Dating error in "Birthright, Part I"?

I was just watching "Birthright, Part I", a sixth season episode (2369), and Worf says that Mogh died 25 years ago. But the Khitomer Massacre occurred in 2346. Did the producers mistakenly think that Mogh died at Narendra III in 2344?
 
I'd say 23 years is close enough. Most people round up or down when speaking of something where specificity isn't needed.
 
There is another dating error in "Birthright, Part II" and it's when that cute half klingon girl starts going out with Worf.:lol:

Agreed, I suspect we all time from time round up lemgths of time, when as you say we don't need to be specific.

+1.

The writer may have even meant to include the word "about", but it slipped their mind when typing up the script.
 
All lighter skinned actors portraying Klingons have dark makeup applied, going back to TOS too.

Then a few years later, after a forehead lift, she hooks up with Harry Kim.

Is it my imagination or does her skin look darker in Birthright?

Klingons usually got a darker makeup foundation.

Memory Alpha says the actress was also a runner-up for Kes on Voyager. Maybe the role of Harry's girlfriend was a consolation prize.

So they were going for hot and decided to settle for pleasant...:lol:

That's right! Particularly in that episode where they were all on the same ship fighting to feed some Entity. They all looked like they had charcoal on their faces.

You mean Kang's crew in "Day of the Dove"?

Yeah, they look like coal-miners that forgot to take a shower after their shift.:lol:
