Even though T. Garr's character seemed silly, I got the impression that
she was quite intelligent.  If "Hollywood" didn't portray her  the  way
they usually show women, I think her character would have been quite an
asset if the show became a series.  I think the network could have made
a stab at the series.  Gary Seven would no doubt go around saving earth
but he also didn't want to stay on earth  longer  than  necessary.   He
made a reference when he transported down from the Enterprise, "Look at
them, how can they live like that" or something  to  that  effect.   He
could be shown trying to convince the race that prepared him to let him
return.  Remember, even the ST universe did not know of this race!

"Live Long and Prosper!"
