Are Worf episodes even few? Seems like he’s just under Picard and Data in terms of focus. He gets to be the focus of a whole season ending two-parter and gets multiple arcs throughout the series. More then Troi, Geordie, and Crusher for sure.

There’s plenty of Troi, Beverley and Geordie episodes in the mix, and worf episodes are typically excellent if few.
But I think the big three you mention dominate the story lines as they’re running things whenever a story isn’t about a particular crew member

There’s heart of Glory, sins of the father, redemption & birthright for worf and his heritage I think. And parallels which is just about worf.
It’s not many unless I’m missing some.

My friend you’re missing many. After quick look-through I’m coming up with: The Bonding, Reunion, Ethics, A Fistfull of Data’s, Rightful Heir, Homeward, and Firstborn. Worf also gets a bunch of B-plot focus like In Family. He’s the opposite of Riker where he gets hardly any focus at the beginning of the series, but more and more as the series progresses.

The funny thing about the Troi episodes are that the best ones with her in them are when she isn’t being a counselor.

I feel like every Worf episode was them trying to remind you that he’s supposed to be a bad ass, even though he gets his ass handed to him every other episode to show how much more bad ass the enemy of the week is.

Worf may be a badass, but there are many that are just badder than he is. But as the Jem Hadar guy said “I cannot defeat this man, I can only kill him”.
