This is interesting. William Shatner is working a documentary where he interviews the Captains of the Star Trek series and movies.

I thought this was going to be about Nathan working with the Shat on something.

After the latest Star Trek movie I got to wondering if anyone wanted to create a new Star Trek TV series which timeline would they follow? Would following the original timeline still be okay or would following the timeline with the planet Volcan destroyed be more approporiate?

Shatner has amazing energy and drive for someone 80 years old. I was lucky to meet him and get a signed photo back in March at a sci fi con in Orlando. He wore blue jeans with a nice sportscoat, and tooled around in his canvas boat shoes. There was a genuine electric thrill shaking his hand and saying hello. I'm just a 58 year old big kid.

80 is yesterday's 50.

I think you're right about that. I feel like I'm 80 sometimes, usually in the morning.

Hell, I thought Shatner was going to guest host After The Catch, the Deadliest Catch discussion.

Well the original timeline has already been done right? I know you could just move farther along in time but I just feel like it's been worn out.

I don’t believe in definitive histories: the writing of history is and should be something that is ever changing and developing.

There's still plenty of galaxy to explore in the original timeline.

I guess it may come to which period of the Star Trek adventure a new series would focus on. If someone wanted to return to saga of Captain Kurt, there would be a new cast and a new timeline, from the movie, would free the writers from pre-existing canon.
All this is my wishful thinking that this latest Star Trek movie will create interest in a new TV series.

Nathan told the story at a convention that he was going out for a few drinks and a friend called him and told him to come over. Nathan said he might if he could find time but the friend insisted. He turns up at his friend's apartment and there's William Shatner! Nathan so geeked out in the retelling of it, was marvelous. Shatner found out Nathan was Canadian and said (Nathan repeated this in full-on Shatneresque voice) "This boy's from good stock."
