Star Trek: The Reimagining

I see your point on Kirk, but i think a Kirk written in 2002 would be a lot more tolerant and respectful of female officers than Kirk of the 60s.

In fact I almost think some of Pike would creep in there, especially with someone like Clooney playing him

How about Mel Gibson for Kirk?

Oh, I agree that Kirk would be more sensitive if written now. But even with that his relationship with a female officer would be different than a male (male bonding, etc.). I just don't see Kirk opening up to a female McCoy in the same way he opened up to Bones in TOS. That was the only point.

Yes and no, I see your point, but I have two or three fenmale friends that are so close and so trusted I tell them things I won't even tell my best male friend.

Still, if you can suggest a better Dr. McCoy, I am listening

With a more respectful Kirk, I think a female McCoy could be very interesting. I'm thinking here to one to my favourite series (apart from ST, of course ), The Avengers (NOT the movie). The Kirk/female McCoy relationship could be like the Steed/Mrs Peel, with some sexual tension indeed, but always very delicately hinted, and a huge complicity.
On the same train of thought, a female young Chekov could have with Kirk the relationship Tara King had with Steed later in the show (enamored admiration, but also never more than hinted).

Well that was my 2 eurocents anyway... what can I tell, I'm a sucker for some 60s and 70s British series
