Go back even further! The cage almost canceled the entire show because a woman was merely implied to be captaining the ship for a quick while 😰😰

And NBC threw a tantrum because of Uhura's and Kirk's kiss, which was made more ridiculous because the backlash they expected never came. I wonder how often they self-censored without any reason.
