I don’t want a captain who thinks any day is a good day to die.

Not Worf—it’s Woof. Ask Lwaxana Troi.

Michael Dorn Confirms He’s Working on a ‘Star Trek: Captain Worf’ TV Series

I'd like to see a Klingon policy implemented towards radical islamicist terrorists.

I guess he needs some buvks to keep his personal F86 Sabre jet fueled and maintained.

There was a short lived, but highly rated cartoon called Captain Simian and the Space Monkeys, that used the voice talent of both Michael Dorn and Jerry Doyle of Babylon 5.

Unfortunately, most people didn’t look past the premise of the show to see the rather good science fiction within.

Likewise, when it was finally put out on DVD, the quality was awful, poorly designed and with no extras. The cheapest possible job, which is a pity for a series that could have been something of a cult favorite, like the spinoff Star Trek, the Animated Series, which had good enough writing to be considered canon to the series, by many.

So as captain he'll finally get some respect?

Worf gets denied again and again

Will he still have to wear that cake of dried cow pie on his forehead?

worf never became captain ... he ended up on an outpost somewhere

of course, this will just be another play on the black-man-as-leader motif they’ve been shoving down out throats since before 2008

This concept could be really good TV.
I love Klingons.

I wish him well, but I hope it's not a trend ...

Remaking old television shows (that have already been remade already) with the second bananas as leads ...

Just keep that little dork Alexander off the series and it will do fine

Always liked Worf. He was more Spartan than Klingon.

Just saw Dorn in a commercial during the football game (don’t remember what it was for). He looked really OLD.

Was he finally able to get a McDLT? It’s a regional thing. / Family Guy reference.

I’m not a big star trek geek, but I did like him. I’d watch that show.

If given a choice, my preference would be to keep anything Trek-related on the shelf and move forward with that really cool, proposed, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century series that never made it past the teaser/trailer stage.

For those who haven't seen, Teaser is here

Then, after having watched that, watch the 3-minute trailer
