Shatner's "The Captains"

[Rico]

The Shat has been working on this for awhile now.  "Sounds like fun!"

That looks freakin' AWESOME!  Shatner interviewing the other Trek TV Captains?  SIGN ME UP! 

Shatner is a class-act; I love that he's able to have fun with his "The Shat" persona. The "Hey, it's Captain Spock" clip had me cracking up.

Can't wait to see it.

sounds good!
"hey! it's captian spock!" (reminds me of "i like the guy with the ears"... XD)

I just watched it, it's wonderful. A revealing and intimate look at Shatner and all of the Star Trek captains. It's actually quite touching at times, certainly gives some insight into Shatner's apparent dislike of fans way back when (he's a sweetheart now, was super nice to me and everyone around me). I was particular touched when all of the actors talked about the toll the long days on the set at Star Trek took on their personal lives, particularly Kate Mulgrew talking on how her kids still won't watch Voyager to this day, and Patrick Stewart lamenting the loss of his marriages. A+ stuff.

If you haven't watched it, you can sign up for a trial membership at the site below. I loved it.

Amy and I reviewed it on podcast Take Him With You.  We both loved it.  Very touching and insightful.  Good stuff.

Yeah, me too. But do we really have to sign up for that service?

I think it will be out on dvd eventually. It was broacast on this new channel EPIXHD that I don't get, so I signed up for this free trail. I assume it will run out eventually. It's a legitimte site though.

This is now on Netflix streaming and I watched it last night. Agree with all the above sentiments, it was very good. Kate is a snob, I would love to spend the weekend with Patrick, I would love to spend a week with Scott, Shatner continues to be the perfect study in narcissism, and Avery Brooks is completely out of his mind!

Something very wrong with Avery...good grief....watched it with Rick when I was up at his place.

I've still not been able to "find" this anywhere.

I like Avery Brooks as Sisco but sometimes his performance was so exaggerated it was a bit annoying. He had this whole affect going that I didn't always like. I get it he's an artists, but sometimes give it a rest.
