In the original Star Trek the Klingons were "just" the bad guy. They were pretty much the Russians of space (no insult intended against any Russians but that's what Klingons were compared to). I didn't found them very interesting. So, when Worf appeared on the bridge of the TNG Enterprise, well, let's just say I couldn't care less. Then came the episode Heart of Glory which immediately gave them more depth. But with Worf becomming a regular we now were in need of more information about the Klingons. This episode really made me take interest in them, as it shows and tells a lot about their culture. A very well written and executed episode with a good B-story to back it up. It's about learning and understanding the differences between species.
@finfan That was a very good episode indeed. Riker put a smile on my face more than once. Sometimes, to be part of a culture, you don't have to be accommodating and docile.
