We all know how awesome William Shatner is for his portrayal of Captain Kirk. But what I love about the guy is how he’s taken that character, his weird talking style, and stretched it as far as it can possibly go.
From Priceline to funny appearances on T.V. Shows and even his role on Boston Legal. This woman getting, slow talking persona of his has translated into a ton of laughs over the years.
What amazes me is that he’s being doing this schtick since the 70s.

I would have like to have seen his Dodgeball appearance, but aside from that, pretty good compilation.
There’s also Shatner singing “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” and “It was a Very Good Year”.

I guess this is sort of a Star Trek moment though.
