What happened to the Klingons?

Actually, a couple of Klingons got their hands on a rather huge 20th. century electric mixer, one stuck his head in and got his head "blended". Long story short...it became a Klingon fad (of sorts). :p

And the dr. Soong in Enterprise is not the same as in TNG but his ancestor.

 

Where is this little tidbit to be found?

 

I have been resistent, and defiant when it comes to Enterprise, from the beginning I refused to watch the show, because personally I find it offensive to loyal Trek fans who really know their canon. But now I find myself watching more and eps in reruns, I am being assimilated into the collective so to speak. I still don't think it's all that good though.

I am with you man... I too am watching it, B 4 I thought it was un-loyal. But every one seems to have the new answers to questions that have been answered... And i need to keep up. The thing that makes me sick it that ENT actualy 'grows' on you if you let it...

Well, it could be a clue that they have different first names ;) Dr. Soong in Enterprise is dr. Arik Soong while in TNG his name is dr. Noonien Soongh.

Spiner began a three-episode arc featuring an ancestor of Noonien Soong, Dr. Arik Soong, a notorious figure of the 22nd century whose crimes now threaten to ignite a new Eugenics War.

Intereting note: Khan Noonien Singh was a hero of Arik Soong, who would of course then name his child after him.

 

As for the Klingons' return to ridges, it wasn't from surgery, but an eventual discovery in genetic engineering which returned their ridges (whether it removed the human DNA or not, I don't know). This also helps explain why the Klingons in the TOS movies (and Worf at the start of TNG) have differently shaped ridges from the later Klingons. It can be assumed that the final progression of the genetic trick for regaining ridges was discovered around the second season of TNG.

This is so simple- NOT ALL KLINGONS were infected. As they were considered outcasts the ones in the military joined ships where there were other affected klingons, and these are the ones nearer earth as thats where the affected colinies were, and the ones seen in TOS. Remember the bird of prey sent to destroy the colony to stop the spread- only some colonies were affected.

Why has noone yet mentione the fact that Kor, Kang and Koloth all have no ridges in TOS but by DS9 they have them? They are honoured warriors, surely they would have been early recipents of any physical surgery to make them seem "normal"?

 

And lets not forget about khaless. He appears in TOS w/o the ridges, then later in TNG with them.

It was a doppelganger created by the Excalbians from information telepathically extracted from the Enterprise's crew, reflecting their limited knowledge, beliefs and prejudices rather than reality. http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/The_Savage_Curtain
