That is what I was trying to explain. The look that you are thinking about (let's call it the Worf look) was introduced in one of the movies featuring the original crew. Before that, the Klingons looked like human beings. You did a good job explaining it. I was just telling what I had done before I got your explanation. I was never a The Original Series fan. I was too young when that came out. I was turned off by its campiness. And the metaphor probably went over my head. I never really got into Star Trek until the Next Generation. I loved the original series when I first discovered it in reruns as a teenager, but nowadays I simply can't sit through an entire episode (and I've tried!).

Why do you think you cannot sit through an entire episode?

I never could sit through an entire episode of TOS. Never wanted to. I think it is funny to check out the reruns that are all over TV. But that is just when I am flipping the stations. Never sit and watch a whole episode.
