The best thing about Blood Oath is the fact they managed to get the original actors to reprise their iconic Klingon roles.

"Klingons do not laugh" "No Worf, YOU don't laugh..."

4:10 "I am Quark, son of Keldar, and I have come to answer the challenge of D'Ghor, son of… whatever."

Once More Unto the Breach is one of the best episodes ever. Those lines that Kor delivers to Worf just before holding off the Jem'Hadar actually made me cry, and his final sacrifice was incredible.

Way of the Warrior. Best Klingon episode in the trek series.

No "Once more into the Breach"? The aging and ailing Kor suffering from increasing senility, seeking an honorable death in battle? And Martok's dismissal of such because Kor had once been a pompous nobleman who had dismissed Martok from service due to his lowly birth and caste?

Matter of Honour - the part when an aggressive Klingon woman comes on to Riker. Someone asks if he wants her or the quieter Klingon woman instead. “Why not both?” Riker says. Wonderful moment!

The combination of Quark as Ferengi and his actions in "The House of Quark" were so great. As Ferengi he saw things from a complete different angle and when the time of confrontation came he did the best thing to prove that D'Ghor was complete without honor.

Once More Unto the Breach, R.I.P Kor

Can't remember the name of it, but the DS9 one where Sisko, Worf, Odo and O'Brien go Full Klingon to prove Gowron is a Changeling is a personal favorite

I just remember watching “Reunion” on tv for the first time and when Worf and Alexander and found K’Lar bleeding to death and dying and how with her last dying action brings Alexander and Worf’s hands together just before he screams. And when Crusher comes in with her staff, he tells his son to “stay with the doctor” then runs to his quarters, grabs his bath’leth and drops his starfleet combadge and you knew that Duras was a dead man. I remember watching that fight between Worf and Duras and I was like “don’t nobody stop him, this SOB needs to die” and when Worf slammed his bath’leth down in that killing blow right into Duras’ Throat I felt so satisfied for Worf.

I love Ezri's speech about the decay of the Klingon empire and how it spurs Worf to kill Gowron and make Martok chancellor.

I really liked Worf's 'wife/mate' K'ehleyr, I really wished she was in the series more. She was only in 2 episodes but she was awesome

“Gagh is always best when served live.” Disappointed to not see any TOS Klingon episodes on this list. My favorite is “Day of the Dove,” which introduced Kang.

I like the 2-parter where Worf joins a Romulan prison camp for Klingon POWs but the Romulan and Klingons in the camp became allies and turned the camp into more of a colony (albeit, with the Klingons as second-class-citizens) and the camp leader even married a Klingon and had a half-Klingon daughter and the 2nd episode is about Worf teaching the young Klingons more about Klingon culture and reminding the older ones of what they left behind.

"Gowron, with the craziest eyes in Starfleet" 😁

missing "DS9: Once more unto the Breach"

I'd like to thank the editor for the giant yellow arrow pointing out Worf's forehead ridges. 😂

I LOVED Enterprise's explanation for the TOS appearance of the Klingons. It was not only a good explanation, it was a damn good story!

DS9: The Way of the Warrior is one of the all-time best episodes. Plus, there were various other DS9 episodes which were like "Soldiers of the Empire" and took place almost entirely on the Rotarran.

These are all good choices! Love that House Of Quark made the cut! I suppose what qualifies as a "Klingon" episode is debatable, but Apocalypse Rising definitely is one of them. Surprised to not see Way Of The Warrior or one of the two Tribble episodes on there, although really only parts of those episodes deal heavily with the Klingons, so maybe that's why.

My favorite Klingon episode is definitely DS9's "Once more unto the Breach" where old Kor, now being roughly 180-200 years old, begins to show symptoms of dementia while serving on Martok's Rotarran. This episode gives us the Klingons how we love them, gives us a Klingon legacy character, it allows us a look on how Klingons deal with getting old and outliving their own legend, as well as giving a legendary warrior a worthy goodby - AWESOME! I still get teary eyed when the Rotarran officer narrates Kor's fight against the Jem'Hadar fleet, his victory and demise, and the following moments when the Klingon crew that ridiculed old Kor starts singing to his honor. Damn, I'm getting teary eyed just writing about it right now!😢

Reunion, Heart of Glory, A Matter of Honor, The House of Quark

Well back to Netflix to watch everything Klingon again 😍😍😍

If anyone's read the book "Excelsior: Trial By Fire", it tells the story of Kang, Koloth, Kur, Curzon Dax; and even Captain Sulu's hunt for the Albino Klingon. Nice to see that book's story come to an end in the episode Bloodoath. 😊😊

You're missing a trick by not having the video premiere at 17:01.

imagine having a hot wife and you die in the fight with Ferenigi while being drunk, and then on the other side you somehow find out your wife is prosperous and bangs with that Ferengi. Can`t think of more dishonor

Shame the retcon about the Klingon appearance was itself retconned by the existence of the ST: Discovery Klingons being uber ridged, let alone the three TOS Klingons who'd appeared in DS9 ridges and all lol

Once More Unto the Breach. Just makes want to sing in Klingon and shout "Qapla!!"

