93: Sins of the Father (3.17)

Synopsis: Our obligatory season Worf episode that further reveals how incredibly illogical his species behaves.

Memory Alpha Summary: Killing subordinates for offering suggestions seems short-sighted

Review:  I will never get past how stupidly violent and vengeful Klingon culture is (yet still, somehow well organized and powerful), but one great thing about this episode is that it marks the time Star Trek decided they could do a story arc.  Perhaps the show being more stable in the ratings helped this decision, but it was a good one.

Worf’s brother Kurn is believable and funny, a credit to Tony Todd, the guy who plays him.  The Klingon world is realized in awesome fashion.   It’s just too bad Worf’s culture proves that ‘honor’ is just a talking point for their politicians and really isn’t the driving force behind all decisions.

      1. Fine, fine… I guess we’ve definitely moved into the “not bad” territory now though.

        1. Oh certainly. I wouldn’t shut any of these episodes off. It sure seems like we would have hit the top 50% by now, but we’re not quite there yet.
