i love that Roddenberry just created this character for his wife, so she could have the perfect role for her amazing personality.. so of course she's an awesome character.. i mean that's REAL love baby..
I read that initial audiences thought she was mouthy and shouldnt try to act like a man.. we've come a little ways
somebody's talking shit, and you're repeating it
Sure. That someone is William Shatner: (From Wikipedia) William Shatner corroborated this in Star Trek Memories, and added that female viewers at test screenings hated the character as well.[11] Shatner noted that female viewers felt she was "pushy" and "annoying" and also thought that "Number One shouldn't be trying so hard to fit in with the men."[12]
