Currently Playing: Did Gene Roddenberry flirt with his wife in a Star Trek script?! #strangenewworlds #shorts #startrek

When Gene Roddenberry penned the pilot of Star Trek, he had a strong vision for TV’s first women in authority… in multiple ways. Number One, played by Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, is an amazing character. We are grateful she gets to live on in Rebecca Romijn for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Join Gene and Majel’s son, Rod Roddenberry, as he looks through his mother’s shooting script for The Menagiere, aka The Cage, the original pilot for Star Trek. It’s filled with notes, corrections, and personal thoughts. #snw #thecage #classictv #womenintv #tos #captainpike #startrektheoriginalseries
