Bill! Doesn't! Like! to LOSE!

In remembrance of Dick Clark, here's Bill's losing moment on $20,000 Pyramid, handled with Shatnerian grace and style.

Sorry, can't embed.

Esquire + Bill

In this month's Esquire magazine, Bill talks about being Jewish in Montreal, doing drugs in Amsterdam, success and failure, and missing his dogs and horses.

Read it here.



I think doing his very personal one-man show is making him more comfortable with self-revelation. He doesn't duck questions and turn them into jokes.

Hello?

You've probably wondering why we aren't posting 12-15 times a day about Bill's show on Broadway.

Well, that's because we're seeing it here in Chicago in 2 weeks and we don't want to know too much in advance.

But Bill! Is! ... EVERY...where.

Even on a stoop. Shtoop. Shtup.

Is Bill Coming to Your Town?

The Butt Girls have 2nd row seats in Chicago on March 16. We will be having a Very! Special! ... SHATMOY!

Tour dates posted here.

IMPORTANT: Check the website of your local venue. Even though it said tickets go on sale Feb. 3, Chicago has an American Express presale. The front row is already sold out. YIKES!

The Death of the Negotiator



Priceline is killing off the Negotiator as part of a rebranding. No word on Bill continuing as their spokesperson.

But the commercial is a hoot!

Bill Always Welcomes the Chance to "Go Native"

(Not to mention "going native" on Natalie Wood.)



And there's this analysis of such a movie from The Mary Sue:
"I’ll say right now that I would totally watch a badly cut together remake of Avatar that uses color-shifted clips from Star TrekWest Side Story, and The Longest Day, and laugh and laugh. This poster, like those that come after it, cut right to the heart of a cinematic time period and the taste of Hollywood at the time, to point out that if this story had shown up in that era, William Shatner would totally have gotten his way into a blue girl’s pants, and no better blue girl than the one who Hollywood already considered to be an virginal all-American sweetheart capable of passing for an ethnicity she clearly was not."
Word.

Bill's Signature Analyzed!

Kathi McKnight, a handwriting analyst, got Bill's autograph and posted her thoughts here.















"What an incredible visionary. The upper loops, (when properly placed!) have to do with the ability to visualize into the future, all the things we cannot see, touch or feel. Sounds pretty trekkie-like doesn't it!!"

Comanche Blanco Numero de Muerto

THIS IS A DISASTER .

Promo for "Star Trek: Generations" from 1992.

Bill's toupee looks painted on, Worf's forehead ridge was apparently purchased at a novelty store, and the announcer mispronounces Star Trek!

Apparently, one of Shatner's Rules is "Never let George Takei have the last word."

Attention, all hands!

You can now see "The Tenth Level" on YouTube. (Part 1 embedded here, go to youtube.com for the rest).

 This is an amazing movie with a great performance by Bill and a superfluous shoulder roll!

All together now: BILL! IS! EVERYWHERE!
