*Original Star Trek is the most influential filmic sci-fi ever to come along - surpassing everything else - including "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Star Wars" combined. And a large part of the reason is William Shatner himself. He's also the first fictional space voyager to also go into space for real - an incredible accomplishment in itself. And he did it at the age of 90! So clearly, there's a lot of the make-believe Captain James T. Kirk in the real-life William Shatner. Sincerely, a fan of the show since it first premiered on our old B&W Motorola television way back in 1966, when I was 12.*
Mr Shatner, I wish you to live at least 100 years in good health... I wish that you'd bless this planet with your presence for as long as it's possible! You are truly a hero of mine. Not only I love your acting, but your character, your vitality... it's so uplifting to see you talk about almost anything! Also, everyone knows your portrayal of Captain Kirk, but I always leved your guest starring in Columbo. Two great episodes, one even has Walter Koening in it, too! Timeless!
Bill has as yet outlived alot of actors and actresses in Trek. And he still works like some 20 year old and looks so young for his age. Sure he has luck. But more than that he has alotta talent and energy. Good for him. LLAP 🖖
I would like to thank all the Star Trek Captain . The writers and everybody. Because my mom had Alzheimer' This one TV station every night .They start off with the original, generation ,deep space nine, Voyager and then Enterprise And for those hours my mama would sit and watch them like she did when I was a kid. With me and my brother and sister She was really at peace in her mind when she watched them shows.😊
Hello Mr. Shatner, I met you at the 25th Anniversary Star Trek Convention..I handed you a red rose coming off the stage. Love all your works..loved you in TJ Hooker! 😍
Another great production! I love watching anything about Shatner, Star Trek and other too. Like Leonard Nimoy's documents is wonderful. I adore Chris Pine as Kirk. They could not have cast it better in my opinion. Also Zachary Quinto as Spock. The rest of the cast too. I LOVE the whole thing. But there will neever be another Kirk like Shatner's Kirk.
@@ELEKTROSKANSEN I’ve heard a lot of Star Trek fans find voyagers writing to be a bit inconsistent, and feel like the opportunity was somewhat wasted. I’m not sure I’d agree with the wasted opportunity but I agree it’s writing could be a bit variable at times, but on the whole a success.
If someone had written the material, he could have been such a long-running captain like Picard is. His crew could have done what Picard season 3 did, but in the 90s or early 2000s. He still could have been. Killing him off was pointless when Shatner is still alive. I'm just saying he should have me around this whole time.
Kate’s very clever she has Bills measure because he was interviewing her earlier and asking all the tough questions then afterwards she flipped the script on him. I learnt more about him as a person than I ever imagined possible because of this
A great show, but I think the theme song helped kill it. If they would have went Jerry Goldsmith like the rest of the series did, I'm sure it would have went on much longer
I think it'd be cool for the new legends for 7 of 9 it's captain. They have to go deep space nine and wind up in the mirror world with the original Captain Kirk the dark side and maybe the dark side of Catherine Janeway
I disagree about their view of love. I think that love comes before survival for some. look at a play like Romeo and Juliet, or the idea of a martyr shown throughout history. What is the point of surviving without love? Love and hope pushes us to fight, to keep going. When we lose it, we fall into depression. It is not the will to survive that comes before love, but love that comes before the will to survive.
That JJJerk flash-bang lens flares was NOT Star Trek. It was utter DREK. And that's only continued to be Drek ever since; disCRAPery, lower dorks and PEEcard were garbage. If I want Trek now, I watch "The Orville". If I want Kirk, I watch Shatner, not Pine; there is only one Kirk.

He got his start with appearing in Westerns.

Kate Mulgrew is always fantastically smart.
Whether he's Kirk or just "Bill", his swagger is off the charts!

I love that Kate Mulgrew is the guest but she ended up interviewing Shatner! LOL
Shatner MIGHT have made it about himself 😂
can't stand her
as he gets older, the twinkle gets brighter
I love Shatner, he’s a good soul. 🙂
He's prone to occasional moments of grandpa brain but he usually means well.
Hello Mr. Shatner, I met you at the 25th Anniversary Star Trek Convention..I handed you a red rose coming off the stage. Love all your works..loved you in TJ Hooker! 😍
Brilliant
Meeting him was on my bucket list too, which was achieved Adelaide Comicon 2013. Feels so good..Xx
This was brilliant. Love ya Bill
Why is it that when Bill said "I've won more than one Emmy" I KNEW Google would tell me that means 'two'.
😂
Wow.
Captains of the Enterprise.
How many hit series has Shatner been in? Most are lucky to be in one.

Kate Mulgrew is pretty smart and well spoken. And very genuine.
Captain Janeway and Voyager get too much heat.
Voyager is probably my favourite. Captain Janeway is amazing ❤️❤️❤️
It does? I always thought it was loved as much as other Trek shows of that era...

I hope that you can upload on youtube Avery's Brooks interview too. Being in Europe I can't see the interviews on Soutfactorytv :(
I am confused, is he supposed to interview her? Is she interviewing him?

Kirk and Janeway were the best Captains.
ARE
Cisco was one of my favorites as well.
I think maybe we should send Elizabeth a thank you card for sharing bill with us..
S**T my dad says was hilarious!
Anyone knows why star trek enterprise was that short? im still waiting at least 4 more seasons! =)
A great show, but I think the theme song helped kill it. If they would have went Jerry Goldsmith like the rest of the series did, I'm sure it would have went on much longer
The network changed hands and they ditched it
🎉we were robbed
10 years ago.
He has a strong root chakra.
When I was little, I wanted to be Captain Kirk... Kiss a different alien every week, and not have to marry ANY of them. 😏😉
Am I crazy to think that they look like brother and sister?
"I did finally win an emmy and actually more than one'' :D :D I understand why his co-stars hated him :D
I think it'd be cool for the new legends for 7 of 9 it's captain. They have to go deep space nine and wind up in the mirror world with the original Captain Kirk the dark side and maybe the dark side of Catherine Janeway
my eldest son's name is James
my 2nd son's name is William
get it
I'm sure your second son is grateful he didn't get named "Tiberias"...😉😂
@@richardadams4928 that's my third son ;)
Bill's the best
kate is a gorgeous woman
What........??????
My God the ego. It's like he took data's to know him was to love him speech and turned it into a movie about himself.

Twinkle hell! He's drunk and owes me ten bucks too!
04:16 He lavishes his sexual energy ... on his pets?
The amount of fake in this is astounding.