Tacking into the Wind where Worf duels Gowron was a great episode as well.

I would have included Tacking Into the Wind also with Worf and Gowron's story coming full circle.

I always liked "Judgement" from Enterprise, because it expanded that not all Klingons were warriors, brought Rura Penthe and J.G. Hertzler, who is the second best Klingon after Christopher Lloyd.

You should do Weyoun episodes, the actor portrayed some of the best characters in Star Trek series.

Soldiers of the Empire is probably my favorite Kilingon episode

Love the voyager one , were they were looking for their saviour . Neelix is so funny in it 😂

For those interested. The nr1 Klingon Riker befriends has an awesome trilogy of Star Trek novels dedicated to him. Basically about him and his command of the IKS Gorkon (if i recall the name correctly). If memory serves me it also has Worf's mindwiped brother in the crew.

Omg!! BEST WhatsCulture episode EVER!! Love the focus on the Klingons and (needless to say) BEST analysis on their culture. I've always loved TNG's episodes involving the Klingons. And by the looks of it, DS9 seems to focus more on them. Maybe I'll watch season 1 instead of an episode here and there. Keep up the great work, Guys. 😁

Sins of the Father was the best of all Klingon episodes, no contest. And a tip of the Bat'leth to Ronald Moore, who wrote a lot of the best NextGen and DS9 Klingon episodes.

now to listen to "hear sons of kahless"

Another excellent video Mr. Marcus. May I ask that one of the next videos cover the topic of the most glaring Star Trek continuity errors. Maybe differentiate between, Enterprise, TOS, DISCO. ,TNG, and beyond? Thank you sir.

Dude Worf’s fight with Duras is easily my favorite fight in all of Star Trek. I get a bit of a geekgasm watching it!

Does “way of the warrior” not count as a Klingon episode?

Great list, great channel. Keep it up!!

Marcus, what do you think of TNG's "Heart of Glory" in which Worf meets Klingons who are coping poorly with the Federation as allies? I thought this season 1 episode showed how great TNG would become.

No Way of the Warrior? Also, no TOS episodes like Day of the Dove? That being said, Worf killing Duras in Reunion is an "assimilate this" style high point for the character.

Good video helpful information

My favorite Klingon episodes.. Anything with GOWRON..

Great job, Marcus!

Can you imagine a half Klingon half Ferengi offspring? The strength of a Warrior with the cunning of a businessman.

great video

Absolutely agree with number one. That was a top notch story.

I know its not an episode, but Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered country is my favorite of all the films too actually. Also, I kinda liked ENT :Judgement, cause its so depressing, knowing that the lawyers view of the culture and his efforts are ultimately a failure.

Nice for a re-watch STILL GREAT CONTENT

Actually, I dispute the assertion that the Klingon head ridge discrepency was a plot hole which plagued the fandom and they desperately needed an answer for it. We all KNEW what the answer was- because the makeup budget for the original series wasn't high enough and they just weren't as ambitious with their alien designs, OK? We just rolled with it. Worf going "We do not discuss it with outsiders" was just a hilarious little joke they used to shrug it off. I hate when people go to extreme lengths to justify supposed "plot holes" that don't really bother anyone- most notably when Disney made an ENTIRE Star Wars movie to explain why the Death Star had even a single exploitable weakness in its design to make destroying it so "easy", even though hitting a 2m wide secondary thermal exhaust port with proton torpedies was hardly a cakewalk and every single pilot except Luke, Wedge and a single Y-Wing pilot bit the dust. Rogue One was a good movie, but I did NOT need to learn that the Death Star's creator was attempting to deliberately sabotage it, but only managed to add such a minor weakness. A New Hope worked just fine as it was, and so did the Klingons.

The Klingons are the best alien race in Star Trek.

Very surprised indeed that none of the TOS or TAS episodes were brought up. A personal favorite of mine is Errand of Mercy. True, neither side came out looking their best, but the Organians did raid the game and stop the fighting.

