  • There are probably more than 40 clips, but two of them had to be cut short due to UA-cam copyright issues. In fact, this video was taken down a couple of years ago by YT for copyright reasons -- and it might happen again -- so watch it while you still can.

    William Shatner is a wonderful actor.
    Not everything he has tried worked but he's had the courage to try where other's wouldn't even make the attempt. Early in his career he was on an episode of One Step Beyond call ed The Promise and he was absolutely extraordinary. His performance has remained with me since I saw that episode as part of that series. His career has been nothing short of an amazing adventure that he is still part of.

"Alfred Hitchcock Presents" ... "Police Story" ... "Mission Impossible" ... let me just say that William Shatner is by far one of the best actors in movie, cinema history ... he has more than 250 film and television credits under his belt and has appeared in /hosted in / participated in more than 475 different programs like commercials, television shows, specials , occasions, presentations , Wow 😳 the man is an Icon 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

    Minor clarification @ 16:47. There are 3 series with similar titles that all started in 1969:
    -The Bold Ones: The New Doctors
    -The Bold Ones: The Lawyers
    -The Bold Ones: The Protectors
    (The Bold Ones: The Senator first aired in 1970)
    Shatner was on The New Doctors, in the episode entitled “Tightrope to Tomorrow,” that aired in 1973 (check out those chops) and not 1970 as indicated in this video.

    Great job, Fred!
    2:30 - I'd never seen Shatner & Jack Klugman act together before, but it's not surprising given both their classic tv careers.
    3:35 - David White, aka "Larry Tate", also had a great classic tv career.
    4:25 - I've seen him on THRILLER at least once when it was on MeTV.
    6:05 - I think he played the younger Preston in the original program that led to the creation of THE DEFENDERS.
    7:15 - I think this is from the show after Efrem Zimbalist, Jr. was left as the only cast member starting fall 1963.
    8:05 - Denver Pyle in a rare appearance w/o his beard.
    11:18 - I never got into THE OUTER LIMITS as much as TWILIGHT ZONE. I think it was just a bit too weird for me.
    14:24 - Universal seems to be particularly picky about copyright claims, even in fair use, which this is.
    17:52 - It's nice to see Mariette Hartley turn up here too.
    20:06 - Lee Majors has done pretty well to have at least 4 tv series that lasted more than a season.
    21:48 - Larry Storch in what seems to be a rare dramatic appearance.
    Shatner also starred in a series called BARBARY COAST around 1975.

    Maybe he overacted a bit at time but nobody can denies he had three thousands ton of charisma, even back in the 50's. Not much actors in history could have rivalise with him on this matter. For me he is at the same level as Brando, Errol Flynn and Connery.

    The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, the hairpieces, the pauses in the delivery of lines, the shout face, the gremlin, the devil's' cards of the future, the wavy palm tree monster, the courage to take on some pretty tacky roles and make something of them.
