I like Kor and Kang from TOS! I've always found the Turtleheads of the later shows and films to be over the top a bit although I did like their new look in TMP!

John Colicos (Kor) & Michael Ansara (Kang) were both terrific in their Klingon roles.

Had the series been unable to get Ricardo Montalban for the role of Khan Noonien Singh in "Space Seed" (and RM was superb in that part, and in the feature film "The Wrath of Khan"); I could see Michael Ansara being cast as the 20th century superman in "Space Seed."

Ansara was good at playing ethnic warrior types, but I don't think he had the acting range or charisma to pull off the role of Khan. However, the man was born to play a Klingon!
