There is always a place for a guy that at least always knows his lines.

I hate the politics of the show, but I can’t help but laugh when I stop for a few minutes of a “Boston Legal” rerun on late nite TV. The character Shatner plays on that show, to me, epitomizes “vintage Shatner”.

Shatner must've set a record for relevancy in TV Land - he's been a fixture on television almost my entire life.

He was on early episodes of The Twilight Zone - '60 or '61? - fer cryin out loud.

Got to admire an aging actor who has managed to stay employed all these years.

Ya gotta respect the Shatner—he has spirit, guts, and (dare I say) talent. The guy is a living TV legend and still (arguably) in his prime. I’ll take him over a self-important flake like Robert Redford any day.

What a great piece. I like Shatner even more now.

I could barely get thru the first page of this interview. The reporter is a typical NY Times metro-tulip. I don’tknow why Shatner (who really is a great actor) would subject himself to the snipes he gets from this reporter.

He's managed to do what the majority of actor cannot, he makes a living at acting and a good one at that.

You have to respect someone that works as hard as he does.

He’s the essence of a true capitalist, whether he realizes it or approves of it or not.

He makes so much fun of himself in Free Enterprise it is hard not to like the guy. The one man rap musical iteration of Julie Cesar at the end performed by Shatner is worth watching all by itself.

He actually displayed talent, I think, in his early film The Intruder, directed by Roger Corman and written by Charles Beaumont. I saw the DVD just a few weeks ago.
