So before I even started at the beginning, I watched "Blood Oath" (S02E19), which I posted about recently. Naturally, as a Trekkie since more than a decade before TNG, this one has plenty of charms for me. But it brings a bit of closure in a certain sense. The first episode I can ever remember seeing is "The Squire of Gothos." And while it may not be the same character, seeing the end of Koloth brings something full circle.
The performances by the three Klingons were excellent. John Colicos, who also played Baltar in Battlestar Galactica, was a spectacularly colorful washed-up Kor. But Kor was always expressive. The episode more or less began and ended with him singing. (And apparently dying off camera, unlike the other two.)
Of the originals, Kor is by far my favorite, though I liked all three. But I was also quite impressed by Michael Ansara as an older, wiser Kang. I really enjoyed his voice & sometimes had a difficult time connecting it with the harder voice of the earlier Kang.
Anyway, achievement unlocked.
