Harry,
Shatner is a guy that never really "got" star trek. what a representative... He never "got" science fiction (imo), even though he has written several "star trek" novellas. I think star trek was a job. but I think he has come to appreciate what star trek did for him.
as far as not wanting to watch yourself, I guess this is the way it is for some actors.. I read someone (probably on the net) that vincent d'onofrio has never watched any of his law and order shows.
but, what I like about Shatner (even if the guy doesn't get sci-fi).. is he is amazing the way he keeps recreating himself. And I like that he doesn't take himself too seriously, and he seems to be able to laugh at himself (all the way to the bank
).
He would probaby be fun at a party (he says people keep trying to get him to sing at parties.. HAHAHA).
hey.. what do I know? nada, zip, really.. just what I read and what i see.
but, that' my impression of Shatner.
hey, there is a new star trek movie coming out the end of 2008. I know you are waiting with bated breath, right? maybe shatner will sing on this one.. :twisted:
