I won't judge Discovery for taking a swing as they say, they had big ideas and went for it. Fair play. While I never minded the rework as much as some others perhaps, I did think they went a bit far and it was too much unto Orcs territory. I do think their intial compromise in season 2 of disc was already pretty fine by giving them hair back and kinda soften their features to look less Orc like.
But having seeing the latest version, I do think that SNW have got right here. I do however hope that the Klingons keep some of their traits from disco in other respects. Mainly not being all about GLORY at all times and always act like a bunch of old, drinking sailors.
Discovery did some really interesting things with Klingon culture. I dearly hope L'Rell pops up on SNW.
At one point in the episode I thought she would. I’m kinda betting she’s a surprise cameo this season if they’re doing a Klingon/Federation/Gorn “threat of war” story. Imagine she shows up to find a way to secretly aid Starfleet like she did for Disco S2 finale.
Assuming she remains in power, they're going to have to have her openly turn on the Federation at some point, in order to establish the TOS cold war. I hope we get to see how that comes about.
Same. I hope we have not seen the last of her.
Yes L'Rell was a pretty memorable character and the actor is very cool
