I don't know if mainstream US television was ready for a strong gay character in the mid-nineties. Any future series could and probably should have a go.
I was thinking the other day about how bitter and gutterally Kim almost vomited the the words "THEY'RE HAVING SEX!!!!"
Two guys and one girl.
Oldest story in the galaxy.
Hmmm, he also signed on for a deep space assignment, leaving his "girlfriend" at home...
I still think we missed an opportunity to have Trek's first gay lead in Harry Kim.
