And that's why: http://scifiwire.com/2010/04/shatner-sings-or-does-he.php This guy can do no wrong. He can enter the stage being drunk, make a complete fool of himself, ruin a classic song, but I STILL think he's the man! Please excuse me, I have to sacrifice a tribble on my Shatner altar now.
I've never liked William Shatner. The guy seems too full of himself. I liked the character of James T. Kirk a lot back before William Shatner tried to remake the character into a twisted model of his own personality. Generations, all the Shatner Star Trek novels, et cetera.
Of course he is. He is an arrogant, narcissistic asshole. But of the funny, entertaining sort. (And he was Captain Kirk, so no more critisism, please! )
