Wait, I'm going to expose my idioticity and ask: Codependency in Star Trek? Any chance someone could explain please? (Or take a stab at it, since y'all aren't the OP?)

Honestly, I thnk Xena and Gabrielle are the only real example of co-dependency up there. Everyone else...(except Psych, because I;ve never seen it) either one or both have lives outside the relationship or one seems more invested in the relationship than the other.

In canon, anyway. Sam and Dean Winchester from the ealry seasons of Supernatural would have been a better example.

If you don't think House and Wilson are codependent, you either haven't seen very many episodes of House, or we're not watching the same show.

I think House and Wilson are actually. Because of the nature of the show, I would say Gus and Shawn (Psych) are too. But I agree with you on Supernatural, although I think codependency is still the case, even in season 7.

Not the OP and I don't see codependency in TOS, but Kirk and Spock are very codependent in the TOS based movies. Kirk pretty much sacrifices his son, the Enterprise and the lives of several other people for Spock. They even created a special vulcan word for their extreme codependency - t'hy'la.

(Anonymous) 2011-12-27 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
Kirk sacrifices the Enterprise, yes, but his son? That was totally an accident. For what it's worth, Kirk has made sacrifices to save McCoy too, and Spock? Totally managed to survive without Kirk in his life.

(Not gonna deny that t'hy'la has unfortunate parts to it, though.)

(Anonymous) 2011-12-27 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
and Spock? Totally managed to survive without Kirk in his life.

Surviving and living are two different things. I think the only one of those three who actually lived was McCoy.

Yeah, Spock "totally managed to survive" since bringing Kirk back from the dead wasn't an option in that case, but in the new movie, he did take ALOT of risks to ensure his younger counterpart had the opportunity to form "a friendship that would define them both" with the other Kirk. I agree with the anon commenter that he probably never really got over losing his friend.

I'm not sure if I would go far as to call them "co-dependent." House and Wilson, definitely. But Kirk and Spock? They are very, very intensely close to each other but not necessarily in such a dysfunctional way.

Yeah, I mean they're obviously close, like brothers, but I didn't see any of them as codependent.

late!OP is late:

I think I was possibly inserting my own personal headcanon in for ST?

I don't know, I've always viewed Spock/Kirk/McCoy as the holy trio of awesome (romantically or platonically). They're representatively superego/ego/id respectively, and I guess I sort of (personally, at least) saw them as inseparable, and well, not really "whole" without each other balancing the others' faults out.
