Yeah, I always thought he was kind of a douche, but I guess his heart is in the right place.
I think Shatner is complicated because (a) he's 95 years old, and can't be expected to be fully "in touch," and (b) he has definitely had some questionable people handling his social media over the years.
true, and he went with BEZOs into space as a tourist and became disappointed after, only for bezos to laugh for no reason after spraying him with ALCOHOL.
Yeah, it's shatner so ~~you~~ one expects him to be crass, and ~~you~~ one forgets he was the first star trek captain. and agreed with the ideas being shown on screen (unlike, IDK, Barclay's actor)
Huh? What's up with Barclay's actor?
Right wing propaganda guy. Dwight Sclutz
fits, hes always a wierdo that needs a psychological help in the show, probably a wierdo in real lfie. he played the same wierdo character on sg1, 1st season i believe as the "virtual reality guy"
Boy, do I wish I hadn't read this comment. This makes me sad to know.
What really gets to me is that he's fucking Mung Daal in Chowder, whose actor is was a literal kid. God knows what kind of poison lies he fed that boy. I really liked him in chowder too.
No more! I had no idea of that, either! I friggin loved that show! I am now double depressed. I wish to know no more!
@Skullgrid @Maestro Never meet your heroes.
I've actually done pretty good meeting my heroes, they're mostly down to earth types.
@Skullgrid @BadExampleMan
That speaks as much to your excellent choices in hero's as to the hero's themselves 🙂👍
Sooo many of them too. I just can't rewatch Hercules or Lois & Clark.
Aw man v.v
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck no. Barclay was my favorite minor character in anything ever. Today is a terrible day to have eyes
Jeffrey Hunter was the first Star Trek captain.
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realise the starring role of the TOS series , Captain Kirk was played by Jeffrey Hunter. How many episodes was he in?
Captain Christopher Pike was played by Jeffery Hunter in the first Star Trek series, but was only in the pilot or something before Shatner took the reins. If you were sincerely asking.
The first pilot that wasn't aired. It's what got turned into the Talos IV episode with Pike, they used that footage for his "dream" life
not really. When people are thinking about their favourite captain, especially before the revival, Jeff was never in the running. Hell, ~~Bakalar~~ Bakula is barely in the running.
I agree. It's one of those nerd pedantic facts that people throw out.
just, don't ask him how many horses he owns
