Oh come now, all you need to do is look at Shatner's body of work since Generations...

Like the hit show he's on right now and his multiple Emmys? Arguably his best work ever?

...and you can see why the answer is self evident.

Agreed. Glad you're with me.

This only proves my point. Boston Legal started off as, and has escalated even more-so, into a very broad comedy that is almost unwatchable these days. Denny Crane is basically Bill Shatner or a reasonable facsimile of his more recent public persona as a caricature. Shatner in ST:Generations was also Kirk in the same vein. Either way its nothing like the Shatner/Kirk of TOS, and never will be.

RAMA

Well, if he shows up at the last minute, you'll just have to deal, I guess.

COGLEY

I'll be fine with the young Kirk appearing...just as long as Shatner's not in a cameo hawking Priceline.com at Starfleet Academy.

RAMA

Yeah, I'm sure they would go the Priceline.com route. Because that just makes incredible sense.

COGLEY

About as much sense as the Nexus made, and as much sense as Denny Crane pulling guns on people in open courtrooms...

Uh...yeah, what Cogley said.

'Cause, honestly...I just want to see how far we can squish quoted text.

Just wanted to be the first to say I told you so.
