Colin Boyd in Star Trek, William Shatner
Happy birthday to the original James T. Kirk and so far the only T.J. Hooker. We don't generally mention celebrity birthdays here at The Big Picture, but since we are talking about the Priceline Negotiator, I figured we could make an exception.
William Shatner is 78 years old today, and you can make fun of his weight if you want, but if I look that good and if I'm that hip at 58, I'd take that action. Shat's first notable role was as Ranger Bob on Howdy Doody 55 years ago, and since then, despite the overacting and all the rest, he continues to get plenty of work and rack up nominations for Boston Legal.
But he'll always be linked to Star Trek and Captain Kirk, so because it's his birthday, please enjoy the worst fight scene ever:
