Oh, my!
Quote from: S7MS427 on April 12, 2022, 03:53:14 PMI was of the belief early on that all of the main crew of the show should have been forcibly cloned so that we could have future episodes with them. At a minimum Shatner, DeForest Kelley, Leonard Nimoy, Walter Koenig, Nichelle Nicoles and James Doohan. And George Takei. (Maybe Takei's and Shatner's clones could be friends in an alternate reality.) Some of them were cremated unfortunately. But we can still harness Shatner's DNA whether he likes it or not. I want more episodes! Or, clone Shatner and create a clone when we actually have star ships and make him Captain. That would be an amazing kick in the head for something like that to happen.Quote from: deathsled on April 12, 2022, 02:29:12 PM
March 22 is the Shatner b-day I believe.
Deathsled, You believe correctly. March 22nd is the day. FWIW, fans have also assigned the same birthday to James T. Kirk.
Quote from: Side-Oilers on April 12, 2022, 03:14:58 PMThat is a great story, Van! Hilarious too with the communicator story. I love it!
I had lunch with Shatner at the Beverly Hills Four Seasons hotel about 20 years ago. Was arranged by a mutual friend. I was in development with Warner Brothers on a dramatic TV series I'd written, and was interested in meeting Shatner to gauge his interest in starring. The show would feature fast cars as part of the storyline.
He was a nice and polite guy, and showed interest in the project. The funny part was when he tried to make a phone call from the table, to his assistant Robin. Cell service, back then, was crappy in BH and the call kept dropping.
He finally got up from the table and, flip phone in hand (held out exactly like a Star Trek communicator) was walking around the restaurant repeatedly saying "Robin, come in. Robin, do you read me?" It was classic. Almost as good as if he'd asked her to beam him up.
The TV series never got made, and that was the first and last time I saw Shatner. He was more interested in talking about his horses than he was in anything to do with cars. But, like I said, he was a nice guy.

Growing up, Star Trek was my favorite TV show. Like you, I would race to the TV to see it on Thursday and then Friday nights. I was devastated when it got canceled. The icing on the cake? Shatner and I share the same birthday.
Quote from: 98SVT - was 06GT on April 07, 2022, 11:15:03 PMTo sell the red Hertz would be far worse than any divorce. It will be for sale in an estate sale I suspect. My estate. Who knows how long I have? Certainly not I. Unless some financial disaster should befall me before I kick my air addiction. Or some such other disaster I would not see on final approach. So 843 will come on the market in time.Quote from: honker on April 07, 2022, 04:24:07 PM
