Klingon change for season 2?
- Thread starter Roald

It's a big deal to me. It is an important part of their visual language (and there being some occasional bald Klingons before doesn't change that.) It is not about continuity or sense makery, but the feel of the species. Klingons should feel feral; as I have said many times before, they should look like werewolves, not like vampires. It's like sure, logically Bruce Wayne could decide that now Batman uses green suit instead of grey and black, but it would drastically alter the visual language of the character; it wouldn't feel the same any more.
I am very visual person, these sort of things matter to me more than to some other people.
Isn't it easier to chalk it up to the Klingon Empire being so old and vast that there are a multitude of Klingon Races out there which we probably haven't seen yet.
And that many of them are considered subordinate to the ones actually in charge at any particular moment?

I personally don't mind sarcasm
I really don't know why it hit a nerve with so many, I mean hair in general is a sure-fired thread winner. Maybe because we become invested in image. We like to think we are deeper than that but the visuals are part of the production. Whenever someone presents a pictorial of changed Klingon iterations, I get it. However Discovery placed itself only ten years before TOS, specifically referencing TOS. It does not surprise me at all people thought how are Discovery Klingons going to morph into totally different ones just a few years down the line. Apparently the hair issue alone is because they shaved 
I'm watching the Comic-Con panel, she gave the Season and Episode number for TNG:"Rightful Heir" heh.Hahaaa, what a nerd!
I love her.
No. But, the only one I can recall is the leader of the Into Darkness Klingon patrol.
I appreciate the explanation but it's definitely not the same for me. They still feel like Klingons, just another variation.
That's kind of my view as well.
There was a break out of lice (or little Hur'qs) at Q'onos elementary and it spread to the adults. Everyone had to use K'P24 and shave their heads to get rid of it.
Then there are the TMP Klingons, who look like they're balding. Where's the Hair Club for Men when it's needed the most?
That guy was a dick.
But how many?
Touché
It's ok. Khan killed him.
He wasn't bald, he was balding.
Seriously though, he looked fine. With his little 'stache and ponytail, I'd have dated him. I doubt many would care if the occasional Klingon was bald, it was DISCO's sudden all Klingons are bald that rankled.
