Featured review
Another great Klingon episode
The Duras family challenges Gowron's right to lead the Klingon Empire.
This is another enjoyable Klingon episode with a number of strong scenes of political intrigue.
The plot is a compelling depiction of the struggle to fill a power vacuum and has strong character drama, which as ever in these types of episode is led by Worf. It all unfolds in a series of entertaining scenes and ends with a great hook for season five.
Worf's arc continues superbly with him looking to restore honour to his family name. In doing so he gets heavily involved in Klingon politics and is very enjoyable to watch.
Captain Picard is caught up in it all and has a number of excellent leadership moments. All his exchanges with Worf and other Klingons are excellent.
Although Gowron was introduced in a previous episode he has a far bigger part here and proves to be an entertaining character. The Duras sisters are also good value for their screen time.
All cast members are great, particularly Michael Dorn, Patrick Stewart and Robert O'Reilly.
