William Shatner on His Favorite Memories From Star Trek | TV Greats

[@DarthHLT]

93 years and still kicking. Wow. What a legend... LLAP

[@FlightSims-v4p]

I remember watching William Shatner in the 1970's when Star Trek and the Outer Limits was playing on reruns on TV. I am amazed he is still as virile as back then,

[@jryecart8017]

see him in 1958 film with YUL BRENNER, The Brothers Karamazov

[@ChrisEaston-oy5en]

he is one of my favorite actors.

[@simonleib1992]

I really admire Shatner 93 and still busy working. What a force of nature

[@mr.metamovies2419]

The man's 93 and SHARP AS A WHIP!!!

[@vistulacooper6802]

IKR??!!!! I'M IN LOVE WITH HIM. Always, lol

[@ibosquez5238]

HE'S RIDING A HORSE! Doesn't anyone have the guts to tell him that he can't ride a horse because it's not safe (not that he'd listen).

[@Summerof-gi5mq]

“Beam me up, Scotty” vanished from all tapes, new or old, William says he never said those words. Mandela Effect.

[@crystalheart9]

@@Summerof-gi5mq I know, where did it come from? I thought he said it.

[@Summerof-gi5mq]

@@crystalheart9 Yes he used to say “beam me Scotty” in almost every episode. Do you remember Walt Disney cartoon “Snow White”, where the witch says “Mirror mirror on the wall”...? Well, check the cartoon now, the witch says: “MAGIC MIRROR on the wall....”. Have you read the novel “Portrait of Dorian Gray”? Now the book morphed to “Picture of Dorian Gray”. Or the Lucy show, her husband used to say all the time: “Lucy you have some splainin to do”. Those words vanished from all tapes, new or old. If you are a fan of James Bond movies and you saw MOONRAKER then you probably remember Dolly and her braces... Well, check the scene now (where she and Jaws just meet), the braces are gone. Have you seen Disneys Cartoon “The Jungle Book”, there is a scene where the bear dances wearing a coconut bra. The scene is still there but the coconut bra is gone! The series “Star Trek” started with the intro: “Space THE final frontier”, now it is “Space, A final frontier”. And tons of other changes. Many people say that CERN is behind those changes. It’s partially true. It’s all about spiritual warfare, ex: Ephesians 6:12: - “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places”. To understand what exactly is this new “phenomenon” one has to read King James Bible, everything is explained there very well. It’s spiritual warfare, no more no less. Tons of people out there say there is no such thing as Mandela Effect, you just have bad memory. Never listen to what they say, they just want to block the truth. There are also sites on Google that say that lately people began to misremembering things. “Bridge OVER the River Kwai” is now “Bridge ON the River Kwai”.

Fantastic interview! I saw pictures this weekend of Bill visiting the official Star Trek Set Tour attraction in Ticonderoga, NY. He goes there every year to share stories with fans. And on a personal note, I had a 10 min zoom chat with Bill during Covid thanks to GalaxyCon Live. It was a wonderful conversation about making the most out of life... that our future can be a great adventure no matter how old we are!

[@crystalheart9]

How amazing! Jealous🤣

[@geoffjoffy]

I'm currently watching the original Star Trek again and it's as good as ever.

[@CaesarDarias]

I wish someone would get Shatner to watch the top five Star Trek episodes and record his running on-camera commentary. It would be a huge hit.

[@DavidJBuchner]

It really would. That's a great idea.

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

He said... write a big enough check... ;-P

[@Scripture-Man]

Oh YES, I really think the world NEEDS this! For so many reasons: 1. Star Trek is so iconic, it would be historically tragic not to have even one episode with commentary by Bill himself. 2. Watching it would probably jog his memory of things he'd forgotten and give us all some fresh stories/anecdotes 3. The trivia this man could share about that show would be unmatched to any other kind of commentary 4. It would be amazing to actually see Shatner really watch an episode for the first time in his life. 5. It would be so wonderful to know there are Trek episodes you can sit down and "watch with Shatner". 6. These recordings WOULD be a huge hit, surely financially profitable to anyone who organized it. (Personally I'd much rather have this than see Bill revise his character in a modern show.) 7. It would be the original series' ONLY commentary recorded by a member of the cast. Shatner and Nimoy did commentaries for some of the movies, but the only TOS commentaries we have are from a handful of writers. 8. I think it would give a sense of "full circle" for Bill to go back, near the end of his life, and revisit the beginning of his journey to superstardom

[@CaesarDarias]

Good list, Scripture-Man. It’s not talked about enough, but I think that many episodes had many outstanding acting performances. I am also a big fan of the cinematography and lighting of Jerry Finnerman who played a key part in creating the classic look. In fact, given the very low budget, what they pulled off with writing, sets, wardrobe, lack of fx, etc. was amazing.

