Critical and Fan Reception
Worf is a popular character among fans. The episode "Heart of Glory", which focuses on Worf and his relationship to other Klingons, is credited with planting "many seeds for successive Klingon storylines ... and new insights into Klingon culture".
In 1995, with TNG over, the writers of DS9 came up with the idea of adding Worf to the cast in response to pressure to boost ratings.
Filk artists Ookla the Mok included a song about Worf entitled "Mr. W" on their 2003 album Oh Okay LA.
Musician Voltaire wrote a song called "Worf's Rap" for his EP Banned on Vulcan.
