    Another reason for losing Number One was apparently that - as Gene's sort-of-secret girl-friend (they were having an affair, IIRC) - the studio was reluctant to give Majel Barret such a prominent part as a lead cast member.

    BTW, if you watch the whole of The Cage, you'll see that Vulcans hadn't been written as the logical species they became (it was Number One who did all the logical thinking). Nimoy does some crazy emoting as Spock in that episode, by the standards of regular Spock's behaviour.
    I think Chuck Sonnenberg dug up a reference that said that Nimoy did that deliberately because the actor who played Pike was so stoic that it needed the contrast. Obviously that wasn't the case when Shatner came on board.

    Picard has always been Lawful Good. He does play Lawful Neutral and Neutral Good from time to time, only to use as a defense mechanism Reaction Formation and try to become the impossible pure ideal captain and then embody those traits. It is kinda what Picard is known for.

    Cool and this is one reason why I love alignment.

    I was rather surprised that the jerk named A.I. Soong wasn't an evil robot.

    well, the mechanical tentacles were either a reference to Mechanical Chtuluth, or just Control.
