I think Zach was doomed because he was played by Rick Springfield, m'self.
Oh, god, seriously? Bwahahaha.
Inara: We thought we lost you. Mal: Well, I've been right here.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Some of the Trek novels have fanwanked the appearance differences in the Klingons to sort of racial or class differences. Like the imperial race looks one way, the soldiers look another.
That could have worked if they hadn't brought back Colicos' character and several pre-existing others as the bumpy-headed variety, I suppose. If they'd just done the Enterprise Klingons the old-style way, they could have left everything as it was and that fun bit from "Trials and Tribble-ations" could have stood without need for further explanation.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
So, wait, Dirk Benedict and Rick Springfield played brothers?
Yeah, okay, in a feathered-hair way I can see the resemblance.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
So, wait, Dirk Benedict and Rick Springfield played brothers?
No, Rick Springfield and Richard Hatch (no, not that one, the other one) played brothers.

I think it was Richard Hatch (the Apollo verson, not the reality show version) and Rick Springfield who played brothers.

Way to dash my A-Team Reunion Show hopes, you two. Okay, it would have been the bizarro crossover to end all crossovers, but you know they are remaking all the old TV shows these days. It could happen.

I didn't know there was a Zach in the original series, but yeah. Kind of doomed there, buddy.
Hee! Yep, and he dies in the first episode (if I rememember correctly).

Riiiight. And that really was Ethan Rayne disguised as Giles season 7.

Shhhhhhhhh!
Besides, the Klingon wank has yet to be contradicted by canon.
Unlike the whole Ethan-as-Giles wank.
