Denny Carne! Uno

great to see him back

Ughhh…Denny Crane! That’s what I get for saying the dreaded “first”…..isn’t it amazing how Bill keeps making comebacks? Even on the internet?

Speaking of comebacks, any chance for ONE more?

Hey, you can’t keep a good Shat down!

Shatner rules.

Welcome back Bill!

If only he’d move Shatnervision to a podcast or RSS feed….

Me never BILLieved™ ShatnerVision© to be cancelled. First of all, come on. He’s Shatner. Anyone else ever hear of Live Video without Shatner?

’nuff said. It was a “who needs who?” kinda sitution now wasn’t it? And what the world needs is more Shatner. Not just Live Video.

Reminds me of a time but I won’t discuss it here. Oh no. Far be it from me to steal the Shat’s thunder.

BEST!!

=h=

Shatner! Still the coolest cat in town!

And who pays the Bill? ;)

Bill. Love ya. No one here’s given up hope that you’ll be in STXI.

ps- Maybe ShatnerVision would do even better if you’d blow a few bucks on wardrobe??

Good to see that Shatnervision is back. Although I hear that Shatner isn’t going to be in it.

(ducks)

MAJOR NEWS FLASH!!!!

SPECIAL EVENT: Remastered “Menagerie” in Theatres!

Nov 13th only, Check startrek.com for info

I am so there….

Get to see what those uniform colors will look like on the big screen!!!

Very good, he’s already practising THE return…!

Yay!!! Great news!

Who do I hope shows up?? “The Women!!!”

13- Yep, it’s at several theatres in Atlanta.

Excellent!

His Shatness, His Excellence, His Hair, His Rebirth, welcome back!

I am so there.

Now get in the ruddy movie!! LOL

Even if they don’t put Shatner in the new movie … and even if the movie turns out great … whoever the new Kirk is will NEVER replace what this man has accomplished. I love the character of Kirk, and I’ll place my support behind the new guy (assuming he’s half good!) in his 3 films, or whatever his contribution turns out to be, but ultimately the new Kirk will always be in the Shat’s shadow. Shatner helped build Star Trek. He IS Star Trek! All hail the Caesar of the stars!!

Shatner RULES!!!

SHAT-NERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! :-D

Woot,, good to know Shatnervision will still be around,
now,, send us a clip saying your going to be in the next Trek!!

:-D

Gosh Bill lay off the donuts!

As much as I love TOS and Shatner’s contributions to Trek, I think it would be sad to see him on the big screen as big as fat Capt. Kirk.

Just like in today’s armed forces, future Starfleet officers need to be in good shape and within weight standards, or they will be discharged.

I think it’s very unrealistic that future Starship crews would be allowed to become so heavy and out of shape, yet still be allowed to serve.

I know many of you here could care less about Shatner’s weight, and would want him in the next movie regardless if he weighs 350lbs. Bu to me I prefer to fondly remember Shatner’s Capt Kirk in his prime- young, handsome, athletic and fit!

Mike :o

Who is better? Shatner or Vogel? *g*

For goodness sakes the man is pushing eighty years old! Let the man alone about his waistline! I mean, when I’m eighty… Well never-mind when I’m eight, I’m not Captain Kirk, but for goodness sakes let the man alone.

I just don’t see it as realistic for him to squeeze back into pants he left twenty years ago. In fact, at his age, I don’t see it as realistic for him to squeeze back into pants he was wearing five years ago…

He’s always going to be my hero. Well, he’s always going to be the man who played the character who was my hero, anyway – I am capable of differentiation between the two…

I say let the man wear grey sweatpants everyplace he goes at this point in his life, he’s earned the right.

Period.

You type well for a seven year old.
I say hear, hear. Denny Crane should wear sweat pants.

People ask, “what about the Shat’s wardrobe?”

And I say, “no sweat………..pants!”

Only kidding THX!!

You can’t keep The Shat down for long. And where does all this ‘sweat pants’ talk come from? He was wearing a Hanes pocket tee, fer chrissakes. For all we know, he could have been sitting there with his pants around his ankles. LOL

(Ha. Try and get THAT image out of your mind now. :D)

As Kahless would say.