Hi Marcus, GOOD list But Like always I have my opinion, 5 - is the one when Warf and K'Ehleyr Poise at Captain and First officer to intercept the T'Ong 4 - Redemption 3 - Soldiers of the Empire 2- Affliction Divergence 1 - Blood Oath I do like the Episodes with General Martok or Chancellor Martok J. G. Hertzler ONE OF THE GREAT ACTOR in Star Trek. Thanks for sharing this list and stay health and be happy with the ones you love.

I was about to write your number 1 listing is incorrect. But you justify it really well. So you might have convinced me. Fair play👍

You just gotta love all episodes with Quark in it.

you did right about nr. 1

My favorite Klingon episode:THE WAY OF THE WORRIOR(PTS 1&2) from DS9.

"Heart of Glory" gets my vote

Ladies Grilka and Sirella are magnificent

I always thought it was Worf son of Mogh, not Worf son of Moe nice to know.

Rightful heir is my favorite

Today is a good day for a klingon list

A list on the top mirror universe episodes would be nice

The House of Duras HAD no honour!

DS9 Martok teaches Sisko about the glorious war that is marriage. First Contact, Worf's ship is all but destroyed attacking the Borg. We flash to the bridge in complete disorder. Worf calls out "Perhaps today IS a good day to die!" "Ramming Speed!" This dedication to duty. This fighting on to his last breath. I am reminded of Khan; To the last, I will grapple with thee... from Hell's heart, I stab at thee! For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!

The House of Quark , A Matter of Honor and Trials and Tribble-ations. :)

Post-hummusly lol

"Please let the chancellor know that Captain Jean-Luc Picard, his arbiter of Succession needs.. a favor." no other member of Starfleet held such sway over the High Council.

So was there another virus that caused them to mutate again for star trek discovery?

the rotaran only suceeded because jadzia brought blood wine!

I'm not Bipolar, I'm half Klingon. 👹

Why is there a snap from TNG The Emissary as the thumbnail for the video but it’s not in the top 10 at all. ?

Yah, Das war Sehr Gut!

This is the best 10 Best.

Great video would agree with almost all your choices however I would include Once More unto the Breach and maybe swap it for Blood Oath. Excellent end to Kor the dahar master.

"Klingons do not wear silk-satin pantyhose. At least, not while on duty."

the adult alexander one i loved he finally wasnt annoying little waste of time, and Riker going to the Klingon ship was good

What about DS9's "The Way Of The Warrior" parts 1 & 2!?!

Melota. Melooooooootaaaaaaaa! 🎶 WHAT IS THAT DREADFUL NOISE?

Great acting by Suzie Plakson(Cover Picture) here. Very talented Artist und not yet fully discovered. I'd like to see her as a "Captain " of her own Spaceship, with NO femiliar Faces or Stories, as a new SF-Serie.

I would have ranked "Sins of the Father" a bit higher.

As a young five year old in the mid 70's and seeing my first and favourite ST-TOS episode "Balance of Terror" and becoming a lifelong fan of the Romulan Star Empire, I think you need to do a Top Ten. LLAP 🤔 🌐 🖖

I saw one Klingon episode where it was on a Klingon ship and the Captain was old and they were going to a planet the captain had visited before on a bombing mission when the Klingon Empire was still a warring empire. They were suppose to run a peaceful mission, but the captain had a flashback and figured he was back in the past and had to complete this bombing mission. What episode was that?

Reunion" for TNG; Sons of Mogh" for DS9 💻

Also... Gowron had the "craziest eyes in Starfleet", apparently.

Um, where's "The Trouble with Tribbles"? Can't believe that episode isn't on the list.

My Top 5 1. Blood Oath DS9 2. Soldiers of the Empire DS9 3. The Sword of Kahless DS9 4.First Born TNG 5. Barge of the Dead VOY

Love the Empire😊

Hi, just added the 2020th like to this video, will someone take the video into this year? :) Greetings Juy Juka

You missed the death of Core in DS9. One of the best episodes of Deep Space Nine the death of core made me tear. Long live the empire

I love Klingons

He forgot "Sons and Daughters."

I'd give an honourable mention to Point of Light, the third episode from Discovery's second season. We get to see Klingon politics up close, get one of the best fight scenes and a bit of good old fashioned Klingon romance.

Talking about Gowron and saying the craziest eyes in starfleet. When was he ever in starfleet?

That's a soft e in Gre'thor.

MY personal list has Sons of Mogh, Way of the Warrior, Apocalypse rising, Redemption, and of course the House of Quark. I really loved Gowron, but in the end he turned out to be a real bastard... a BakTag?
