Neville Page Says ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Season 1 Klingons Were “A Salty Broth”
The legendary creature designer has a Kickstarter project about creativity, design, and how to make it in the entertainment industry.

The throw-away line by Worf in "Trials and Tribble-ations" was meant to be a wink-wink joke to the audience. The correct response to the writer who proposed the Augment Virus was "You're fired!", instead of "Let's beat this nonsensical idea to death over several episodes and series!!!!"
I think Enterprise's choice to follow up on Trials and Tribble-ations would've felt better justified to people if they'd had a season 5 and were able to feature the TOS Klingons more prominently. The cancellation meant that didn't have the opportunity to do anything with them after setting them up.
Well, they can't all be winners. And now any variation can be an Augment virus mutation or attempt to correct it.

Eh, SNW exists now. And they should have no problem showing DIS, TOS, TMP and TNG Klingons on screen all at once. Seems like the perfect opportunity to show IDIC does not just apply to the Federation.
The TMP ones are definitely the creepiest and scariest, so Wolfman is kind of appropriate.
My favorites, actually— they felt a bit more alien and less Flash Gordon than all the other types. (No shade on Flash Gordon intended; I grew up with it.)
When I was a kid, I would always hide under the blankets during the Klingon sequence in TMP. They scared the shit outta me.
I feel ya. I didn't hide under any blankets, but I refer to them as "vampire warriors" for a reason.
Just another incarnation of Q's son...
Tre'Lane, son of Tali'Ho.
While the implication is that Trelane is Q's son, I don't think he's the same son we saw on Voyager.
Yeah, that's my take. Trelane is Q's offspring from a later pairing. The Keegan de Lancie Q from VOY would be Trelane's older brother.
It would have been a nice nod to see a smoothy heads. But still. At this point maybe they should just stay away from 1966-2005 Trek. Disco did a nice season 5 follow up to TNG's The Chase. But we don't need to keep seeing it . Im starting to think they should just keep doing their own thing and now worry about anything from 1966-2005. They have pretty much changed everything at this point I'm hoping they end up doing an entire 5 year mission with Kirk and just retell every episode they can from TOS with major changes to each story and call it a day. That seems to me what Millennials and younger want at this point... 
They may make it look closer to TOS When Kirk takes over but I doubt it will be by much. Maybe a different color and different nacelle tips and a few other styling ques. But it will still look Mostly like what it does now. At this point I have really stopped caring. They can make it look like TMP Enterprise at the begining of a Kirk show and I wont care anymore..
....
Considering the Picard and Lower Decks series - they already haven't 'stayed away' from Berman era Trek. It's all the one Trek thread, from 1965 (ie TOS pilot The Cage) to now (2025).It would have been a nice nod to see a smoothy heads. But still.
