     A comparision of "The Cage" to "Where No Man Has
     Gone Before" ( the two pilots ) points out some of the changes Roddenberry
     considered necessary.
     ...
     The doctor (Boyce?)
     was too Marcus Welbyish, while McCoy's downhomeness is counterbalanced by
     his cynicism an activity in so many landing parties...

You won't find this out by comparing "The Cage" to "WNMHGB", as McCoy
wasn't in the latter, either.  He was not added until after both pilots.
I think the first episode he filmed was the one with the Salt Vampire
(arg, I should be able to remember its title, but it escapes me).
