RE: Star Trek Discovery: What is Up With Those Klingons?

in #startrek7 years ago

The appearance of the Star Trek Discovery Klingons has bothered me since the beginning of the series. Why do they look like that? The TNG DS9 Klingons were the best looking. I don't see why they couldn't look like that. Also when they speak Klingon it sounds different too. I would have also preferred if their story was set after Voyager. So far I like Discovery.

My order of favorites is:
TNG
DS9 / Voyager (shared second place)
TOS

Yeah, in the episode last night, the female Klingon had this really long skull and looked nothing like the females from other series. I don't know if it's supposed to be explained by a genetic mutation or that these Klingons are some other race. The thing is that"Kahless, the historical figure from the past, is portrayed to look more like Worf's type, so yeah.... weird.

I hope they’ll explain it at some point.