SoH guys need Daq get a yIn

ba-dum TSH!!!

The Shat’s back. “And speaking of Shatner, Betty White just shatner pants”.

Nice to see the video rantings are not going away after all.
Shatnervision has provided me way too much entertainment regarding Shatner’s Star Trek Movie casting negotiations. At one point he told people to call Paramount! Thats so rich! The man is part Denny Crane!
Wait to we get closer to November, we are all sure to see some good nuggets of BS & strategy served up shatner style! Just Love it!

When I look at Shatner, the words “nationa treasure” come to mind … I’m not sure if I’m thinking of Canada or the United States …

You’re right, because “Genius doesn’t work on an assembly line basis. You can’t simply say, Today I will be brilliant”.

– Shatner helped build Star Trek. He IS Star Trek! All hail the Caesar of the stars!! –

Hail!!

Re 37 Iowagirl,,,

I agree,, !

also,,,

Theres that certain magic Mr Shatner has ,,as he suits up and walks out as Kirk, and has that interaction with his crew.

yes Mr Shatner is a tad older now,,, much like ALOT of his fans as well
we all change,and Im sure your weight has changed over the years too, so lets just tone it down abit now please people.

Lets just keep in mind, If Mr Shatner suits up as Kirk in the next Trek,
it will be a sci fi event that will be bigger than when Star Wars came out in 1977.

Or,, ( if god forbid),,that doesnt happen,Im sure he will also kick arse as
the great Denny Crane.

:-D

Shatner and Capt Kirk are your heroes? You are kidding right?

# 39

Capt. Kirk is not your hero and you do not respect Shatner’s unique contribution to Star Trek? Sorry, my friend, you’re lost – try the knitting group next door!

We should all look that good as we approach the high side of 80. Those who are criticizing his appearance are a bunch of boobs.

#41 – Totally right! Shatner has always looked fantastic for his age! Compare him to most 76 year olds, and his appearance, energy, and mental attitude are all to be envied. In fact, I’d say that since about the 1970’s, he’s been able to pass for being a decade younger. We should all be so lucky.

He’s older now than De Kelley and Jimmy Doohan were in TUC! See what I mean?

This is what pisses me off about a new movie with a new cast, the original Trek actors can never be replaced, period.
Actually I think I’m more pissed that Phase II never went or at the least TV movies, because the original cast deserved more than 79 episodes and 6 movies they should’ve been in a lot more Trek, what a tragedy!

Looks like the Scottish guy who looked like Hiro from Heroes did a great job with his campaign. Well done!

#37 I agree I’m not against a new Kirk at all. One things for sure tho, I won’t feel goose bumps seeing Mike Vogel (or anyone else, suited up as Kirk) There are no warm feelings or emotions associated with anyone else in that role that would compare to seeing Shatner on that screen one last time as Captain Kirk. That alone is worth the price of admission.

As for the fat comments, waistline etc, nothing new since the Simpsons did that Parody, the only difference being the Simpsons was funny.

The late Jimmy Doohan said at a convention in the UK back in 92 I think “You don’t care if we’re fat and old, you just want to see us again”. I believe he appeared twice after that as Scotty again, putting in a stellar performance, and proved his point.

Fascinating that he is wearing the more woolly toupee here and not the more balding one her wears more usually nowadays

dear gladys,

thanks for the cheery note regarding the ping pong bald headed man..
it came just when i needed it, hope all is well on your end,

its hot and sticky here in Romulus today!

love

Shatner does not wear a hair piece, he went to Bosley Hair Replacement and got plugs of hair from the back of his head and put them up top.

My dear old Dad who looks like our dear old Shat had it done himself and now looks like a new man.

this is not an advert, by the by.

;-)

He´s the man! Hail the Captain!

#47 “got plugs”

The Shat did not get hair transplants. He has been bald since before filming TOS in the 1960’s. Back then he wore a very good toupee, but nowadays it appears to be a very good weave or “hair system”.

Hair, more or less, or none at all – I don’t care,
weight, more or less, grown in girth – I don’t care,
wardrobe, pants – I give you on it my hands
– I don’t care
because once put back
into the right unifom
all cynics will become forlorn
because Shat will put on them
a bag.
