WARNING: This article contains SPOILERS for Star Trek: Picard season 3, episode 3, "Seventeen Seconds."With a record number of regular appearances in Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and Star Trek: Picard, Worf, Son of Mogh (Michael Dorn), has no shortage of great episodes to choose from. He was first intended as a minor character who would signify to audiences that the United Federation of Planets had finally set aside their differences with the Klingon Empire. However, when the TNG production team realized how much screen presence Michael Dorn had, they decided to expand his role further.
Worf's TNG status grew when Denise Crosby departed the role of Lieutenant Tasha Yar. Worf succeeded Tasha as the USS Enteprise-D's Security Chief and become a bona fide fan-favorite. So popular was Worf that he was brought into DS9 in order to boost the profile of the spinoff series. DS9 was a better show for Worf because despite his Klingon heritage being key to his DS9 assignment, it didn't define him in the same way it did in TNG. More recently, Worf's story has continued as he works alongside Commander Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd) to avert a Changeling conspiracy in Star Trek: Picard season 3. Here are Worf's ten best episodes from across his three Star Trek series.
