William Shatner turned 90 on March 22! Amazing. He has a TV series and a new movie.

I'm not a "Trekkie", but I started following him in "Boston Legal" (Denny Crane) with James Spader and then in the series where he travelled the world with George Foreman, Terry Bradshaw and Henry Winkler(really enjoyed this one) and I remember an old "Twilight Zone" where he was a passenger in a plane and he swore that someone was on the wing. Hope he lasts forever!

There was a rumor that he wanted to start a ladies' lingerie line. It failed when Shatner Panties were introduced.

Favorite line from Boston Legal, when trying to explain why he didn’t know a particular answer in court, “Judge, I’ve got mad cow!”

Why so amazing, Jerry? We're all going to get there and still be posting on the Hog, right?

No, the passenger in Twilight Zone was John Lithgowe (I think).

Loved Boston Legal. Best thing Shatner and Spader have done. Love the episode when they were married by the Supreme Court Judge, Scalia.

And since that episode, it’s very hard to book a fishing trip to that lodge

You're mistaken Rab-Eye. It WAS Shatner. Pull up William Shatner IMDB to verify.

Ava's Papa is correct, it was William Shatner and the gremlin was ripping the wing apart and it seemed that only William could see it.

I think he looks great at age 90. I hope we all look that good at that age.

William Shatner, played the character in Twilight Zone the TV series, John Lithgow, played the character in Twilight Zone the movie, so both are correct.

Maybe Lithgowe if there was a remake but it was definitely Shatner in “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet”, one of the most well known TZ episodes.