[@Scripture-Man]

@@CaesarDarias Agreed. Almost miraculous. Every man and woman involved were all just there at the right time and place, and all their ideas came together so perfectly. :-)

[@rmstitanic8163]

What an icon, and a true Legend you are in your own life time. May you live long and prosper Mr Shatner.

[@paulleckner8235]

You said it, but we were thinking it.

[@RobertGraziose]

Shame about how Nemoy died though.

[@WinstonSmith19847]

I love that quote at the end.

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

Inspiring and definitely true in every way. I hope more people take it to their heart.

[@omnipop4936]

I got goosebumps as he was saying it.

[@lyrand6408]

His cognitive health and speech capabilities aren't slowed down dramatically despite his age (a very healthy brain basically). Blessed by God, he's a treasure.

[@RobertGraziose]

He probably blessed himself with good clean living.

[@stewartmcminn7773]

That's....because...he saved... His speech...early ...on

[@Summerof-gi5mq]

If you remember the old series, then you must remember “Beam me up Scotty”. Those words vanished from ALL Star Trek videos, new or old, William says he NEVER said it. It’s called the Mandela Effect.

Same here! I was 6 years old when ST first came on the air and he was my first crush on the show.

[@donaldkroth2579]

I met him at a con. For someone growing up at the beginning of the space race. That show was a hope for a better future than we have now. I still hope it'll happen. Bill, De, Len, Nichelle, George, Jim, Walter, Grace, Gene, Majel and those who were extras and guest stars on the show that gave us hope for a better tomorrow. Thank you!🙂🖖

Astonishingly, in such a personality driven career, at 93 Shatner has evolved into a sage with great wisdom! A role model that has not disappointed..

[@gregoriopalofuego9808]

"The City On The Edge of Forever" was the greatest Star Trek episode. If you've never seen it, you are in for a real treat. 🌌

[@davidmarshall7752]

It really just is--- aside form the awards, great atmosphere, amazing acting, it was written by the one & only Harlan Ellison.

[@cosmicfish1000]

Long Live Shatner!

[@PaulWallis]

Always great to watch William Shatner. He is an inspiration. Thank you for recording and posting this. Peace, Paul

[@Scripture-Man]

Incredible and wonderful that Captain Kirk himself is still with us and still on great form! Such a talent. Not often mentioned, but I love his two appearances in Columbo. “Fade in to Murder” is quite possibly my favorite Columbo episode. Nimoy's episode is also one of the very best.

[@Catmom2004]

Check out the Columbo episode with Leonard Nimoy It's incredible too

Shatner is such a versatile actor. James T. Kirk, T.J. Hooker, and Denny Crane. Three great characters of televison and film. And he nailed all three of them.

[@emperorsean1]

William Shatner still as sharp as ever. Would be great if William Shatner Captain Kirk came back somehow in a star trek movie.

[@paulleckner8235]

Amen. Health is wealth. He is articulate and answers questions. He said to boldly go where no one has gone before. William Shatner left us an ace that we can keep.

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

Hands down, absolutely amazing closing words of the man himself about good deeds and helping others. You know, like in the movie "Pay it foward". Bless you Mister Shatner. Speaking as a fan from (east) Germany who grew up with Star Trek since i watched a re-run on Sat1 back in 1988 when i was just ca. 4 years old (Star Trek was incredibly popular in the former GDR). One of the best things that happened to me in these early years of my life and some of my earliest vivid memories. I have nothing but the upmost respect for Mister Shatners works and his charities. 😊

[@dieterilg5162]

If you own a box set of the original Star Trek shows, google in which order the episodes were filmed and then watch them in that order because they did not air in the order they were filmed. Man Trap was the first episode to air but not the first to be produced. It's interesting to see how the show and characters evolved on their own and with each other.

I hope he lives another 10 years. That said, if they don't cast him in the next Star Trek movie, then they are severe db&gs. We may never get him again as Captain Kirk.
