"Then, too, it might be well to unify the team of Kirk and Spock a bit, by having them actively meet various menaces together with one saving the life of the other on occasion. The idea of this would be to get people to think of Kirk when they think of Spock."
The preceding is an excerpt from a letter from Isaac Asimov to Gene Rodenberry regarding how to capitalize upon the burgeoning popularity of Spock without marginalizing the all-important character of Kirk.
Naturally, Rodenberry took the advice of the sci-fi legend to heart.
"Your comments on Shatner and Spock were most interesting and I have passed them on to Gene Coon and others. We've followed one idea immediately, that of having Spock save his Captain's life, in an up-coming show. I will follow your advice about having them much more a team, standing more closely together. As for having Shatner play more varied roles, we have been looking in that direction and will continue to do so.
But I think the most important comment is that of keeping them a close team. Shatner will come off ahead by showing he is fond of the teenage idol; Spock will do well by displaying great loyalty to his Captain.
In a way it will give us one lead, the team."
Who would have thought this simple exchange would provide decades of fodder for perverted fangirls?

This is so cute. I particularly love Spock's expression. It's like I can see him thinking "Am I annoyed by this, or ... turned on?" *logical, invetibale chain of thought* "Aha. Fascinating. Definitely turned on."
