Star Trek: 10 Bloopers You Need To See

Poor old Worf! He was the first Klingon to serve in Starfleet, and yet most of his ideas were shot down in Shakespeare. Online, you can find entire compilations of Worf just being told 'no'.

The character was beloved, however, enough to warrant some inter-series mingling, and the actor who played the role – Michael Dorn – has certainly provided us with some fabulous outtakes.

There are numerous of Dorn from season two in which he flubs his lines, drops the f-bomb to the amusement of the rest of the cast, corpses, and desperately tries to clear his throat before a take – "Cup of water for Michael, please?" He even tries his best to join in with a rendition of the Irish song Phil the Fluter’s Ball with Gene Roddenberry, Barrie Ingham, and Patrick Stewart.

There is one Michael Dorn blooper that stands out above all the rest as a near perfect slip-of-the-tongue moment. It is, once more, from the filming of the episode Booby Trap. During the scene in which Picard, Data, and Worf are preparing to beam over to the thousand-year-old Promellian vessel, Picard makes the parallel with the pastime of building ships in bottles but gets no response from the others. He asks, "Good lord, didn’t anyone here build ships in bottles when they were boys?" The correct Worf line in reply is "I did not play with toys," but, in the outtake, Dorn utters the unforgettable, "I never played with boy…" The cast and crew descend into fits of laughter.

The season three Next Generation gag reel also provides us with certain hilarious outtakes from Whoopi Goldberg, who swears more than Kirsten Clancy on Captain Picard Day.
