his character and is absolutely hilarious.
Best holodeck episode. It's one of the few instances where the holodeck used as a tool rather than (low quality) escapism.
Another great review. I liked this episode
7:20. Why would you want to talk to Starfleet to ask for ideas on what to do. Has starfleet command ever made a wise decision on this show? And we know Picard loathes having to talk to the top brass (adm bitchnayev Et al)
Let's just acknowledge it. Most of the actors playing Klingons are doing black face.
Worfy>>>>
Great
What is worfs last name? Is it mogh? Does he have a last name?
"Rozhenko." But only because he's adopted.
Most Klingons don't have last names.
@@l.c.3118 unlike his son Alexander he never took the last name of Rozhenko, preferring Worf son of Mogh. In Picard he says he is Worf son of Mogh of the House of Martok, , and son of Sergei of House Rozhenko.
❤️❤️
Klingon episodes suck, I don't know why you guys love them so much.
